Hi @subashchandrabose2003,

thanks for posting. I tested the sweep feature on a similar geometry and managed to get this result:

Sweep 360 degrees

Could you share a link to your design with us to test it further?

Thanks a lot in advance!

Best regards,

Hi @subashchandrabose2003,

thanks for sending over the design! I believe the operation actually is happening, but the effects are difficult to spot due to the length of the path. Here is a screenshot of a body created from just one of the five circles - it does twist 360 degrees along the chosen path.

Sweep Twist Angle

Changing the Twist Angle to 30600 (which corresponds to 85 "twists" along the path) allowed me to achieve this effect:

Sweep Twist Angle 30600

For higher values the operation seems to fail due to some geometry conflicts.

Let me know if that helps. Thanks!

Best regards,
