Drawing Rules Annotation Surface Finish Symbol

Drawing Rules Annotation Surface Finish Symbol

A surface finish symbol rule consists of separate functions to control individual elements of the surface finish symbol.

The functions can be used individually, to control just that element of the SF Symbol, or together to control the whole of the SF Symbol.

When used together the functions are separated using the pipe bar |.

Syntax to set the Symbol

"SETSYMBOL( [SymbolIndexNumber] , [SurfaceTextureIndexNumber] , [AllAround] )"

Where

SymbolIndexNumber is the index number of the required symbol (see chart below)

SurfaceTextureIndexNumber is the index number of the required texture symbol (see chart below)

AllAround is either True or False (see chart below)

Surface Finish Symbol	Symbol Index Number	Surface Texture Symbol	Surface Texture Index Number	All Around	All Around Value
	0	n/a	0		False
	0	n/a	0		True
	1	n/a	0		False
	1	n/a	0		True
	2	n/a	0		False
	2	n/a	0		True
	3	n/a	0	n/a	False
	4	n/a	0	n/a	False
	5	n/a	0	n/a	False
	6	n/a	0	n/a	False
	7	n/a	0	n/a	False
	8	n/a	3	n/a	False
	9		3	n/a	False
	9		4	n/a	False
	9		5	n/a	False
	9		6	n/a	False

SetSymbol Examples

Syntax to set Values

"SETTEXT( [PositionIndexNumber] , [Text] )"

Where

PositionIndexNumber is the index number for the required position of the value to display (see chart below).

Text is the value to display.

Standard	JIS	JIS Basic/ JIS Machininig Prohibited	Description	Position Index Number
			Material Removal Allowance	1
			Production Method	2
			Sampling Length	3
			Other Roughness Value	4
			Maximum Roughness Roughness Rz/Rmax	5
			Minimum Roughness Roughness Ra	6
			Roughness Spacing	7
