Sheet metal bent in the shape of a propeller

Rounded to the hundredth on the other hand.

You have great tutorials on Lynkoa, do a search, there are videos that explain it very well.

OK

I'll look again

In any case thank you all

Solidworks does not have a sheet metal module (stamping) that allows such a part to be made.

Simpa your piece, you did like me in my 3rd post and then you applied a deformation... Not at all...

I know that there is a stamping function, but I don't know if it is compatible with the conversion to sheet metal, in any case I didn't succeed.

 

So it bothers me, it's true that if someone has a solution I'd be curious to see the method used, I'm still a beginner in sheet metal work.

David.heyraud.fs your method seems to me the most appropriate to have only one body, on the other hand are the dimensions respected? And the flattening is not correct.

I thought a little about your play.

 

I think we have to work in the other direction.

Rather than creating a volume, we should rather remove material to create a volume.

 

So I would do:

 

Creation of a cylindrical sheet

"Normal" material removal to create the shape in front view

Then add a swept fold.

 

I'll try during the day if I have time

"Are the dimensions respected? And the flattening is not correct."

The unfolded seems correct to me as well as the unfolded dimensions: I measured the width of the folded and unfolded sheet metal and it seems correct to me. To be checked

 

Hello 

I expressed myself badly DSL.

I wanted to say do the dimensions match between the two parts (step & deformed part)?

The lg developed is correct in relation to the flattening, but should it be oriented in this direction?

No no, I didn't get it

Indeed, the dimensions are not the same...

You should know how you plan to make this part so that we can do it according to your means of production... It can be done in several ways, starting from a strip and putting a fold that bent and pulling or starting from a notched disc to raise the edge with a sheet metal worker and then pulling or by stamping. the choice is vast....

Given the thickness (10mm), I think it would be easier to make it in two welded pieces, unless you have the means of production that are fine.

me concretely 

I'll make your puck in surface 

I will give it thickness on both sides

transformed it into a volume

and create a cup 

and then distort via the distorted tool

for the fab ditto or a good press ;-)

and for the unfold extend the cutting length to the axis (the surface) straight curved straight

you your diameter between the length of unfold

so you have the unfolded of your part to make the same flat part with the right dimensions

if I don't say too much it should work ;-)

@+ ;-)

It is an EP.10 washer, with a cut-out to then be stamped.

The shape of the propeller and the fold are therefore made with a press.

As for the piec in surface, I didn't understand everything!?

It is not a sheet metal part, so it is impossible to make sheet metal. I don't think the sheet metal module is capable of handling a simple helical surface by the way.

Must:

- draw it on the surface and thicken the surface

or

-draw the part in 3D on one side and then refine the part by removing material until 'shifting the surface', using a shell function, removing material with an offset surface..

 

The result will be the 3D of the desired part. Then it's up to the stamper to deal with it (it's his job after all...)

There is no real solution!

The solution would be by stamping

But solid does not have the stamping module to make this part

THANK YOU

But solid does not have the stamping module to make this part

This is obsolutely false 

You just have to create your own tool and then you can create your stamping

so I put -1 on the answer that you validated as best

See this tutorial among others

I had already tried this solution but on my puck it doesn't work

but if you succeed, I'm a taker...

give me the dimensions of your washer STP

and I look at it right away
