Rotating parts within part files
Rotating parts within part files
(OP)
I have used the mirror body feature to generate the lobes on a camshaft, i wondered if there is a way i can rotate each section of the mirrored parts to have the cam lobes for each cylinder 90degrees apart, help would be appreciated,
thanks
thanks

First I would instance the lobes to where they would be in the proper location but not at the proper rotation.
Then I would use syncronous modeling -> move face to rotate the lobes to their proper orientation. When you do the "move face" you must select all of the faces of the lobe (usually selecting with a rectangle) and then use the pull-down in the menu to find the best way to rotate them.
