design a corrugated tube

[Stes]

Hey, guys.
I would have a little problem: how do you draw a corrugated tube?

In essence it is a normal round tube that presents a continuous crushing-solco of the external part of step and variable depth. . I just don't know where to do this.

Any suggestions?

use loft? ?

to draw the corrugated tube draws you like a comb in the sketch, I placed you just an image to make you understand (very coarse), then you will define the sketch as you say that this tube is crushed, execute a revolution, after which you perform a series of lofts to represent the step groove and variable depth

Thank you very much.

sweep e series penso vadano bene

But do you really need it? suck a lot of memory for something that design does not need. if anything attacks a bitmap as you do for threads.

Bye to all,
I have not found the forum for the presentation so I take advantage of it to greet you all.
My name is adele and I write from roma.
Today my problem with autocad is inherent to the problem in question, that is to draw a tube (in my case of corrugated type) in 2d, starting from a default trajectory and a straight standard block.
Now, I ask you if this function exists, or if I have to do the drawing "by free hand".
Hi.

Hi.

I think you should put the question in the autocad section,
If you want to introduce yourself to us, the presentation link is at the top of the inventor forum pagehttp://www.cad3d.it/forum1/showthread.php?t=132

I copied the question in the autocad section.

Hello, welcome.

I answer here because in the autocad forum I can't find it! according to me you can try with the command divides:
draws a block that represents a ring of the corrugated tube, draws the trajectory with a single spline, uses the divid command and when it asks number of segments write b (block), put the name of the newly designed block and, in the end, put an appropriate number of blocks.
try and see if it's your case....

perfect, the only problem is that you'll have to be careful not to bend too tight, no rings overlap. . . .
