SGcylhinge
by Tim C. Lueth, SG-Lib Toolbox: SolidGeometry 5.6 - Automatic Design
Introduced first in SolidGeometry 5.4, Creation date: 2024-05-28, Last change: 2025-09-15
Creates a piano hinge as a joint
Description
Tested on bambulab X1C in May 2024 with R=1.5 and R=1 and R=0.8
The current function supports 1.5mm and 1.2mm but not yet 1 mm or 0.8mm
Radius < 1mm require an automatic change of the angle.
The nozzel ist still most 0.4mm. 0.6~D=1.2 mm are just 3 layers
=====================
Diese Funktion und auch das Konzept von Drehgelenken ist sehr mächtig, aber ohne Beispiele nur sehr schwer verständlich, da die Scharniere verspannt werden müssen.
