Hi pals!

Does anyone know how to extract mid-surface from Solids?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

No way, Eric is right, no CATIA available command for this, maybe something special developed by users or third party...

Hi,

Try doing the following: using multiple extract feature, get the surfaces from one side... then offset them by half of the thickness...

Hope this helps! Best of luck!

 
If you have V6 then there is a midsurface function[bigcheeks] but if you like me still run V5 then it's manual labor or create a script
