KOMPAS-3D provides various methods for building fillets.

When filleting edges, a surface is created that smoothly transitions from one face to another. At the same time every section of this plane built perpendicularly to the edge results in a circular arc of the given radius, an elliptical arc or a conical curve. You can fillet edges with variable radius.

Fillet edges:

a) the original state: an edge and a face are specified b) the operation result

You can create a full fillet. The full fillet is designed for three adjacent faces (sets of faces): two lateral faces and one central face. As a result of the operation, the central face disappears and the two lateral faces connect surfaces where surface section is an arc tangential to the three initial faces.

Full fillet:

a) the original state: three adjacent faces are specified b) the operation result

It is reasonable to create fillets at final stages of model creation.
