Unfolded via insert a fold - No fold was found

Hello

I have a bit of trouble generating the unfolded of a body, I have tried a lot of techniques and in particular the one I master best "insert a fold" in sheet metal work but it always comes back to me "no fold found"

If someone can find a solution and technical I'm interested thank you

Here is the piece I created in 2016. We would have to go through the transition fold

super! Thank you, I tried but couldn't create the sketch of the profile, with which function were you able to perform the STP operation?

In fact, you have to create a low and high plane to define the height and place on these planes the arcs of circles of the desired profile and after making the two sketches you select them in the creation tree and you click on the transition folds function

I see, I'll try to reproduce your method! Thank you for your responsiveness ac_cobra_427, problem solved.

the problem is that it's a WWTP (even the . PRT is an imported part) ... So, it's going to be complicated to tell you where things are going wrong in your duties.

On the other hand, what I can see of it

  1. it's a rolled sheet metal
  2. you have 2 different spokes between the top and the bottom

So it seems to me compromised to be able to unfold it :slight_smile:

Edit: not fast enough against @ac_cobra_427 ^^

All that's left to do is validate the answer that helped you solve the problem
