Abstract
Curve sweep represents an important general form for defining the spatial shapes of different cross-sections, changing along a pre-defined curve. This feature is particularly useful for creating pipelines and other free-form linear profiles. It is applied to different examples, such as springs or lighting equipment, which proves its universal applicability. Examples of complex shapes show possible applications in different fields of industry.
