3d object winding

[pietro_c]

Hello everyone, I would need help with the winding function: In practice I am working on the model of a ring that has a circumference on the top, the problem is that I would like both circumferences of which the ring is made were made by circular profile, the point is that since it is a ring, the circumference on the top I would like to follow the curvature of the ring itself. I don't know if this is clear, but in case, is there a way to do this? Thank you!

Did you do a file draft?
can you have an image of what you want to do or did you do?
are you familiar with the software?

I attach this model to show how the ring is composed. must be like this but using a circular profile. Thanks for the answer.

Now that you were there you could attach the file... (write the software version in the profile)
instead of making the revolution of a rectangular section make a round section

I did this by wrapping a 2d sketch. the problem is that I would like to follow the upper circumference the curvature of the ring, but the upper circumference must be done with a circular sweep.

the plaque at the top of this example follows the curvature of the ring? In that case, yes, like this, only that plate must be made with the same circular profile of the ring itself and must then be filled with the geometry of the ring I posted.

Look, I'm still putting you an image with front and side views. If you put a note on it, a couple of lines on it might be better.

I'm sorry if I didn't do it identical to the photo you posted, but you know I'm working who pays me precedes. .

There's no problem, it's okay, but at this point I have a doubt, how did you make the plaque?

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

No problem, no problem.

Luckily. I was worried. . .

How did you make the plaque?

revolution on the a-a axis of a shape that follows the profile of the ring. Obviously I threw it there as an idea since from the photo you posted (on external link between each other) the view is almost parallel to the plate and therefore you understand very little as it is done.
giving clear information is indispensable when asking for help. Yours so far have not been

following your advice I managed to get what I wanted. Thank you.
But now I have another question: how do I carry the 3d model from sw for example to maya, but keeping the texture that saves on sw? or at least is there a way that allows me to export even the texture? Thank you!
