Can you please explain the context of the weld you would like to create. I ask because we have a scupt environment in which you can weld to vertices together.
What is it you would like to achieve with this weld?
Sorry for the late reply. The attached picture is a good example. I have created a hydraulic cylinder in the model workspace. You can see where I have fitted ports to the outer body of the cylinder. Where the port is quite big and the cyl is quite small, there is an unrealistic gap, which in the real world would be filled by a weld. In similar drawing packages it is possible to click on the two faces and create a realistic modeled weld inbetween. Is this possible in fusion model workspace? Could it be added as a feature?
The same applies between the bottom of the cylinder and the end cap. There would be a weld filling this gap.
The bottom image is just an example of what I am trying to achieve.
I see what you mean now and how this would be really useful. Unfortunately, right now we do not support that functionality. We will look at it for future implementation.
In the meantime I can suggest positioning the components relative to each other. Combinging them and adding a variable radius.
Thanks for the reply, that would address the cosmetics of a weld however in order to apply the fillet the bodies/components would have to be combined which changes their original shape/properties.
For your enhancement/feature request I'd suggest that;
1) the components/bodies should not have to be combined.
2) for simulation the weld itself could be considered a seperate object.
Also, many weld methods (i.e. 131/135, 136/137) do not produce a concave surface like the fillet, but rather more convex. So in a tool to make weld seams should also have the possibility to adjust not just throat but also shape.
I'd also put forward an idea that weldments should be recognized by the drawing tool, that is it should be possible to draw welded parts separate for manufacturing and also depict welded edges according to drawing standards so they can be properly assembled (welded) by a manufacturer.
OK, getting welds and their symbols into F360 is taking its time. However, by using sketch and sweep a weld can be modelled. It would help greatly if a solid fill could be added to the section hatch patterns so it would be clear what it is.
Onshape seems to be able to provide her users with a usable welding function......
Looking at the blog posting this is exactly what most of us are looking for.
<snip>
we recently decided to create a prototype tool that creates welds in 3D models. This custom welding feature will not only benefit our design process, but also make things easier on the manufacturing end for our subcontractors and clients as well.
