It allows users to create surfaces by rotating a profile curve around an axis of revolution. This tool is particularly useful for creating cylindrical and conical shapes. For example, if you need to design a turned woodworking piece, this is the feature you\u2019ll use most often.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tools for creating folding and unfolding surfaces also allow users to create complex shapes by folding or unfolding basic surfaces. The tools for creating curved and free-form surfaces also allow users to create complex shapes by modifying the control points of existing surfaces. <b>Constrain a spline<\/b> \"On-screen touchpoints\" is one of the features most commonly used by industrial designers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Users can also use surface modeling tools to create complex shapes by combining several different surfaces. The tools for <b>surface fusion<\/b> allow you to merge two surfaces together to create a single surface, while the tools for <b>surface cutting<\/b> allow you to remove part of a surface to create a new shape. With a little practice, these \u201cBoolean\u201d tools make it very easy to create, for example, a housing for an electronic component.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is also possible to use surface modeling tools to create complex shapes using <b>B\u00e9zier curves<\/b> or <b>NURBS<\/b>. These curves make it possible to create more fluid and natural shapes that can be used to create complex surfaces.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In conclusion, creating complex surfaces in SOLIDWORKS requires a good understanding of the available tools, but once mastered, it allows users to create realistic and intricate shapes for professional applications.<b>It is important to practice and experiment with surface modeling tools<\/b> to become comfortable with creating complex surfaces.<a href=\"\/en\/startup\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Feel free to check out our SOLIDWORKS training programs.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New: SOLIDWORKS CLOUD OFFER<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A new SOLIDWORKS online offering is now available, featuring fully web-based, highly powerful modules for creating advanced surfaces.
