I can't put a pattern on a conical surface on Soliworks

Hello

I plan to make a slightly conical vase with a diamond or a hollow hexagon on the conical surface. I tried the winding function, unfortunately it does not allow you to have a pattern parallel to the bottom of the vase, it is curved and distorted. I tested with the 3D texture function but I can't make the pattern as I want. 

I'm on Solidworks  2019

Attached is the file to which I wish to apply the pattern.

Thank you in advance for all the people who issue a response

Hello, it is not possible with your pattern to have the same number of diamonds at the top and bottom without there being a deformation.

At the top they will be smaller than at the bottom for example or they would overlap, that in any case I think.

Do you have an existing visual of your wish?

 

Kind regards

Post images, we don't all have the same versions of SW

if not according to what I understand

via a projected sketch it should do it

Here are 2 tests (on the same part)

1 with the winding function and the other with a material removal, which allows cutting  on the floor.

In both cases I do a circular repetition afterwards.

You will notice that we are forced to have different angles and not // to keep the "walls" of constant thickness. You have to find the right setting.

Let's see if it can help you / change your strategy.

 

EDIT: I skipped the attachment^^

Hold up gt22 I made you a visu:

I am not convinced by the inclined plane, and the repetition in the sketch without having calculated the number needed for the upper and lower part.

If the edit is identical, there can't be the same number at the top as at the bottom.

On the other hand, if we make the same number as in my example, the size of the bottom edit is longer than the top one or if it's the same length the spaces will be bigger at the bottom.

It's a choice to make.

For GT22 here is my example:

with colors for each function. red with embossing and green for classic extrusion. In the 2 CVAS my east is on the central vertical plane.

I apologize for not being able to answer earlier. Indeed, the fact that it is conical forces me to change the number of patterns per round, I would prefer to have them all the same size isn't there a simpler solution to achieve this because if you have a small pattern it quickly becomes very long.

I had seen this vase: https://www.myminifactory.com/fr/object/3d-print-pineapple-pen-holder-3955

In fact the subject has already been dealt with here, look at this link:

Thank you @FUZ3D indeed it corresponds, I hadn't thought of looking for it from this angle. But I don't understand the answer, how can I get the result on the photo by doing a sweep with a triangle sketch??

In any case, thank you to all of you who answered me ;-)

Hello @ p valaye

read the whole post and you'll understand

the sweep is basically on the same plane

after with the torsion function

We recover the right angle

After that, it's just rehearsals

and symmetry 

But the fact is, if you want a design 

who holds the road, your motives will not be the same 

by the shape of your basic piece

It's the same principle as engraving on crystal decanters

If your decanter is cylindrical, your pattern will be identical

if your carafe has an ovoid shape

the modifications of the larger section will be larger

since there is always the same number of patterns

Hello

Not having really understood how to use this technique to meet my request, I did what was recommended earlier : a change of scale between the lower and upper part. Unfortunately my pc is not powerful enough to do the circular repetition (I ran it for more than 12 hours without result at the end). Can someone do the repetition with 64 repetitions of the winding and the leave with constant 360° spacing. Attached is my file.

Thank you in advance for the answers.

Post images of whatever you want

or parasolid file

we don't all have the same version of SW

for the repetition problem

see face repetition it's less greedy ;-)

Here is what I would like if possible.

Hi @ p.valaye

see attached images and SW 2017 file

having created the side via a spline to make my revolution

I allowed myself to have a little fun

with a rebuild  time of less than 1.5 seconds

To optimize for your needs

it's for the principle

PS: I don't understand why it has become so long to download an attachment

On the messages, another problem to be solved urgently

Thank you very much!

I finally understand

It was however well explained on the link of the other communication thread

but not sure you can do the same with your PC

Good evening my dear @gt22

So now I'm on the c....

You annoy to be so fortuitous  ;-)   :-)
What I found the most clever is to use the bending rotation function to make the first rib. For that alone,   you're the one who wins the best post of the week and even of the current month ;-)

WELL DONE! Men!

Kind regards
