6. Sweep Solids Moving an object along a path. –Generator = sweeping object: curve, surface, or solid –Director = path Common for modeling constant cross-section mechanical parts. Translational sweep (extrusion): moving a planar curve or planar shape along a straight line normal to plane of curve. –More generally, sweep one curve along another. Rotational sweep: rotating a planar curve or shape (with finite area) about an axis. Source: Mortenson, Ch 10
