Hello,
Just learned how it works the forming tools.
Fully clear when it works on flat surfaces, but..... how should it be solved when forming tool must push on a bend ??
I have seen next way to do it: First standard model of the bump, and then shell from behind....
Really hard to believe that this is the appropiate solution !!!! On top of that, how should we unbend such a part ??
Can anybody give me advice on these technique???
Attached some examples of what I would need to do.
Thanks a lot
Pedro,
I'm surprised you haven't got an answer yet from the experts. Since SolidWorks doesn't flatten parts where the material is actually drawn, as opposed to bent, I believe that the gusset form tool has to be suppressed in the flat pattern configuration.
