Hi @timileyinariyo1656, I wouldn't recoomend using the same values everywhere. Better start with small steps of reduction and observe the model. The moment you are happy with the reduction without changing the model geometry is your number. Another reason to go on small steps is that if you try to reduce with too much on complex geometry your computer may have trouble to calculate the change. I hope this helps 😉
This video is great! i'm stuck at the beginning where Decimate Mesh is applied, however, my screen doesn't show Decimate Mesh command anywhere in the Mesh Modeling tab, i have 2019 Solidworks, could this be why i don't have that feature.
Yes, that's the reason. Decimate mesh is introduced in 2020. Also keep in mind that I work with the latest version in my videos and even if some feature is available in so much earlier version it can behave in a different way.
This needs investigation of particular model with the fail, the reasons can be anywhere around the model, but you receive this error when you have : zero thickness, self-intersection, etc. You should find the error and fix it.

Yet to try this but I have learnt alot from this video. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
What did you do in the last step?
Cut with Surface
Thankuu so much its very very help full
I'm happy it helps you. This video was inspired from many questions I had in LinkedIn related to imported STL, mainly from 3D scan.
Hi, the facet reduction numbers you inputted, how did you come about that? can I use the same values for all graphic models?

Operation failed due to geometric condition, is there any solution about that problem?

This is solid 2022?
This is SolidWorks 2023 Maker, it's corresponding to SolidWorks Professional 2023 with slight differences. But Mesh features are available since 2018.

you click to fast
I'll do my best to improve. Thank you!
