How to Convert 3D part into sheet metal in Solidworks

[@yuloty9290]

Thank you for the great tutorial. Straight to the point and very clear!

[@_Farvez_CR]

i am following your all video, best tutorial in solidworks

[@A-n-t-o-n-y]

Thank you for the video. Is there a way to convert non-flat but rounded faces?

[@sameduzun8435]

Hello, Could you please make a video for drawing of alumınıum composite material ? This will really help me . ACM is a little bit different from the sheet metal as known.

[@hms1688]

Good work!!! We also have rich experience in sheet metal fab, we are a strong manufacturer in China, with high quality and competitive price.

What if you wanted all the faces to be individual 2D parts for getting cut from sheet goods? Not bent, but cut as flat parts so they can be welded/soldered/glued together depending on the material.

[@Swaminathan007]

You can save part as DXF file format, for that cutting operation can be done.

It helps me . Thank you very much

oh thanks sooo much !! this was cool to me, I was stacked already !!

[@mdshadequzzamansarker7842]

Thank you. I need this.

[@TheBeebalakumar]

Nice one

[@jobsagooden4640]

How would you actually form this part on a press brake? It doesn't look possible as too many closed faces?

[@KISSMYACE3203]

45* end first, the 2 long sides at edges of die, then 90* end last with super short die. I'm not a press brake operator but that's how I'd attempt to do it.

[@robertfernandes5692]

@@KISSMYACE3203 Too many closed faces. Only way to fold this is to introduce a slim slot along the bend lines of the two small tabs and then easy fold the part and weld/dress as a second op, but this would be pointless as it makes unnecessary sheet yield shapes and without a deep goose neck it would be needlessly awkward to fold anyway. Fold as a tray and weld a plate to the top. Simple.

[@MrSunrise-]

You don't. You form it with dies on a progressive stamping machine. Easy-peasy. Not all designs are manufacturable without special tooling, but with large enough volumes, intricate tooling is justified.

sir you really hero,

[@PSN99]

Bro...i want to convert solid into sheetmetal without gaps...it should be filled..what option i should choose...??? I mean it should be edge flange

[@gautamkumarday7265]

think you.... your videos are wonderful.......

[@gocbocphot1700]

Verry good

[@DanielJoseAutodesk]

Great Tool in SolidWorks....very good.... :-)

[@daudwilliam8062]

Thank you very much, well done

[@ankitmr47]

hi thank you very much for such a informative video it helped me a lot, Can yo make one video how to set up work space for sheet metal work, And is there any shortcut keys like we use in autocad for eg. for line L space for circle C space

[@mydreams299]

Thank you 👍🏻

[@harshitasrivastava6952]

I'm making a hexagonal closed box, but I can't seem to join the open butt edges. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

[@Swaminathan007]

You could use closed corner command in sheet metal

[@powershop1903]

is there a way to convert it into individual parts?

[@ahmedharfoshcnc]

well done . excellent

[@reket777pvl]

Rakesh from ownage prank started a channel about solidworks. JK thank you for the lesson

[@solidcreator6654]

Sir how can unfold a complete Forming part please suggest or make a video of this topic.

[@solomunallouche8425]

it changes the shape of my solid model how do I prevent that I want no gap distances just a sheet metal

[@dt_yt3395]

Could you make a vedio of Round flange

[@solidcreator6654]

Sir can you make a video of unfold a fully Forming part.

[@anj491]

could you please show me how to convert a step model to unbend .

[@blender_unleashed]

Watching you try and grab the timeline line made me bust out laughing

[@ABDULWAHID-qk3ek]

Sir you have telegram channel ?

[@Chineseshop]

Super

[@DaME476]

Thank you

Where's pyramid sheet metal?
