Ello,
I have a terminal that I wish to model in sheet metal due to multiple forming operations. This terminal has three different thicknesses which there are bends on two of these thicknesses. I can model the part buy can't get any bends to take. Is there a way to bend a part like this?
Thanks, Gene
You could model this part as a standard part, then create a family table version that shows the flattened state. Use relations and two curves to tie the leg size together, so if you lengthen or shorten one leg, the flat version will update automaticaly. We do something similar to this with square and rectangular tubing.
