Description

Creates a simple parametric torus, with position, angle1, angle2, angle3, radius1 and radius2 as parameters.

How to use

In the Part workbench click on the torus icon . The torus will be positioned at origin (point 0,0,0) on creation. The angle parameters (angle1, angle2, angle3), as well as the radius parameter ( radius1 , radius2) parameters permit to parametrize the torus. The angle parameters permit to make a portion of torus instead of a full one (they are set to 360° by default), the radius 1 and 2 define respectively the size of the hole and the ring thickness of the torus.

  • Radius 1: Radius of the circle around which the disc circulate
  • Radius 2: Radius of the disc defining the form of the torus
  • Angle 1: 1nd angle to cut / define the disc of the torus
  • Angle 2: 2nd angle to cut / define the disc of the torus
  • Angle 3: 3rd angle to define the circumference of the torus.

as well as the standard set of placement parameters. The pictures below give a visual overview of the parameters antecedently mentioned:

The parameter radius 1 has a value of 20 mm.

The parameter radius 2 has a value of 2 mm.

The parameter angle 1 has a value of -90°. Notice that, the "angle measure" tool cannot display negative angle. Considered the displayed value in picture as "-90°".

The parameter angle 2 has a value of 90°.

The parameter angle 3 has a value of 90°.
