medium plan solidworks

[solidbies]

hello to all are a neophyte in this field,
For example, a cable polygon of "n" sides and thickness "s" can be extracted the average plane in some way ? that is, a cross section that affects the average plane.
thanks for the availability.

environment part? design environment?
to change measures and sides?

then always apply those things already said:
version of solid in profile
an image (also made with paint) clarifies the concept without requiring fancy flights
no one is in your head and you have to give as much information as possible
you have to do the tutorials

I have misunderstood perhaps, I attach a drawing to make clarity. I would like to get the red line.View attachment 48028

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

and less bad I begged an image because you explained yourself terrible.
Red can't be a plan. a plane is formed by a straight line, can not be a circle having other shape.
what you want to do you get by doing an external or internal geometry offset with a measurement and then manage this measurement with a similar equation measure=thickness/2

Can it be so massive? I'm trying to explain myself to her.

Also that of the construction segments is a method, but if you change the number of sides and the other two geometries are not offset (from the image I don't understand) you have to redesign ex novo.
There are also other methods that go well, each with its pros and cons.

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

another method is this:
draws only a polygon, draws a line of construction of the size of your thickness, do a polygon offset, make the offset share guided and constraints this at the average point of the construction line.
extrude with the subtle option and once closed the function you do the equality between the subtle thickness of the function and the share of the construction line.
the advantage of this method is that if you have to reverse the direction of thickness you just need a click in the function and if you have to change the number of sides of the polygon you do it once only

I'm self-esteemed because I didn't understand what you want to get:
the extruded surface of the red circle? bho
the solid inside the red circle?
the solid outside the red circle?
Just the red circle? That's enough to drink

 

[solidbies]

what we really want to do is start from a solid already generated and lead it back to a 3d design of the average axis to carry out fem analysis.

the problem with what is proposed is that we do not have a design of origin already defined but the final shape is the result of a series of solidworks processing.

allego screen of the element.

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

that nice to give information a lot to the kilo and never all at once.

at the end of the tree create a sketch and make a convert entity of geometry then with the offset you get the median geometry

the problem with what is proposed is that we do not have a design of origin already defined but the final shape is the result of a series of solidworks processing.

I didn't understand the meaning of this sentence. Meanwhile what does a design of origin already defined, then assuming that you mean a file with an imported solid body what changes with having a body made by functions? always a body finds you.
I said that I think I understand what you need, because it has to do with the fem, and it has nothing to do with plans or with medium axes.
but mine remain supposition until you can explain well with the correct terms the request*.

*request that with the images of the #11 post, which has nothing to do with that of the #4 post, and clearly exposed would be resolved practically immediately.
