Surface Modeling in Solidworks

Learn to set up a SolidWorks part and enable surface, mesh, and direct editing tools, then insert a reference image by sketching a nine‑inch line and adjusting transparency.

Sketch the blower nozzle by drawing a 1.7 in circle on the right plane, then outline the blower on front plane with splines and a three-point arc, mirror and refine.

Master sketching the partition spline in SolidWorks by creating splines to define a separation contour, using left clicks and holding control to disable snap tracking, then exiting sketch mode.

Create a revolved surface from a spline with a 360-degree revolution, then generate a swept surface for the handle using a reference plane and an ellipse profile.

Master surface modeling in SolidWorks by merging surface bodies, trimming, splitting, and knitting surfaces into a single main body.

Apply fillets to edge details, fill surface holes, knit surfaces, and merge them into the main body, then extrude spline contours to create extended surface shapes in SolidWorks.

Offset the main body inward by 3 mm, then organize by renaming each surface extrude and offset surface in the feature manager using front view for orientation.

Apply the split and trim tools in mesh modeling to cut bodies, turn off visibility for inspection, and rename the resulting surface bodies.

Transform surface bodies into solid parts in SolidWorks by using splines and extruded surfaces, applying shells and fillets, then splitting for distinct solid bodies and refining with edge fillets.
