Hi all,
I'm looking to make sheet metal parts in Creo, but for whatever reason, the sheet metal function is unavailable. If I try to create a new part, the option for sheet metal is visible, but greyed out and unable to be selected. I attached a picture for visual.
I also tried to make a copy of a sheet metal part and manipulate that to work around it. When doing this, I can do some basic operations, like extrude, but most sheet metal specific operations are not available (bends, etc.). I am also unable to convert a solid part to sheet metal in the operations menu.
It is M150.
Any ideas, thoughts, work arounds, solutions?
Thanks
Mike,
Sheetmetal will remain inactive if Creo is not configured with Sheetmetal license. Please check Sheetmetal license in your license and configure Creo to get sheetmetal license.
Hi Mike,
Launch Creo and go to File > Help > System Information. Under Configured Option Modules, you should see SHEETMETAL listed. If it is not, then the option is not part of the license, which is why the Sheetmetal is grayed out.
You will need to contact Licensing to get it added to your license. If it should be part of your license, then you should either check with Licensing to verify or the Tech Support Installs team to help you configure your installation.
Thanks,
Amit
