Create a 2D Equation Curve

In the first section, you create an equation curve in a 2D sketch as part of a profile. You then use the profile to create a revolve feature.

1. Create a new part based on the Standard (mm) template.
2. Create a new 2D sketch on the YZ origin plane.
3. Start the Equation Curve command.
4. Enter the following values:
   • x(t): t
   • y(t): t^2
   • tmin: 0
   • tmax: 2
   
5. Draw a horizontal and a vertical line to close the profile.
   
6. Dimension the horizontal line. Accept the default value of 2 mm.
   
7. Finish the Sketch.
8. Start the Revolve command. The profile is selected automatically. Use the longer line as the axis of revolution.
