Bevel type 37 is a Y-bevel with a tight connection (varying angle) of the lower part of the bevel contour. Normally, the resulting edge will be X-shaped

Figure 1:46. Bevel type 37.
Relevant parameters: a, b, NOSE, GAP
Varying parameter: b (NB: a is fixed in this case!)
|
| NOSE | <1 |
Means that NOSE is defined as factor to be multiplied by the actual plate thickness to get the height of the nose. |
|
NOSE > 0 |
Means that the height of the actual toe (the lower part of the bevel contour), |
|
NOSE < 0 |
Means the nose height is calculated as T- ABS(NOSE) (T is plate thickness), that means, the nose height is defined by the distance from the positive side to the knuckle point of the nose. |
|
(for example, NOSE=0.5 means that the "knee" of the bevel is in the middle of the plate) |
|
|
CON>0: |
The positive side of the bevel is normally supposed to be turned upwards (as in the figure above). |
|
CON<0: |
The positive side should be turned downwards. |
In this case b = CON.
