Hi friends welcome back to CADable. In this tutorial, we will model chain links in SOLIDWORKS2020 and later we will render it in Keyshot9. This exercise contains the following features: 1) Basic 2D Sketch 2) Sweep Boss 3) Flex (Twisting) 4) Curve Driven Pattern 4) Appearance 5) Keyshot (Render) It is a good exercise for beginners and it will be a good practice for beginners. I have divided this tutorial into two parts. In the first part we will model pipe elbow in SOLIDWORKS. In the 2nd part, we will do basic rendering using Keyshot via Keyshot add-in. Kindly use play pause technique for practice. I have attached files in the description for practice. Feel free to ask your queries in comment section. I will try to answer each and every question. Keep practicing as practice makes a man perfect. #solidworkschainlink #solidworkschains #keyshotchains #CADable #solidworkswithkeyshot For Files: https://grabcad.com/library/chain-links-6 Follow our Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/CADable​

Z Heights Skim and Plunge distance provide variable control of rapid move heights within a component. These operate in conjunction with Safe Z and Start Z to minimize slow and unnecessary movement of the tool in fresh air while machining the component form. Skim distance – An incremental distance above the model at which rapid moves occur from the end of one tool track to the start of the next. The tool rapids across the model clearing the highest point along its route by the Skim value. Plunge distance – An incremental distance above the local component surface where a downward rapid movement of a tool changes to plunge rate.

Links To provide for more efficient movement of the tool across the component the link moves that connect adjacent tool tracks can be defined in several different ways. Short/Long Threshold - This defines the distance limit up to which the Short - Links apply. Any move from the end of a tool track to the start of the next, which exceeds this distance is defined as a Long - Link move. For Short links the available options include Safe Z, Incremental, Skim, On Surface, Stepdown, Straight, and Circular Arc. For Long links the available options include Safe Z, Incremental, and Skim. Safe links apply only at the start and end of a toolpath the available options being Safe Z, Incremental, and Skim. For applications where a machine control system will permit arc fitting of rapid moves the Arc Fit Rapid Moves box can be ticked along with a suitable Radius based on the active tool diameter TDU (Of particular benefit to High Speed Machining). •Activate the toolpath 1_1 created earlier in the Leads section. •Set the Leads In and Out to None, if not already set. Press Apply.
