Filled Surface
The Filled Surface
feature constructs a surface patch with any number of sides, within a boundary defined by existing model edges, sketches, or curves, including composite curves. You can use this feature to construct a surface to fill a gap in a model. You can use the Filled Surface
tool in these cases:
-
Correct a part that does not import correctly into SolidWorks (where there are missing faces).
-
Fill the holes in a part used for core and cavity molding.
-
Construct a surface for industrial design applications.
-
Create a solid.
-
Include features as separate entities, or merge those features.
To create a filled surface:
-
Click Filled Surface
on the Surfaces toolbar, or click Insert, Surface, Fill.
-
Set the PropertyManager options.
-
Click OK
