  • Joining CAD Faces to create one body instead of multiple
Tips
  • The output of this block is always a list

Example File

Download Example: StitchCADSurfaceBodies StitchCADSurfaceBodies Stitches together adjacent CAD faces into a single CAD body. During this operation CAD faces are not merged into a single face or surface. When this operation results in multiple CAD bodies an error will occur, instead use Stitch CAD Bodies which can return multiple bodies. For those looking to generate a Lattice across multiple CAD faces, it is recommended to generate a quad mesh from this block and then use the Cell Map from Quad Mesh + Periodic Lattice Blocks.
