How to cut/remove part from another

Using Inventor 2025

I have an issue that I have searched the forums for without success.. I have an assembly (roller) that i need to cut multiple complex designs into around its circumference. I have a part file of the item and its ideal dimensions, but i cannot figure out how to use that part to "cut" it in multiple places around the outside of the roller. any help is greatly appreciated.
