No Twist Along Path option

Recommended Posts

I tried using the twist along path method of spring creating and for some reason I do not get the Twist along Path Option in my parameters. These are the options I have.

 

 

specify twist value

specify direction vector

tangent to adjacent faces

Twist Along Path was still available in solidworks release 2015. In 2016 the interface changed and now all sweeps have the "Profile Twist" drop down. You want to change the drop down to "Specify Twist Value" and then another box appears called Twist Control. Here you can specify the Degrees, Radians or revolutions. Set it to Revolutions and pick your number of turns and its direction.
