Knurling

This command allows you to create a strait or crossed knurling on a cylindrical face of a shape.

Creation stages / Use:

Click the icon or select Shape > Other Operations > Knurling... command from the drop-down menu.

Select the cylindrical face to knurl.
Select the type of knurling you wish to create: straight or crossed.
Enter the pitch or the slots count and the angular orientation of the knurling.
Validate.

The created knurling is a single texture wrap. It does not physically modify the geometry of the part. As a result, knurling will only appear on shadowed views in the draft.

Available Options:

Pitch/Slot count:

This option allows you to control either the knurling pitch (distance between each slot) or the slot number to split on the face.

Angle:

You are able to specify the angular orientation of the knurling.
