Sine Wave

Holtzapffel J6-36 Rosette

The J6-36 rosette is a series of small sine waves, superimposed on a few lobes of sine waves. In the case of this rosette, there are 36 sine wave lobes superposed onto 6 larger sine wave lobes.

Aspect Value Comments
Pattern Sine waves, superposed onto each other sine wave lobes.
Pattern Repeated 6 times x 6 times
Target Diameter
for Rosette Design 		2”
  • A smaller diameter on the object results in surfaces which have sharper curves at the apexes of the curves.

  • A larger diameter on the object reverses this.

  • An amplitude adjuster can be used to modify these effects.
Phasing Holes 1/8 lobe
Works For End Cutting ☑ Near side cutting
☑ Far side cutting, or using rear rubber column
Side Cutting ☑ Near side cutting
☑ Far side cutting, or using rear rubber column
Complementary Rosettes

Consider pairing this rosette with one (or more) of these.

  • The cuts in the center show how points on the shape have become more pointy.

  • The cuts around the outside show how the shapes are reversing this, becoming more convex.
