WORKBENCH 17.2 TUTORIALS

3D CURVE
Design modeler
Goals:
 Utilize a 3D coordinate point file to generate a 3D curve.
 Use Sweep to create a new part from the curve.
 Open workbench software from your toolbar.
 ToolBox > Component System > Geometry (double click to add geometry to
the Project)
 Right click in geometry > New DesignModeler Geometry
 Once DesignModeler is open change the units to millimeters.
 Concept > 3D curve
o Details view > Details of curve 1 > Coordinates File > click in “…” to
browse the file.
 In the browser look for the file “sine_points.txt” and open it.

 Click in generate to generate the line.

 Tools > Named Selection
o In the tree outline select “line body” (under “1 part, 1 body”)
o Click in apply in details window for geometry

 Click in generate after you apply the named selection to the line
 Select the named selection that you created
o Create (from the toolbar) > revolve

 Once we had revolve in details of revolve

o Geometry > apply
o Axis > y-Axis
To select the y-axis, it could be possible we should select in de tree outline a
YZ plane to get a better view.
 Then click in generate.
