Hi everyone,
I am working on a project that requires a wavy, geometric relief pattern applied to a curved surface (panel), intended for Compression Molding part. I want to achieve a surface similar to the reference attached, where two or three sets of waves intersect seamlessly.
Constraints:
No sharp edges: Every intersection and ridge must have a smooth blend or fillet.
The result needs high surface quality for mold machining, proper draft angles, and a constant part thickness.
What I’ve tried so far:
Grasshopper: I’ve tried several approaches, but I’m struggling to achieve high surface quality and precise control over the intersections.
Manual Modeling: I attempted to model the waves and blend them manually, but the complexity of the intersections on a curved base made it nearly impossible to keep the surface patches clean and closed.
Given the precision required for mold machining and constant part thickness, how would you personally approach a project like this from scratch to ensure both geometric accuracy and surface smoothness?
