Revolve

This function allows the user to create geometry based off of a rotational sweep around an axis

Usage

Profiles

The selected profiles that will be rotated around the axis to create the 3D Lattice structure

Axis

The axis around which the profiles will be swept

Structure type

This refers to the unit cell structure that will be used to create the revolved geometry. For more information on lattice generation, read more here in the 'unit-cell' section

Revolve Rotation

This refers to the amount (in degrees) of rotation the revolve function will do (i.e: the 'portion' of the circle)

Revolve steps

This refers to the number of repetitions the profile will be drawn along the revolution. This can be scene as a 'resolution of sorts'

Remarks

The revolve function can easily create sharp angles along the revolution which can be 'impossible' to build for some production processes. We recommend you run the repair function to prevent those issues
