Hi,
I need to have the pipe length in the BOM.
How can I model the part as the attached image ?
I used weldment environment, but tell you how I modeled the 3D sketch I'm ashamed.
Have you a simple and rapid solution to create a rectangular helix, compatible with weldment environment (no spline) ?
Or if I create this with the sweep function, how can I put length pipe into BOM ?
Thanks,
Alessandro

1. Create rectangle helix using intersection sketch feature.
2. Pipe length can be measured by convert the rectangle helix feature into a spline.
3. Put the measured length into weldment BOM.
4. I have no idea how to do it parametrically (means the length of pipe will update while the model has been changed)
Hope someone comes out better solution.
