To Glue Faces in the Main Menu select Repair - > Glue Faces.
This operation glues faces that are coincident with respect to the given tolerance value.
Arguments: Name + Shapes + Tolerance value.
Advanced option: Set presentation parameters and sub-shapes from arguments.
The Result will be a GEOM_Object.
TUI Commands:
geompy.MakeGlueFaces( theShapes, theTolerance, doKeepNonSolids ),
where theShapes is either a list or compound of shapes to be glued, theTolerance is a maximum distance between two faces, which can be considered as coincident. The doKeepNonSolids flag allows to throw away non-solids from the result, if false. The Result will be a new GEOM_Object.
It is also possible to manually select the faces that will be glued - select the shape, specify the tolerance and press Detect button.
Geometry module detects the faces where gluing can be performed and displays a notification.
The faces that can be glued are colored in red. It is possible to select the faces for gluing in the 3D viewer. The selected faces will be marked in white.
When the faces are glued their edges are glued as well. By default, other edges are not glued. To force gluing of all edges, check Glue all coincident edges check-box.
TUI Commands:
geompy.GetGlueFaces( theShapes, theTolerance ),
where theShapes is a list or compound of shapes to be glued, theTolerance is a maximum distance between two faces, which can be considered as coincident. The Result will be a list of GEOM_Objects (faces), containing one sub-shape per each detected set of coincident sub-shapes. For example if there are two coincident faces in selected shapes, the result list contains one of the two coincident faces.
geompy.MakeGlueFacesByList( theShapes, theTolerance, theFaces, doKeepNonSolids, doGlueAllEdges ),
where theShapes is either a list or compound of shapes to be glued, theTolerance is a maximum distance between two faces, which can be considered as coincident, theFaces is a list of sub-shapes to be glued. The doKeepNonSolids flag allows to throw away non-solids from the result, if false. The doGlueAllEdges allows to glue all edges, not only owned by glued faces. The Result will be a new GEOM_Object.

Our TUI Scripts provide you with useful examples of the use of Repairing Operations Glue Faces.
