If you have learned the SheetMetal functionality prior to the 2008 SolidWorks release, then spend some time reviewing the SheetMetal functionality. Many new capabilities were added after the 2008 release.
2. Exercise 1 involves using base flanges, cuts, and chamfers to create a sheetmetal bracket based on given dimensions and design intent. 3. Exercise 2 uses flange features to create another part, demonstrating skills like base flanges, sheetmetal parameters, edge flanges, and tabs.
Create a new sheetmetal part using the following parameters: Unit System: IPS with a 3-unit decimal precision Part Material: Plain Carbon Steel with density 0.282 lb/in^3 SheetMetal Thickness = 0.125in Inner Bend Radius = 0.125in
The document provides a general description of the most common sheetmetal “problems” and misunderstandings, and compiles issues reported in over 3000 service requests from sheetmetal customers.
