Contour path calculator

Poorly dimensioned drawing? Enter what it says - the missing points drop out. Including the tangent points of radius and chamfer.

X values: Angle: Rows:

Leave blank what you don't know. Angle and length describe the segment from the previous point to here - for point 1 they stay empty. Direction angle: 0° = towards +Z (right), 90° = towards +X (away from the center), 180° = towards −Z (left, the normal case), −90° = towards the center.

Chamfer: Enter only the size (2) for equal legs - at a square shoulder that is exactly 2×45°. At an angled corner this gives the angle bisector, not 45°. If you need a specific chamfer angle there, add it as on the drawing: 2×45. The angle follows the same convention as selected above.

How it's meant to work

Example: The drawing gives Ø30, Z−20, a 30° taper and Ø50, the end at Z−60. Where the taper ends isn't stated.

Row 1: Ø30, Z0 - row 2: Ø30, Z−20, corner radius 3 - row 3: Ø50, Z empty, angle 30 (drawing angle), corner chamfer 1.5 - row 4: Ø50, Z−60.

Result: the taper ends at Z−37.32, the R3 starts at Z−19.196 and the whole path is defined.

Note: all cutting and material values are guide values. The tool or machine manufacturer's recommendations are decisive.

The calculator also runs in the workshop without a connection: app and desktop version
