"Smoothing" or "Boundary" function error

Hi all

I don't understand why the smoothing function doesn't work in my case.

I have 2 sketches, 2 guide curves that join the 2 sketches well. At first glance he succeeds, but he does not want to validate the function.

The error message is: "Cannot make two flat end faces to cover the side of the sheet"

I also tried with the boundary function, the error message is this: "The function could not be created because it will create intersecting geometry"

I don't even understand the meaning of the sentences...

What more SW does he want?

Thanks in advance;)

Hello @Lucile;

Despite its apparent simplicity, your part poses a lot of problems for SolidWorks if you just give it the two end sketches and the two guide curves of the lateral shape. When he proposes a result, the geometry presents anomalies, even when multiplying the number of guide curves.
And I concede that the error messages are rather obscure.

On the other hand, by offering it 4 sections as profiles and the two lateral guide curves, the result seems to be in line with what is expected (subject to careful checking).


Kind regards.
