Can anyone help me ? I want to know how to make grooves on a cylinderical surface in solidworks models
 
You need to create a plane through the center of your cylinder. Then, simply add a sketch on that plane with a construction line on the axis and do a revolved cut. DimensionalSolutions@Core.com
While I welcome e-mail messages, please post all thread activity in these forums for the benefit of all members.
 
If you have SolidWorks Toolbox (or SolidWorks Office - which includes Toolbox), then you can use the groove tool in the part modeling environment...
