I'm trying to create a helical gear using ANSYS Design Modeler API Script to make parametric gears studies. but i don't know how to perform a extrude with twisted helix of the gear. I think that maybe using extrude sweep along the 3D path but i don't know how to do that thing.

i found some function in agConstants.js, agEventHandler.js that maybe has the solution but i don't know how to use them

ag.c.FPointManual() and ag.gui.CreateCurve()

Any ideas?

this is my script file:

ag.m.ClearAllErrors();
ag.gui.setUnits(ag.c.UnitMillimeter, ag.c.UnitDegree, ag.c.No);

function planeSketchesOnly(p) {
    p.Plane = agb.GetActivePlane();
    p.Origin = p.Plane.GetOrigin();
    p.XAxis = p.Plane.GetXAxis();
    p.YAxis = p.Plane.GetYAxis();

    p.Sk1 = p.Plane.NewSketch();
    p.Sk1.Name = "Gear";

    with (p.Sk1) {
        p.Sp1 = SplineBegin();
        with (p.Sp1) {
            SplineFlexibility = agc.Yes;

Hi efirvida,

Could you please tell the manual process you are doing and which profile you are selection to create this gear?

Are you able to create gear manually?
If yes then please post pictures of process how you are making a Helical gear and what profile and path you are selection manually!

Cheers
KAPI

Hi!! first of all thanks for help me.

yes I'm able to create the gear manually, well not all the gear one tooth is enough for me.

1- create a profile of the tooth using the previous posted script, this create a sketch named "Gear"


if i want to create a spur gear a simply extrude command will be sufficient for this profile, but for helical gear its needed extrude and twist at the same time, but design modeler doesn't have this capability. then...

2- to extrude and twist the profile at the same time, maybe i can use sweep tool
create the path for the sweep using Design Modeler>Concept>3D Curve. Details view, assign "From Coordinates File" on the Definition option and use file with the coords of the path for example (not real coords file, the real ones are not calculated yet)

coords.txt

        1 1 0.0  17.5 0.0
        1 2 2.0  15.5 10.0
        1 3 4.0  13.5 15.0
        1 4 6.0  11.5 20.0
        1 5 8.0  9.5 25.0
        1 6 10.0 7.5 30.0

3- finally use sweep to extrude the sketch "Gear" along the 3D Curve.


this is the manual procedure, but for my script i don't want to use an external coordinate file to create the 3D Curve, i want to have all on a single script file

[Kapi]

Hi efirvida,

You can create curve from the following function using coordinate file

var Cr1 = ag.gui.CreateCurve();
Cr1.Name = "FileName";
Cr1.CoordinateFile = "FilePath";
agb.Regen();

I am trying to figure out how to create curve directly from the script itself so that you dont need to call any coordinate file. Will let you know as soon as I figure out.

For Twisted sweep with Pitch you can use below code.

var sweep1 = agb.Sweep(agc.Add, ps1.Sk1, ps1.Sk1, agc.AlignTangent, 1.0, 2.0, agc.No, 0.0, 0.0);
agb.Regen();

You can add below code if you want to add values.

sweep1.Name = "GearSweep";
sweep1.Scale = 0.1;
sweep1.Turns = 1.0;
sweep1.Walled = agc.No;
sweep1.Thin1 = 0.0;
sweep1.Thin2 = 1.0;
agb.Regen();

Hope it helps

hi thanks again,
but that didn't work, i change your code

var sweep1 = agb.Sweep(agc.Add, ps1.Sk1, ps1.Sk1, agc.AlignTangent, 1.0, 2.0, agc.No, 0.0, 0.0);

for:

var sweep1 = agb.Sweep(agc.Add, p.Sk1, Cr1, agc.AlignTangent, 1.0, 2.0, agc.No, 0.0, 0.0);

but the sweep feature doesn't recognize the path Cr1.
Do any progress with the non coordinate file curve?

[Kapi]

Hi efirvida,

In one of the JS files I found this:

to change the path of the sweep. The path should be a sketch,
plane outline, or named selection and not the same as the profile

You are creating a 3D curve and referencing it in the path thats why its not working.
So I guess you need to do Named Selection of Curve and then specify the Named Selection in place of "Cr1" in Sweep Function

ps: I havent figured out how to create curve within JS

Hope it helps

how would I do that?
thanks!

[Kapi]

Hi efirvida,

how would I do that?

I haven't used it yet so guess we both need to look into function to create NamedSelection automatically.

Search JS files for the answer and I shall do the same!

Hi,

could you find anything for scripting a NamedSelection?

Best regards

Max

[Kapi]

Hi User,

You can select body/face/edge and then use this function for named selection

ag.gui.CreateSelectionSet();
