Creating bolt threads and spindles?
Hi there!
To make it brief:
I would like to create a bolt thread on a cylindric part in Alibre design, to be able to screw it into a surface area of another part or create spindles etc..
I'm sure this is as easy as most other things in alibre, but so far I could not figure out how to do it and I haven't found a reference to it in the manual, either, so maybe one of you could point me into the right direction...
Again, here's the objective:
Create a spindle with a Tr24x5 ISO Threading (or whatever else you happen to find in the database) on the outside over about half of the total length
I can create the solid with all neccessary edges and rotate it alright, but I could only find options to create treadings inside holes, which is the opposite of what I want...
Any help is appreciated!
P.S.: I use the german version of Alibre. The english menu items will work for me, too, but if you have the german names handy don't hezitate to mention them as well
