Variable Pitch Helix by Equation Curve

[Bela_Thalmann]

Hello,
a short question, is it possible to  create a helix/spline/Coil like this?

In Inventor i can use the Equation Curve tool, but how i can created in Fusion 360?

I’ve seen your request on this forum. I partially resolve the problem with a Python script that is still in progress. I think that you have read my articles about empirical construction of helixes (thanks for the kudos). My work has gone a little forward trying to create a helix with variable pitch.

You can see the effects of the script in my Fusion gallery.

Disuniform Helix, hourglass, helix chip, Hyperbolic Helix, Helix blaze, Helix snail are all created with the script.

 

Unfortunately the approach to the problem is always empirical so if you’re looking for something really precise in terms of measures, the script is not the solution.

 

Thanks
