stent

[jochen]

Hi anyone !


I need help. I'm a newbie to Wildfire 2.0 and I have to modela stent. In the attached File I've tried to model a stent. My question is, how can I pattern indicated in the file in the axis direction and how can I cut away the stent cells.


thanks a lot for your help

5 per revolution.. but then when it moves up... how far up ?

i think i can get this to work ..

thats with just random pattern values.

hmm i think the best way would be to make the pattern on a
plane... then wrap the entire thing... or even use a
toridialend? or is it spinal..

anyway this is another way of doing it .. using axial and directional patterns

without the dims cant help you with pattern, but regarding the cut, simply use the edit trim on the original wrap then pattern the cut! done!

Before sending large Pro/E files, suppressing all features will greatly reduce file size. I justsuppressed all featureson a 13.3mb file andfile size was reduced to 2.4mb.

please check ur dimensions .. they were all weak. so they may have moved a little
