Face Blend

Posted on December 6, 2019 by admin Leave a Comment on Face Blend

“Face Blend” creates fillet/fillets between faces. You can create fillets between faces that not connected.

To create fillet by using “Face Blend” command:

  1. Click the drop-down arrow below the “Edge Blend” to open other commands.
  2. Select “Face Blend” to activate command.
  3. Select “Two-Face” in the first tab in the dialog box.
  4. Click on “Select Face 1” in the “Faces” tab in the command dialog box if not highlighted. (At the start it highlights automatically. You can select the first face set at the start of the command)
  5. Select the first face set.
  6. Click the middle mouse button once to activate “Select Face 2” in the “Faces” tab in the command dialog box.
  7. Select the second face set.
  8. The preview of the blended faces (fillets) will be shown in the graphic window.
  9. Type radius value or drag radius arrow.
  10. Click the middle mouse button twice to finish command.

Problem:

I can not create a blended face between surfaces.

Solution:

  • The radius is smaller than the distance between face sets. Increase the radius value.
  • Selected faces are not enough to create a blended face. Select continuous faces. For example: In figure 2, I select extra faces. Otherwise, the command might give an error, If I increase the radius value.
  • The face directions are on the wrong side. Click on the face direction arrows to change the selected face directions. (Yellow arrows in the figure.)
