Revolve a T-Spline body

Learn how to use the Revolve tool to revolve a profile around an axis to create a circular T-Spline body in Fusion.

1. In the Design workspace, Form contextual environment, select Create > Revolve . The Revolve dialog displays.
2. In the canvas, select the Profile to revolve.
3. Select a linear or circular object to use as the Axis to revolve around.
4. In the dialog, select a Type and adjust associated settings.
   • Full: Revolves the profile 360 degrees around the axis.
   • Angle: Revolves the profile around the axis to an angle value that you specify.
     • Select a Direction setting and adjust associated settings.
       • One Side: Creates a revolve in one direction.
       • Two Sides: Creates a revolve in both directions. Each direction can have a different angle.
       • Symmetric: Creates a symmetrical revolution in both directions.
     • To specify the Angle value, drag the manipulator handle or type an exact value.
5. Specify the face Spacing:
   • Uniform: Spaces faces evenly around the profile.
   • Curvature: Spaces faces based on the curvature of the profile.
6. Optionally, check Weld to merge all coincident vertices.
7. Select a Symmetry setting and adjust associated settings:
   • None
   • Circular: Select to embed symmetry in the body.
     • Symmetric Faces: Specifies the number of symmetric faces around the axis of the revolve.
8. Click OK.
