Helical Wave Shape Spring & Spherical Helix by Datum

Curve.
Helical Wave Shape Spring

Step A:

1. Create a new part.

2. Create a datum curve >> curve from equation
3. Select Cylindrical Coordinates Variable used- r, theta & z
4. Click on equation >> add equation in note pad window r=5 theta=t*3600 z=(sin(3.5*theta-
90))+24*t
5. Verify the equation.

Spherical Helix by Datum Curve

Step B

1. Create a new part.

2. Create a datum curve >> curve from equation
3. Select Spherical Coordinates Variable used- rho, theta & phi
4. Click on equation >> add equation in note pad window rho=4 theta=t*180 phi=t*360*20
5. Verify the equation
