I am trying to model a bonding pattern on an anvil roll. The pattern does not just repeat where a circular pattern creates the part. The pattern in in a helical pattern. I have modeled the part using Solid edge and the link is a screen shot of the part. The Part in edge is cumbersome to work...
I want to stretch the hole sketch.
Elements that are completely inside the fence are moved. Elements that overlap the fence are stretched.
So I would need the fence to overlap everything.
Thanks

How do you stretch a sketch?
I do not want to scale the whole sketch I just want it stretched in the x direction by 1.5%.
The only way that I can find to do this is to compute the angle and then project the sketch onto another plane, after that pull the sketch off of the tilted plane and put...
In masterCam we could take a flattened pattern and rap it around at a set R, It would then let us write the tool code to mill out the part off of the flat. We now have NX to do our tool code. Is there a way to have it rap the flattened patteren around a cylinder.
This is like taking a rubber...
We have a part file for a die roll; we are looking for a way to have the roll un-rolled. for a math explanation, if you were to plot the space our roll occupies in cylindrical coordinates (r, theta, h), rather than using a conversion we would want the direct output, r=x, theta=y, h=z. this...
In order to build a proper Roll I needed to use Rolled Sketches, with swept surfaces, Stitched together. This built the roll for me but is there a way to then take the roll and shave off the outer layer, flatten it, and stretch it to build a flat pattern. Or have the part saved as a Para solid...
Donyoung Said,
"No CAD will do that except with some additional modules
taht have been bought at $$$$ ..."
What or where would I look if I wanted to find one of these modules. It might be something that would be worth the price.
Thanks
Yep, I am looking to have the profile of the knife to be the same through out. If I use the normal cut the blade base will be thinner than the top. The closest that I have gotten is using the swept protrusion. So modeling the part is being a pain, yet having to find a way to have a linked flat...
Thank You Onefjef
But this works for simple patterns and this is what I have been doing.
I need to have a knife like edge on the end of the die.
so I have walls that need to come up with uniform thickness that then have a triangular top to give me the cutting profile. so this makes a 3d part...
Hello,
I am trying to figure out a way to do this one way or the other.
I have a roller die that has some complex geometry on it, I am trying to find a way to model the die and produce a flat pattern of the die as well.
I currently need to build a full model of the die as if I unrolled it off...
