repetition on spiral propeller

[matteo jeff]

good morning, to all, I have to realize a steel scale, it is composed of parts of sheet metal (scalini) that must be repeated along a curve (heavy propeller), I can not find a function of circular repetition as first direction and linear as second direction. Can anyone help me? Thank you very much

If I understand what you mean the answer is: you can't do as you want.
You have to put independent pieces.

I'll explain better.... I have to make a spiral staircase,, it seems impossible not there is a way to repeat the steps.... if I had 20 steps, I have to repeat for 20 times the couplings of every single step? Thank you so much for your answer

Of course you can, we'd miss it.
you have to use repeat guided by the curve:..and here the native file (I hope you have swx 2010 to open it):View attachment RIPETIZIONE SCALINI.rargreetings

p.s. maybe one last to help and guide online...

That kind of repetition isn't there, I've already asked several times, but... There is no! you can make a curve and use the repetition along the curve as a support for the repetition of the steps, but it is still a filling.

How not... Here is an example.. .
I also wanted to attach an e-drawing file..(quotabile :biggrin m weighs too much. .

ps: nice there. Marco, if it didn't crash avant browser we would post
together. . .

anyway I avoid that repetition prefer to draw ups and divisions in the plant.
especially for stairs of several floors, and perhaps with landings, is more
"malleable" (both well understood... in the asses..).
for example.. .

I don't want to be too hot, but it's not the same. There are cases where getting there with the curve is not easy.
to make a parallel example proe manages just the two repetitions (circular and linear) together as they were two normal directions.
this function is very useful and in case of assemblies, it works directly without making a function repeat on which to lean.
repetitions should be improved, but the impact on the audience of these improvements is low, do you want to put with the touch or version for mac?

quoting in full.
This case is a simple case. I also had insurmountable problems on patterns with top-down modeling

You're perfectly right. but it was the possible answer for the solution of this and other simple similar cases.

Moreover autocad had repeats 3d :biggrin:

Surely having a circular-linear function would be convenient in case they serve patterns along a propeller, but I do not see what may be the "insurmountable" cases of patterns made by leaning against the repetition of the function, both along a propeller and along different geometries.
I often use it and will be habit (i.e. to make of necessity virtue. ..
but the curve-point-repetition sequence of component function-repetition allowed me to easily solve situations that at first glance could seem intricate, controlling well orientation and position of the components.

thanks to all of the info, but the repeat function guided by curve I found it, too, in the environment side by side. I would need a function of that guy in the environment together... .
thanks to all

together use "repetition of the function-driven component" and support you to the internal repetition of the part. the function in the part part (extusion or cut it is) you can create it in such shape that you smartly need to place with the right alignment the first component of the axieme to be repeated.
