Bye to all,
I press that I am new here, so I apologize in advance for any involuntary non-compliance with the lines of the forum.
I use it for work create parametric 2, but I can certainly not feel like an expert.
I have a problem with the modeling of a cylindrical tubular piece on which I would like to make a helical quarry by means of a cylindrical cog.
At the moment I’m making the quarry a little farraginous so I was wondering if there was no simple tool to draw my piece.
the cylindrical tube has a helical groove that affects all the thickness and in a view on a perpendicular plane at the axis of the piece it covers an angle of about 45° (so the helical groove does not even turn).
the quarry can be thought of on universal milling machine with the piece mounted on universal divider and horizontal axis and parallel to the longitudinal direction of the table of the machine. the cutter has a vertical axis and properly binds the rotation of the piece with the longitudinal advancement of the table the mill realizes the quarry maintaining the perpendicular axis and intersecting the axis of the piece.
the quarry thus realized has the lateral surfaces at a distance of course equal to the diameter of the shank mill and in the beginning and end points of the quarry has two circular traits left by the mill in the points where it enters and exits from the piece.
Is there a tool in clay to achieve this quickly? Maybe a kind of helical sweep that makes a helical path to a cylinder (which represents my frieze) that I would then use to remove material from my circular tube.
I kindly ask for help and remain waiting.
