How do I sketch a pattern in SolidWorks?
To build a sketch driven pattern:
- Open a sketch on the face of a part.
- Create a seed feature on the model.
- Click Point or Tools > Sketch Entity > Point , and add multiple sketch points to represent the pattern you want to create, based on the seed feature.
- Close the sketch.
Can you pattern a pattern in SolidWorks?
To create a pattern of patterns: Click a pattern tool (Features toolbar) or Insert > Pattern/Mirror and select a pattern tool (linear, circular, or curve driven pattern). You can also use a pattern you created using X-Y coordinates (table pattern) or sketch points.
Can you pattern a surface in SolidWorks?
You can pattern solid geometry made from the surface, though. Matt.
How do I create a repeating pattern in Solidworks?
To create a linear sketch pattern:
- In an open sketch, click Linear Sketch Pattern. (Sketch toolbar) or Tools > Sketch Tools > Linear Pattern.
- In the PropertyManager, under Entities to Pattern, select the sketch entities to pattern .
- Set values for Direction 1 (X-axis).
- Repeat for Direction 2 (Y-axis).
- Click .
What types of sketch patterns are available solidworks?

How do you add a pattern to a surface in Solidworks?
To create a fill pattern, click Fill Pattern (Features toolbar) or Insert > Pattern/Mirror > Fill Pattern, set the PropertyManager options, and click . Parameters control the pattern layout.
How do you make a mesh pattern in Solidworks?
Creating a mesh is easy in SOLIDWORKS Simulation. To get started, right click on the mesh icon in the Simulation Tree and click Create Mesh. This will open the mesh interface. Think of meshing in SOLIDWORKS Simulation as having two levels: Level 1 we’ll call Quick Mesh and Level 2 is Advanced Mesh.
What are the types of pattern in solid works Assembly?

- Curve Driven Patterns. The Curve Driven Pattern tool allows you to create patterns along a planar or 3D curve.
- Linear Patterns.
- Circular Patterns.
- Sketch Driven Patterns.
- Table Driven Patterns.
- Saving and Loading Table Driven Patterns.
- Mirror Feature.
- Fill Patterns.
How many types of patterns are available in Solidworks?
Linear, Circular, and Curve driven patterns are all common commands used by the everyday CAD user. This blog will guide you through using these three pattern features in SolidWorks and provide context as to when they can be used to simplify the modeling process.
How do you fill a pattern in Solidworks?
To create a fill pattern, click Fill Pattern (Features toolbar) or Insert > Pattern/Mirror > Fill Pattern, set the PropertyManager options, and click . Parameters control the pattern layout. You can create a sheet metal perforation-style pattern, or a pattern of concentric shapes typically used to enhance aesthetics.
How do I create a fill pattern in Solidworks?
What are the types of pattern in solid works?
How many types of patterns are there in Solidworks?
What is the difference between linear pattern and circular pattern command?
Use linear patterns to create multiple instances of one or more features that you can space uniformly along one or two linear paths. Use circular patterns to create multiple instances of one or more features that you can space uniformly around an axis.
How do I create a variable pattern in Solidworks?
To create a variable pattern across a planar or nonplanar surface:
- In a part document, click Variable Pattern (Features toolbar) or Insert > Pattern/Mirror > Variable Pattern .
- In the PropertyManager, for Features to Pattern , select the features to pattern in the graphics area or flyout FeatureManager design tree.
