3D knurling and drawing

Hi all 

 

I want to make a knurling appear on a part in the 3D and on my drawing. (On Solidworks)

 

Is there a quick method for this? 

 

Thank you 

 

See you soon and have a good day!

Hello

 

it can be done with a surface finish from the appearances tab of the Property Manager as shown here:

Or by applying an apprence: Miscellaneous/Pattern/Embossing

as @ Lucas says

in surface condition via an appearance it is much simpler and less heavy

Now if you really want to create your knurling look at this tutorial

Hello

For my part, I created a library function with an appearance in 3D and I import the dimensions of the function into the drawing.

 

Have a nice day

Hello

I made a tutorial for a representation of knurling but it's on Creo elements.

But maybe you can find equivalent functions on SW:

Since it has no bearing on the manufacture, and it just serves as an appearance,

 

An embossing appearance would be more than enough I think.

Hello

 

For the drawing, there is a standardized representation of the knurling that you can do with a hatched area for example.
