am not having much luck defining a helical curve using an equation. the cam profile follows this equation
but i cannot figure out how to generate the helix in SW. have tried variable pitch helix and equation driven curve but no luck.
Anyone have an example part to share so i can see how its done?
here is a table of the height vs angle.
t, deg | y, in |
0 | 0 |
15 | -3.6773 |
30 | -6.8744 |
45 | -9.6454 |
60 | -12.0333 |
75 | -14.0801 |
90 | -15.8191 |
105 | -17.2801 |
120 | -18.4889 |
135 | -19.4684 |
150 | -20.2386 |
165 | -20.8175 |
180 | -21.2207 |
Thanks!
