any method to pattern lines perpendicular to a spline curve at certain intervals

Anonymous — Wed, 12 Jun 2019 08:20:32 GMT

Hello,

Is there any way to sketch lines perpendicular to a spline at certain intervals from each other.

Or is there anyway to constrain a line perpendicular to the curve of a spline at a certain point.

Thank you for the advice and suggestions.

Edit: Something similar to this, but its executed on a script and in 3DS max, is there any possibility to do this with Inventor?

I couldn't get a solution within a 2D sketch, but a workaround with surfaces

Here is a way. Inventor 2019.

Hi! Another way is to use Sweep command (a line and the spline curve) to create a surface. The resultant surface consists of infinite number of sections. Each section at any given point on the curve is perpendicular to the curve. Please share your attempt so forum experts can help you further.

Many thanks!
