Folded a flat piece

3D Design Sheet Metal / Machine Welded

Hello

I have no knowledge of sheet metal work and I have to fold a flat piece in a line (yellow line on the sketch). 

I have to bend the end of my arm about 10°.

What is the procedure?

Thank you.

Hello David.

  1. Convert the part to sheet metal
  2. Make a Sketched Fold

Hello

You can also draw your part already with the bending and then convert to sheet metal like fred17100 did it there it will unfold too.

How do I fill  in the propertyManager?

 

5

Can you be more specific in your questions??

I wanted to know what to put in all fields. Bend radius, K-factor,....

7

You have to enter screws, bending parameters according to the tools, screw brakes...

Hello

I would like to bend parts according to recovered dxf files.

I imported my .dxf with the folds, I created my sheet, but I can't bend it according to the sketch using the "Sketched Fold"

can you help me... Please ;)

I just found it was just a stroke texture issue... Laughing out loud

Now I have another problem, I can't adjust my loss to the folds

either I'm good in one way or the other ... but not the 2 at the same time 

It must come from the table, but I don't know how to modify it or create another one 

Looking forward to reading you...

Hello

enclosed the document. You have to put your inscription and your fold markings into a construction line then convert to sheet metal and then create a sketch then convert the entities of your fold line then use the sketched fold function and the trick and done
