hello,

 

I have done hexa mesh for bolt.

i have found that threaded part and bolt head are not together how to combine they mesh instead of go to freeze contact.

    Hi Teja

     

    You can try this

     Extract face elements of the Bolt stem (Hexa mesh)

     Then project those face elements in the direction of bolt axis to bolt head surface and mesh it.

    Hi Teja,

     

    May i know the reason behind, having head and thread part separately?

    You can model it as one component right.

     

    Thank you
