How to create a surface body from faceted data in SpaceClaim?

[prajput]

You can use Skin Surface feature under Tools tab to create surface patches from the faceted data. Once you have the faceted data, using Skin Surface feature you can select the facets  by taking reference of underlying faceted data points, and thus create patches. Later on, you can stitch those pathes to create surface body.

The Auto skin tool is not working on my model. When should I use Auto skin?

[prajput]

The auto skin works on faceted body which is relatively smooth and error free.

When I use box selection, it does not work. Can you please suggest workaround?

This could be since the model has large facets. Try remesh the facets using 'Regularize' command and then use 'Skin Surface'
