A revolved cut in SolidWorks is a feature used to remove material from a solid model by revolving a sketched profile around an axis. This allows you to create various features like slots, grooves, channels, and other symmetrical cuts.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
Create a Sketch Profile:
-Start by creating a new part or opening an existing one.
-Select a planar face on your model and click "Sketch" to initiate a sketch.
-Draw the desired shape of the cut using sketch tools like lines, arcs, rectangles, etc.
-Ensure the profile is a closed loop for a clean cut.
Define Axis of Revolution:
-This is the imaginary line around which the sketch profile will rotate to create the cut.
-SolidWorks offers multiple options for the axis:
-Existing edges or centerlines on your model.
-Sketch entities like lines created specifically for this purpose.
Apply the Revolved Cut:
-With the sketch profile active, navigate to the "Features" tab and select "Revolved Cut".
-In the PropertyManager that appears, select the previously defined axis of revolution.
-You can optionally specify the angle of revolution (defaults to 360 degrees for a complete cut).
-Click "OK" to create the revolved cut on your model.
