# Example: Flange with Bolt Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
Create a circular flange plate with bolt holes using polar array.
|
||||
|
||||
## Setup
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
drawing_new()
|
||||
template_apply_layers("mechanical")
|
||||
# Creates: OUTLINE, CENTERLINE, HIDDEN, DIMENSIONS, NOTES, SECTION, DETAIL
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Draw Flange Outline
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
layer_set_current("OUTLINE")
|
||||
|
||||
# Outer flange circle (diameter 200mm)
|
||||
entity_create_circle(cx=0, cy=0, radius=100)
|
||||
# Returns: {handle: "F1", ...}
|
||||
|
||||
# Inner bore (diameter 50mm)
|
||||
entity_create_circle(cx=0, cy=0, radius=25)
|
||||
# Returns: {handle: "F2", ...}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Add Centerlines
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
layer_set_current("CENTERLINE")
|
||||
|
||||
# Horizontal centerline
|
||||
entity_create_line(x1=-120, y1=0, x2=120, y2=0, linetype="CENTER")
|
||||
|
||||
# Vertical centerline
|
||||
entity_create_line(x1=0, y1=-120, x2=0, y2=120, linetype="CENTER")
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Create Bolt Hole Pattern
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
layer_set_current("OUTLINE")
|
||||
|
||||
# First bolt hole on bolt circle (PCD = 150mm diameter, so radius = 75mm)
|
||||
entity_create_circle(cx=75, cy=0, radius=6)
|
||||
# Returns: {handle: "B1", ...}
|
||||
|
||||
# Create polar array: 6 holes evenly spaced
|
||||
entity_array_polar(handle="B1", center_x=0, center_y=0, count=6, angle=360)
|
||||
# Returns: list of 5 new handles (original + 5 copies = 6 total)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Add Dimensions
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
layer_set_current("DIMENSIONS")
|
||||
|
||||
# Outer diameter
|
||||
dimension_diameter(x1=-100, y1=0, x2=100, y2=0)
|
||||
|
||||
# Inner bore diameter
|
||||
dimension_diameter(x1=-25, y1=0, x2=25, y2=0)
|
||||
|
||||
# Bolt circle diameter
|
||||
dimension_radius(center_x=0, center_y=0, radius=75, angle=45)
|
||||
|
||||
# Bolt hole diameter
|
||||
dimension_diameter(x1=69, y1=0, x2=81, y2=0)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Add Notes
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
layer_set_current("NOTES")
|
||||
|
||||
entity_create_mtext(
|
||||
text="FLANGE PLATE\P6x M12 HOLES ON PCD 150\PMATERIAL: SS304",
|
||||
x=-120, y=-140,
|
||||
width=240, height=5
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Create Block from Bolt Hole
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
# Select all bolt hole entities and create a reusable block
|
||||
# (Get handles from the array result)
|
||||
block_create_from_entities(
|
||||
name="BOLT_PATTERN_6x150",
|
||||
handles=["B1", ...], # all bolt hole handles
|
||||
base_x=0, base_y=0
|
||||
)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Verify
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
analysis_entity_stats()
|
||||
# Expected: circles, lines, dimensions, mtext
|
||||
|
||||
analysis_bounding_box()
|
||||
# Expected: approximately -120 to 120 in both axes
