Feature driven using curve driven pattern
Feature driven using curve driven pattern
(OP)
Hello guys !
Does anyone know if we can use a curve driven pattern as a feature for Feature Driven Pattern of components. I tried having a curve driven pattern for holes and then inserted a bolt in the first hole and am trying to pattern it using feature driven pattern, but it doesnt work.
Any input will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
regards

RE: Feature driven using curve driven pattern
I made a square plate with radius on the 4 corners, fairly big radius. Then I inserted an offset sketch on the face. Then I made one hole (actually I sketched a circle and then cut, wonder if a hole would work) which had its centre on the offset curve. Then I made a pattern of that cut (hole) on the curve using curve drivven pattern to have 12 holes along the curve.
Now in the assembly I inserted a bolt in this first hole. Tried to have a feature driven pattern of bolts using my curve driven pattern of holes as the feature to be used.
This doesnt work and says CANNOT PATTERN: COULD NOT LOCATE PATTERN LOCATION.
Hope this makes it clearer.
Thanks
