Curved surface to sheet metal.

The basic tips for making holes in the sheet metal in inventor the problem of holes made in flat pattern and folded model. You have a curved surface on a sheet metal in inventor that you would like to punch perpendicular holes into. I ran through this very quick and messed up my terminology between transverse and longitudinal but hopefully it will still be helpful. If the question refers to sheet metal parts follow the sheet metal workflows to unfold a sheet metal part.

Creating single curvature into sheet metal is easy like rolling a piece of paper into a tube but double curvature presents significant challenges in manufacturing. How can curved or bent surfaces be flattened or unwrapped in inventor. However they do not show up on your folded model. To fix this issue all that needs to be done is to adjust the cut extrude so that the edge of the.

If the question refers to surfaces that are bent in only one direction but it is no sheet metal part. So what i did was build the extrude converted it to sheet metal driving surface and then added a bend feature selecting one of the end edges as the bend line the bend radius would be change from thickness to whatever diameter you are wrapping the label on to. When applying the insert bends feature located on the sheet metal toolbar or from the insert dropdown menu under sheet metal solidworks tells us a non linear edge at the seam of this cone is invalid. You attempt to make the holes in the flat pattern.

Sheetmetal from flat to curved. Inventor help i about sheet metal parts. This results in a curved seam edge. Unwrapping may be necessary to produce sheet metal parts or textile parts.
