A single face selection creates a plane parallel and coincident with the selected surface. On its own this is rarely better that creating a sketch on a plane like normal. It can also be offset from the selected plane. Again, limited uses but sometimes comes in handy. Notice that when you ...
Choose "Extruded Cut", "Up to Surface" for Direction 1, then select the bottom face as in the image. Step 11: Boss-Extrude6 Draw a new sketch on the Right plane. Choose "Extruded Boss/Base", add a 77 mm offset (inwards), then make its depth 8 mm (inwards). Ensure that the off...
I want create rib on the middle portion of the L-beam for providing god support and strength. For creating an open or closed sketch, need a Reference plane.Seehow to use Reference Plane in Solidworkshere. Create plane and set it to middle of the L-beam (set plane offset distance as 50...
to let things slot in and slide along), and my idea was to make a sketch plane offset from the face of the shape inside the body. Then, just draw a body along the profile of the curve, and extrude cut. I can't seem to get a sketch to ...
Axis of Revolution:This is reference axis which helps to revolve the sketch entity around it. Direction 1 or 2:Here you can set the revolve type, reverse the direction and direction angle. The revolve types available are blind, up to surface, up to vertex, offset from surface and midplane...
in piping design. In such cases,piping designmay land on Northeast, Southeast, Northwest, or Southwest axes. In order to check the dimension of pipe length with offset, common Pythagoras’s theorem and Trigonometric rule can be used. A sample calculation is shown below as a reference- ...
