modeling with loft

[volaff]

Hello everyone, I should model in solidworks 2010 the following piece.

I had thought of creating a loft between section 1 and section 2 (linear magari and then making the excavation) and then using another loft between section 2 and section 3 (closed to rectangle maybe).

is there a simpler way? or is intuition correct?


Good evening to all!

you can also do it with the loft function, but it seems easier to get it with other functions, unfortunately I only have the 2012 version and I can not give you more ideas, but I would let the loft stay.

I don't know how you would do it.
I would do so (I also did some tests):
- parallelepiped-base extrusion
-extrusion cylinder, including base
-design of the 2 "t" section, one on the surface of the parallelepipedo and the other tangent at the base of the cylinder, and of the 2 routes (perhaps only one)
-loft with newly made sketches
- Stop extruding the conjunction of the cord with the cylinder
- various fittings

I look forward to your opinion

 

[volaff]

ps: what do you mean by "extrusion cylinder, including the baser"?

 

[simone03031986]

the upper part of the piece, the one that has diameter 52 with hole 32 and base 64, the one near the "3" that you wrote...

 

[Mauri:66]

volaff, I would do that. :wink:

 

[volaff]

Thank you very much.

ps: you used those 4 floors to achieve the extrusion of the support head.
Great! !

But why don't I think about this alone?

 

[volaff]

pps: perhaps to save you could make a rib to create the full part with radius 55 up to the head.
I'll try!

 

[simone03031986]

I also tried with my method, but I must admit that mauri66 is better for simplicity and quality. . .

 

[volaff]

Thank you so much to all!! !

ps:I will try using both methods and adding something of mine!!

 

[volaff]

thanks simone but I can't open the file because you have a future version of the software.

only one question: on the design there is a quota of 64 compared to the base that mauri:66 did not use: indicates the distance from the base to the tilted face (horizontal position)?

Thank you very much.

ps: I tried to model as suggested by mauri:66 but I can not totally define the circumference on the sloping plane.

 

[marcof]

Thank you very much.

ps: you used those 4 floors to achieve the extrusion of the support head.
Great! !

I think all those plans, axis, etc. are not necessary. Just use the three defaults and work symmetrically, at least for a piece like that.
It seems to me an effort of imagination not just to pull out practically before even starting four floors and an axis.
to the limit a sketch of reference that I though included (just a point, two lines of construction and three quotas) in the sketch of the first feature, no longer serving for the rest of the modeling.

 

[volaff]

dear marcof unfortunately it is not possible to open your file as "the future version".

Perhaps you could realize the profile on the intermediate plane (symmetrical piece) for, in fact, at least I, then I find myself in difficulty to create the "front head" of the piece.

will be the late hour perhaps in fresh mind you think you sure better.

I see the time.
Have a good day!

 

[simone03031986]

marcof compliments, your is a fantastic method and with very few commands.. .

ps: how could you do to exchange files without having to stumble on the annoying message "... future version"

 

[volaff]

in fact simone030303 good question: what to exchange files and open them sometimes is a mess!

 

[volaff]

can you relive optimally even without using the initial four floors before the sketch? ? ?

sometimes between the tilted planes I miss

cmq thanks to all for precious advice!

 

[simone03031986]

Of course you: your hypothetical tilted plane (I think you refer to what you would build the cylinder...) you automatically created the connecting cord between the base and the cylinder. after you extruded it do nothing but select the face and create the cylinder sketch.. .

 

[Mauri:66]

you can achieve it in an optimal way in many ways, there is no way that suits everyone. In my case it is also professional deformation, having to work for details of the automotive sector, to which usually a sequence of planes and axes is set which then will have to coincide with the assembly of the other components.
However axes or plans or points, the important thing is that you create a construction logic that then comes to bring you to the desired result.
The reference plans are usually used because this setting allows you to make a model more parametric in the event of future changes, i.e. sketches created on the plans are released compared to those created on the surfaces. In your case this is not so important but when you work with models that include over 1000 features, which will undergo modifications before deliberation, then you start thinking, and that is where the process and logic with which you created the model becomes important. :wink:

 

[volaff]

thanks for multiple answers.
tomorrow is Saturday and as soon as I can try to build that 3d model, better than I have done so far!

Have a good day!

 

[Mauri:66]

here is the model with features reduced to the minimum ...:smile:
same result with different approach but we can find more... then space to design fantasy. :biggrin:
