Swept Boss Base on SOLIDWORKS

The Sweep feature uses multiple sketches. A sweep is made from a profile (cross-section) and a path, and can create a boss or a cut feature. If you want, you can also use guide curves. Sweeps can run the gamut from simple to complex.

To make the sweep:

Sketches must be a closed, non-intersecting in the plane or face profile.

If using guide curves:

Create the path if you want to add a relationship between the path and the point in the profile sketch.

Create the guide curve if you want to add a relationship between the curve and the point in the profile sketch.

Create a path for the profile to follow. Use the sketch, existing model edges, or curves.
