Project Cut Pattern on Folded Part.


Recommended Posts

Posted

Is there a way to project a cut features created within the flattened pattern onto a folded roll formed part.

 

 

Example cut out of flat pattern:

Will not project on folded model:

I believe I have seen it done in inventor...

Did 2010 have Unfold and Refold? If so - use that.

Do not make features in Flat Pattern.

 

If 2010 did not have Unfold/Refold then you will have to use Cut Across Bend with a little trick.

But I'm pretty sure Unfold/Refold was introduced in 2010.
