Loft with Guide Curves using SolidWorks

This is a tutorial for creating 3D geometry in SolidWorks using the loft command and the guided curve functionality. It is one feature inside of a pump drawing.

Thank you for this clear and helpful video

y'all are life savers, thank you

[@NiccoDubs]

Exactly what I needed, thanks!

[@shafagh_projects]

your Tutorial was Lifesaver. Thank you so so so so much.

Helpful, thanks

How do you prevent the lofting feature from removing your guide curves? Mine get removed as soon as I finish the lofting

[@MrMuldry]

I have the feeling for your project you might get smoother results using some helix as guide and only 2 shaping circles.

Thank you well done.

[@JohanFasth]

That can be done with a sweep with guides and a centerline to. Is there a reason to use loft for something that have the same profile?

[@divjhotsinghanand4042]

please help i exited my sketch and the edge wont get selected

[@ladieman050893]

thanks!

[@GinaRolandi95]

I don't get the tangent option when I select both lines
HELPPP

[@imjinrat2325]

Interesting exercise. It does leave you with .100" flats at the loft profiles. Also does anyone know a way to fabricate this part?

[@aus71383]

you can shrink those down to .000001 if you like

[@tetrabromobisphenol]

You can readily 3D print it by all common methods (SLA, FE, SLS) or get it investment cast.

i cant loft

[@krunalgoswami9785]

very nice tutorial but can u tell me how can i drft it on A3 size seet? i dont have any idea about that, and my dead line is on the way plz help me with that, and if u r making a video on that then plz like this comment so i will be aware of it, thnx
