Hello,
I was wondering if you had any ideas on how to create a flipping box.
I've tried this method but I'm not convinced by the result:
- I started by creating the volume of the product, then duplicated it along a helix.
- Then I combined all the bodies
- I created another volume and used the cavity function to subtract all the bodies from this volume.
Problem:
- Depending on the length of the helix and the number of bodies duplicated, a Solidworks error appears: “geometrical problem”. As a result, the body cannot be combined.
- Combined bodies create a large number of unnecessary surfaces so the box will need a "smoothing" feature.
Do you have any ideas on how to create this type of box correctly with Solidworks ?
Regards
Thomas
