Last update: 17.07.2025

Connect.subtract_volumes(part_id, target_volumes, cutter_volumes, params)

Subtract cutter volumes from target volumes. Volumes should be computed prior to calling this function. If multiple parts are being merged to form a single part, then volumes should be computed for each part prior to merging. Use compute_closed_volumes to do so.

  • Parameters: part_id : Id of part containing target and cutter volumes for subtract operation.

    target_volumes : Ids of target volumes.

    cutter_volumes : Ids of cutter volumes.

    params : Parameters to control subtraction of volumes.

  • Returns: SubtractVolumesResults : Returns the SubtractVolumesResults.

  • Return type: SubtractVolumesResults

Examples

>>> results = connect.subtract_volumes(part_id, target_volumes, cutter_volumes, params)
