DOC3.13.8 RIM

The ‘Rim’ function allows a profile to be added to the upper edge of the piece or kitchen worktop.
It is mainly used to lower the internal cut-outs of kitchen worktops by a certain amount so that a sink can be installed.
The tool used to perform this working is the Milling cutter.
The interface for this function is similar to the following image:

Parameters

Plunge

The depth at which the cut is to be made.
The plunge value cannot be greater than the material thickness.

Distance

Allows the desired distance from the side of the piece to be specified. Positive, negative and zero values are allowed.

  • A neutral value (0) creates a rim at the same level as the polygon cuts.

  • A positive value positions the rim inside the piece, creating additional adjacent rims if necessary.

  • A negative value positions the rim outside the piece, spacing it away from the polygon cuts.

Executing the working

NOTE

The working can be applied by pressing the button to the left of the appropriate cut in the polygon list.
A red icon with an 'X' indicates that the working cannot be applied to the desired cut.

A rim will be applied around the entire polygon of a selected cut, regardless of where the cut is selected.
The following is an example of a rim with a positive distance parameter value:

NOTE

If the rim distance is greater than the diameter of the milling cutter used for the working, multiple adjacent rim passes will be performed.
