[olivierpa]

Dear All


I would like to simulate a welding between two parts , with flate surfaces it's OK but when I what to do it on a circulate surface , everytime I have the message "trajectory is not valid " with sweep tool


I wanted to creat the pink function between green and grey parts





Do you have any idea to solve my problem ?


Many thanks for your help

I could very easily do welding on circular parts also. The procedure remains the same for welding on circular bodies as that for falt bodies. Here is a snapshot of what I have done. If this is not what you are looking for, please indicate where exactly welding is to be done in your model.

1. in assembly> applications> welding. (i hope till here you have reached and before doing this step you have assembled the components.


2. click INSERT>WELD ( you will get a WELD DIFINITION window).


inFEATURE i selected WELD


in COMBINATION i selected SINGLE.


in ENVIORNMENT i took the first type (FILLET) and kept LEG 1 as 6 and selected EQUAL LENGTH.


3. click OK
