Description: 5 minutes; Lab exercise: 20 minutes
You can integrate a new surface to an existing face using a birail. The surface interpolates the birails and the new surface can be added and connected to the given part. Working with a lower resolution (1e-3 or 1e-4 mm) will help to keep the data size of the surface low.
In this case, two faces are split by an imprinted line.
![]() Spine is orange, Profile is blue, and Birail is white. |
![]() Result of guided loft: A third surface is integrated into the previous two.

When you select the imprinted line on the surface as the Spine and there is no birail, the surface looks like this:
