Surfaces in SolidWorks

3D Design Surface Modeling
1

Hi all

Are some of you familiar with the SolidWorks Surface Module?

How to answer the first question on page 15 of the attachment?

Could you give me an example with the two functions:

Swept surface = swept surface

http://help.solidworks.com/2014/french/SolidWorks/sldworks/t_Swept_Surfaces.htm

Filled surface = filled surface

http://help.solidworks.com/2014/french/SolidWorks/sldworks/c_Filled_Surface.htm

 

Side question, some have already passed the SolidWorks surface certification? What are the pitfalls or points to be deepened?

Thank you in advance.

Hi PL

 

You know there are no P15 questions? Just a problem statement. Or did I miss it completely?

 

Otherwise, a part with both surface functions attached. It's a relatively simple piece you'll see:D

And this is solidworks 2011. You should be able to open it so I think

Yes, the statement of the problem starts on page 15, it was to avoid reading the previous 14 pages which are only blah!

I was of course talking about question 1.

Not easy easy your piece.

Well at the same time, that's the pleasure of the surface: you manage to do stylish things at the end (and after having taken your head well)

 

Anyway, personally I would make a sketch from the outer edge of the room (with convert the entities) EDIT: to be done on the XZ plan

I would make my edge inclined by 3°.

 

Then I would make a swept surface with the option to follow the tracker and the guide curve. Where the guide curve is the upper edge of the part and the trajectory is the sketch you just made

 

The thing is that I'm afraid that the small inclined surface will follow the trajectory (logical note) and that you won't end up with "ground" plane

And a little bonus, if my explanations are not clear, as an example your part with the function made.

 

Be careful though, I didn't rename it

@ .PL you often ask to close open questions it seems to me

So close the questions you asked and put a resolved resolution

For the record

@PL, no feedback if it meets your needs?

Thank you for your answer, but I didn't have time to test!

Hello

I followed the exercise and here is the result, in it you will be able to find swept and filled surfaces.

The measurements taken on the model correspond to the responses.

Edit: sorry for the duplicate

Hi @dargaud.anthony, were you able to ask all the questions or only the first one? Because the following ones interest me too, but I thought I'd ask other questions later!

Hello

I did the whole exercise, it's not very complicated when you follow the logic of surfaces (which is different from the volume logic)

@.PL

Does the surface modeling correspond to the exercise?

If so, could you close the question by indicating the best answer please.

Thank you.

Hello

I haven't had time to look yet, sorry!
