Description
Return height × tan(draftRadians) for signed offset with nonnegative height and abs(angle) < π/2.
Ideal product geometry maps dimensions into lengths, areas, or coordinates under a stated shape model. A dimension ratio does not by itself establish manufacturability, strength, or usability.
Return height × tan(draftRadians) for signed offset with nonnegative height and abs(angle) < π/2.
When to use this tool
Use Enclosure Draft Face Offset when you need one explicit product-geometry component.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter height, draftRadians. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read offset. Use the output convention below.

| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| height | Height | Required. Finite number; minimum 0. |
| draftRadians | Draft Radians | Required. Finite number. |
| Output field | Interpretation | Returned shape |
|---|---|---|
| offset | Offset | Required. Finite number. |

}Limitations and assumptions
- This is one planar draft projection, not a full enclosure, mold-release analysis, or manufacturing recommendation.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
- Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Numeric signed-zero results are exported as zero.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Use the complete design model, material data, tolerances, and physical verification for engineering decisions.
