draw the path of a stator wire

Hello friends, is there a way to draw the path of a stator wire so that it is a real wire and not a single solid block or just a shape?

1 Answer

Yes, you can create an actual wire path instead of a solid block by using the sweep feature with a wire profile along a 3D sketch path. Here’s how you can do it:

Create a 3D Sketch Draw the desired wire path that follows the stator winding route.

Draw a Circular Profile On a plane perpendicular to the start of the path, sketch a small circle representing the wire’s diameter.

Use the Sweep Command Select the circle as the profile and the 3D path as the guide. This will generate a realistic wire model.

(Optional) Apply Material & Color Assign a copper or insulation material to make it look like a real wire.

This method works in most CAD programs like SolidWorks, Fusion 360, or CATIA.
