Hi all. I am working on a motion transfer assembly. I am trying to accurately model a timing belt that runs on offset pulleys (yes, I know this is an atypical application). I need accurate bends and twists in order to model appropriate intermediate rollers where the belt changes direction.
Belt path was developed by making an intersection curve from intersecting surfaces - see attached picture. I've attempted to model with sweeps and lofts but don't know how to approach the necessary twisting that occurs. Anyone have a good direction to suggest?
