To Create a Revolved Segment
Use the Revolve tool to create a revolved segment or when a revolved segment is not the first segment to create a revolved solid cut.
1. Click > > 
Revolve. The Revolve tab opens.
Revolve. The Revolve tab opens.2. Make sure that the Type is set to 
Solid.
Solid.3. Select a sketch or click > and create an internal sketch to revolve.
 | In Sketcher, you can change the direction of material thickness and specify thickness for a section containing a single chain with tangent entities. Click > > . |
4. Under Axis, click the collector and select an axis of revolution. When you define the sketch, the centerline of the sketch is selected as the axis of revolution.
A revolve feature must contain an axis or revolution. The axis of revolution can be a geometry centerline created as part of the sketched section. The centerline is automatically detected during feature creation. You can also select any existing linear geometry that lies on the sketch plane, such as an axis, or a straight edge or curve to define the axis of revolution.
5. Select an angle of revolution option from the Angle list:
◦ 
Variable—Revolves a section from the sketching plane by a specified angle.
Variable—Revolves a section from the sketching plane by a specified angle.◦ 
Symmetric—Revolves a section on each side of the sketching plane by half of the specified angle in each direction.
Symmetric—Revolves a section on each side of the sketching plane by half of the specified angle in each direction.◦ 
To Reference—Revolves a section to a selected point, plane, or surface.
To Reference—Revolves a section to a selected point, plane, or surface.6. Select or type the angle value in the Angle box. Click

box, or accept the default value. Click to change the side the thickness is added.8. To create a revolve cut, click 
Remove Material. Click to flip the side where material is removed.
Remove Material. Click to flip the side where material is removed.9. To create a two-sided feature that is constructed on both sides of the sketching plane, perform the following actions:
a. Click Options. The Options tab opens.
b. Select an option to constrain the angle of revolution for Side 1 and Side 2.
c. Set the angle value or the reference plane for each side.
10. To set board-specific options, use the Options tab to perform one or more of the following actions:
◦ Click Add bends on sharp edges to round sharp edges when the sketch includes nontangent geometry. Set the value of the radius and the location for dimensioning the radius.
◦ Click Set driving surface opposite sketch plane to flip the driving surface. Use this option when the segment is not a first segment.
◦ Click Merge to model to merge the segment with intersecting segments.
To keep the new segment edges from merging with existing intersecting segments, click Keep merged edges.
