Adding relief and pressure to surfaces

richard_kovanovrichard_kovanov Member Posts: 9

One step of designing prothesis, after making a mould, is to define some pressure (e.g. muscle) and relief (bone) points, and then pressure the mold on the inner or outer side to add the relief or pressure.

Any suggestions on how I can implement this feature using onshape?

Here's my project (screenshot below): https://cad.onshape.com/documents/e6295f17aa22558c8adfbe5c/w/cdbaae27e7ffffd196321f49/e/b83471ea3a35be6a5e806ef1?renderMode=0&uiState=68d179276d67a2659a597aea

I made a couple of attempts using sweeps and a ruled surface. I think ruled surface+revolve best describes what I'm trying to do, but I'm not sure how to create the line following specific points on the surface.

Am I on the right track? I'm a noob, but I'm interested on how experts would do this :)

Thanks
