Lofting is distinct from extrusion and sweeping because it allows the profile of the face to be altered.

IronCAD[edit | edit source]

  1. Create a 2D sketch on the surface
  2. Make the profile that you want the surface to be lofted through
  3. Complete the sketch and make as many more as you need for the entire loft
  4. Offset the lofting profiles using the triball the amount you need them to be
  5. Doing the Loft
    1. Select Loft
    2. Select the part you want the loft from
    3. Starting from the surface on the part, select the profiles in order. A faint green outline should show up.
    4. Finish the Loft and see your new lofted part!
