I'm somewhat of a newbie when it comes to Catia V5, but I do know a decent amount. I'm trying to draw a shock spring seat and the actual seat is a helical surface. I cannot figure out how to get the cylinder portion to meet the helical surface...see attached pics

Any help or tutorial would be greatly appreciate, I'm using R19.

Hi BigPrizz,

Just an idea is, you first need to create closed/filled cylinder, then perform cut using helical spring and then add fillets and finally shell command to get thickness.

I hope this will help.
