Facets

Geometry > Body > Facets

It is used to extract the CAD tessellation as mesh from the CAD body(s).

Faceting Parameter

The two faceting parameters, chordal angle and chordal deviation factor are used to control the tessellation. These factors control the degree of fineness of the extracted mesh.

Default facet settings should be OK for most geometries, but adjustments can be made. This option is typically required for complex curving geometry or very thin sections.
Note: Faceting parameter input is supported only for Parasolid models imported with the 'Save geometry in database' option.
