Solidworks Simulation Sheet Metal

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.

Solidworks simulation sheet metal.

You can create custom operations to apply additional costs to sheet metal parts. Solidworks multibody part functionality lets you work with several bodies in one part to create complex sheet metal designs. In this tutorial video i will sketch self cutting sheet metal screw 4x20mm with anti theft fixing head in solidworks with the help of sketch and feature t. Multibody sheet metal parts can consist of multiple sheet metal bodies or a combination of sheet metal and other bodies such as weldment bodies.

Use the costingmanager on the left side of the solidworks software window to see how the costing tool categorizes each operation required for manufacturing the part. Sheet metal parts are generally used as enclosures for components or to provide support to other components. 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.
