HI!

 

I have the body defined with the mesh. Now I want to give the thicknes of 0,2 mm to this mesh and obtain the shell. I tryed to do that but without the success.

 

How to do this?

 

I included the file with the mesh.

 

Thank you for the help. Smiley Happy

Kind regards,

Currently there is no way to do this with Fusion 360 alone.

 

The Mesh > Brep converter cannot convert it because of too many triangles.

 

Do you have a way to make this a quad based obj?

At the moment I don't know. I will see if I can make quad based object. The ship's form is made in DelftShip software.

(What is the  meaning of "Brep"?)

 

Thank you for the advice.

B-rep meaning:

As far as converting your mesh into quads try Momento. I think for what your doing it will work fine.

Momento wont work for what your trying to do, I just tried. You can convert it and get it into Fusion but you can't thicken the resulting body. I will try another trick when I get home.

Thank you Phil for your kindness and efforts to help me.

I bypassed the problem in the following way: I exported from DelftShip the hull's form in the DXF data file. Then imported these data into AutoCAD. The sections are defined with 3D polylines with a lot of control points. Then I made (by hand) the same sections using spline tool. It is possible to obtain the same line form with 10 spline control points like a line form defined with 500 3D polylines control points. The only problem is the fact that I need to use some time to do the job. When finished I will show the result here.
