I am a complete novice at autocad. I am trying to draw a sensor that consists of 5 thin sheets placed on top of each other. The order of sheets goes, clear plastic, copper, paper, copper and then clear plastic. The thickess sheet is the copper which is only 0.1mm thick. I have drawn each sheet as a cyclinder.

 

I am having troublr placing the cyclinders on top of each other as they are so thin, can anyone help?

 

Also does anyone have a paper texture?

You're doing this in 3D right?

 

I'm guessing all the cylinders are the same size right? Draw one then copy it vertically. Since your "wafer" is so thin I think an "exploded" view is called for here don't you?

No the clinders are have different diameters and one has two tabs on the side. So are different

Example of 5 wafers placed one above the other.

Make the bottom wafer, change your UCS orientation and using either the Copy command or 3DArray command place four more wafers above it.

 

I'd suggest assigning materials to layers rather than objects.

Five wafers of varying diameters and one with two tabs. Thickness = 0.1mm
