Distribution of the blades on the shaft

3D Design Assembly

Hi all
I have a question about arranging all the blades in a spiral way, so that all the blades cover 360° along the shaft.

See P.J
So how can I do it?

Kind regards

Hello

Which version of SOLIDWORKS are you using? Because there are several possible answers.

Hello again,

If you are using an assembly, simply use the "Linear Dir" function on your blade and check the "Rotate Instances" option.

Is that what you want? (See attached image).

Kind regards

Hello

Thank you very much, but the axis of rotation is not defined for me; otherwise the axis it is set for direction cannot  be set for rotation!

Kind regards

If this is not the temporary axis of the tree, you must be well aware of which one the rotation is going to, right? In this case, simply create an axis (with the Axis function) or create a 2D or 3D sketch with a construction line in order to point this entity to rotate the instances.

Kind regards

Inaccurate

Use these settings and it works

Super! All you have to do is designate the answer that helped you in order to "Close" your question in the forum.

Good night

Thank you!

But the goal of designating the right answer is essentially to help the community or a user who might have the same problem and therefore to know what to do.

I therefore invite you to re-designate the answer that solved your problem (among those given to you) because the one you designated is probably not the one that allowed you to answer your question.

Good night
