Help me to design infinity eight.

How to fillet the intersection part of two rings.

Accepted answer

S. Gayathri,

The "trick" to modeling this part in CATIA, is to use 2 GROOVE features of circles equal to the inside diameter. (This was suggested by Strong Dinasaur in a Challenge Group)

Then you should be able to add the internal Fillets on all 4 edges.

Step 1: Make an "O" shape in a plane (let's say XY). Then pad it to create 3D figure.
Step 2: Chose a perpendicular plane (let's say XZ) and make the same "O" again. Create it's 3D figure.
NOTE: Make sure that the inner circumference of first design coincide with the outer circumference of other design.
Step 3: Use fillet to smoothen the edges along the circumference. Add colour as per your need.
I hope you shall have the desired result.
Thank you! Best wishes!
