The Pattern feature in the Solidworks program is very easy to apply

· Posted in , , ,

To build a sketch driven pattern: Open a sketch on the face of a part. Click Point or Tools > Sketch Entity > Point , and add multiple sketch points to represent the pattern you want to create, based on the seed feature. Click Sketch Driven Pattern (Features toolbar) or Insert > Pattern/Mirror > Sketch Driven Pattern. Patterns make items by repeating selected objects in an array based on the features we want. Many supporting features exist in the Solidworks program. We can make a variety of patterns ranging from linear patterns, circular patterns, curve patterns, fill patterns or using point sketches or coordinate tables to create patterns. To reproduce features in Solidworks select the Visual Properties option in the Property Manager. For Circular Pattern, select the feature and axis as the center of rotation, then specify: The number of items and the angular distance or number of items and the total angle to create the pattern. For Curve Driven Pattern, select a feature and segment or sketch where for the feature's pattern. Then we can determine the type of curve, the curve method, and the alignment method. For patterns, choose where to change the seed feature by sketching points on the face model. For Table Pattern, add or take the previous item with XY coordinates to fill in the feature. For Fill Patern, fill in the area specified with the pattern feature. We can also make copies of patterns and copies of patterns of control and adjustment systems.
