The direction of the depth automatically coincides with the sheet metal part to prevent a disjoint body.
Solidworks sheet metal simulation.
The streamlined study setup in solidworks simulation requires the geometry to be created using solidworks sheet metal entities.
The depth of a tab feature is automatically set to the thickness of the sheet metal part.
The 3dexperience works simulation portfolio includes the ability to simulate the metal forming process.
You can design a sheet metal part on its own without any references to the parts it will enclose you can design the part in the context of an assembly that contains the enclosed components or you can design the part within another part document in a multibody environment.
Forming processes may include stamping punch stretching forging drawing and more.
This can be accomplished by creating a new model constructed with sheet metal features base flange edge flange miter flange etc or an existing solid body.
We will focus on the flange method where a sheet metal part is created in the formed state using specialized sheet metal features.
You can create sheet metal gussets with specific indents that go across bends.
We can use these features to create sheet metal designs with several different methods.
Adding sheet metal gussets.
In this tutorial video i will show you how to use forming tool in sheet metal i hope you will enjoy the tutorial please subscribe our channel for more v.
Sheet metal parts are generally used as enclosures for components or to provide support to other components.
Solidworks 3d allows you to quickly create sheet metal part designs using a simple design process saving you time and development costs thanks to specific sheet metal features.
The products can be leveraged on solidworks models when connected to the 3dexperience platform.
