Surface Modeling in Onshape

A surface model is a thin shell that does not have a mass or volume. Surface modeling is a technique used for creating the external aesthetics of a product or design. It gives you the ability to build out a visual representation of an objects exterior and its contours.

Discover how to utilize Onshape's surface modeling tools in creating complex parts. Learn how a series of surfaces make up to create a part.

What is Surface modeling?

Surface modeling is a method of displaying or presenting solid objects. This process involves converting between different 3D modeling types. B. Transform 3D objects to display procedural surfaces, verify imperfections, and apply smoothing. Learn how to create, manipulate, and analyze complex geometry using surface modeling workflows.

Why master Surface modeling?

Surface modeling allows you to visually represent the appearance and contours of objects. that is, the surface. These objects can be mechanical parts like engines, or complex organic shapes like animals.

The key topics of this course are:

• Inserting a reference image

• Creating surfaces using different commands

• Turning a surface into a solid part

• Adding surface modeling techniques in your design arsenal

This course is intended for students and professionals who has intermediate knowledge about Onshape. For those who has experience in parametric CAD modeling packages you will be amazed with the fun challenges, tips and tricks that we are going to share
