Morning,
Attached are two models I've started. The final design calls for 6, pie shaped pieces to form a shallow dome with a tapered edge. I wanted to make this out of two pieces, is there a way to covert these pieces to a flat patter so I can add cut-outs to all faces? Then I want to weld them together to complete the final assy.
Thank you,
Steve
Steve,
The only one you will be able to flatten with Sheet metal features is design 1. The others involve material deformation in two directions and can't be done with standard SolidWorks sheet metal tools.
Check out Insert Bends in the SolidWorks help for your first part.
Cheers,
Anna
