# Revolve and Sweep

Rotational and uniform-cross-section geometries are ubiquitous in industrial design and daily life. The Revolve and Sweep features enable efficient modeling of such forms.

(Video Insertion: Demonstration of lightbulb modeling using these commands)

  1. Lightbulb Base
  • Created via "Revolve Boss/Base" command:

  • Requires closed sketch profile

  • Profile must not self-intersect with revolution axis

  1. Filament Structure
  • Generated with "Sweep Boss/Base" due to consistent cross-section:

  • Path sketch must intersect profile sketch

  • Orientation option: "Follow Path"

  1. Glass Envelope
  • Constructed using "Surface Revolve":

  • Accepts open or closed profiles

  • Maintains non-self-intersecting relationship with axis
