Hello friends Welcome To freead tutorial
0:02
and in this tutorial we will learn a
0:04
subtractive Helix feature in
0:08
freecad you can also visit my website
0:11
Mech nexus.com where I write articles
0:14
and tutorials on freead you can download
0:18
my tutorial source file from the here if
0:21
you like my method of teaching then
0:24
please support me on coffee.com you can
0:27
buy me a cup of coffee your small
0:31
support will help these channels to grow
0:33
and it will motivate me to create more
0:38
freead I will provide my website and my
0:42
Kofi donation page Link in a video
0:44
descriptions so let's come back to our
0:49
tutorial if you see this image so
0:53
subtractive helic tool modify a solid by
0:55
swipping a selected sketch or 2D object
0:59
along alongs the Helix Fox cutting away
1:05
so if I create a new file then here is a
1:09
tool known as additive Helix and this
1:11
one is known as a subtractive Helix when
1:14
we use the tool additive Helix then it
1:17
adds the material and subtract to Helix
1:21
removes the material additive Helix is
1:23
used to create a spring type of a
1:26
material uh spring type of a body which
1:29
having the peit and height and similarly
1:33
subtract to hel both are the similar
1:36
tool the only difference is that one is
1:38
used for adding of material and other is
1:41
subtraction so let's uh do a simple
1:44
exercise to understand the subtract to
1:46
Helix feature in freead so first I will
1:51
body and if we go to the image then we
1:54
can easily see here this is
1:57
the profile B is a cutting along the
2:01
provided data here Peach and height to
2:13
let's come to our body and I will On the
2:16
Origin plane and I will select a top
2:19
plane and create a sketch and here I
2:26
circle and I will give it a diameter
2:30
of 100 mm and I close
2:34
it I will off the origin plane select my
2:37
sketch and click on the pad and pad I
2:48
1550 now we will create a profile and
2:52
use this subtract to Helix feature so
2:54
for this we again on the origin plane
2:57
and we will select this exit plane and
3:01
sketch then we off the plane and we will
3:04
change model transparency to the
3:07
wireframe and now I will uh create a
3:13
circle and I will project this uh Outer
3:17
Edge and uh I will add the vertical
3:22
relation and I select these two points
3:25
and add the vertical Dimensions let's
3:30
mm and I will give this
3:39
Dimensions now I will switch to the flat
3:44
lines and I will come out of the sketch
3:48
now we have this circle now we will
3:51
remove the material in the form of
3:54
Helix so I will select my sketch and
3:57
click on this subtract to Helix
4:14
processing so you can see that uh here
4:17
we have the pitch of 15 mm height is
4:22
46.7 so we will keep as it is and click
4:28
Okay so it is a processing so it is
4:31
processed now we will press the space
4:34
bar and hide this pad now you can see
4:37
that uh a material is removed along the
4:41
Helix like this and now let's we change
4:45
the value CL click on the edit Helix and
4:49
here on height Let's uh we make a height
4:56
Pitch let's change the pitch as well
5:01
let's make a peach of 20 mm uh sorry
5:05
let's make peach of a 12 mm and click on
5:14
processing so it got processed we will
5:17
press the space bar and hide this pad so
5:20
you can see that uh how the material
5:23
removed and we can modify our Helix
5:26
again if we want so this is how you can
5:30
use the sep to Helix features and this
5:33
feature is used to create a thread
5:37
profile if you are creating external
5:42
shaft so this feature is very useful so
5:46
this is all about this tutorial how to
5:49
use the subtractive Helix in freead
5:52
thank you for watching and thank you for
