New in SolidWorks 2015 - LOFTED BENDS (NON-PARALLEL PLANES)

Lofted Bends (Non-Parallel Planes) - New in SolidWorks 2015

You can create bent lofted bends from sketches on Non-Parallel planes. In the previous versions of SolidWorks, the planes had to be parallel.

Shown below are two non-parallel sketches

In the Lofted Bends command, we can select the two sketches and are presented with a preview and Faceting options.

Finally as shown below, Bent lofted bends form a realistic transition between the non-parallel profiles.
