1) Free form surfaces; 2) Explode view

ehsan_pazooki

Hello guys, I have 2 questions:

1) Is there any way to make free form surfaces in Onshape? For example in such a way that we do that in Solidworks?

2) I have an assembly and it consists of different parts with different shapes. How can I view the exploded form of that?

Could some one please help me?

Best Regards

Hi @ehsan_pazooki,

Please see https://cad.onshape.com/help/Content/exploded_views.htm?Highlight=exploded for your exploded view question. I'm afraid someone more versed in CAD than I will have to answer your first question.

Best,

Mike

@ehsan_pazooki yes freeform surfaces are possible using curves and splines to create boundaries and rails for lofts, swept, and fill surfaces. However, to better answer your question can you provide a few images that depict the type of geometry you hope to create? - Best, Vince aka-SkillCoach

Take a look at the PDF in the below document.
It covers how to use this Sculpt Face FeatureScript tool
