How to create a smooth profile

Objective:

Create a smooth profile polygon using a points list.

Applies to:

  • Using a solid body to clean a hole
  • Custom curved profiles 

Procedure:

1. Points List: Enter point values that map out your general shape; you can edit these later to achieve a more precise result. 

2. Spline Through Points: Insert the points list using the Spline through the Points block. This will generate a line connection between all of the points. The Degree input allows for adjusting the degree of the curve. 

3. Please use the Profile from Curves to create a profile from the Spline generated in the above step.

 

And that’s it! You’ve successfully created a smooth profile polygon
