BobCad function to create webbing ?

[Ed from NY]

Hi all,

I seem to recall a demo or a list of features where BobCad offered a function to do webbing. This would be removing pockets of material while keeping ridges in triangular shapes, a 90 degree pattern, or in the direction of the stress.

Does this function exist or am I just confused? I'm using V28 in a 3-axis mill.

Thanks!

Only thing I think that might be what you want is under "Dimension > Cross Hatch"

It sounds like he's describing those guys that were discussing "modeling knurl"....but its hard to tell. Maybe an example image of what he means.

A surface slice planar with a stepover larger than the tool would leave "strips" also...

Hi, this is what I was talking about. My solids were crashing when doing it by hand. Eventually I managed to finish them up.

Hey Ed. Looks like you got it going.

I know naming convention varies but in this particular instance "webbing" would be suited to "ribbing" or "ribs"...

FYI...

In V28, for your image, i probably would have used "extrude cut" on a solid, with the 2d pattern of pockets.

Anyway....

Actually, I see that Fusion is calling it "Webbing".... So webbing it is! lol

Still "ribs" or "ribbing" to us old timers Burr All in the terminology

Was "ribs" before Autocad and/or Fusion was ever thought of

Lol.... at the time, he was a bit older than me. I WAS in my late 20's early 30's. He was probably closer to my age now. (I'm 55)...

Not best friends or anything. Just acquaintances.

There you go. No mystery! 😨
