Creo Sheet Metal Planar Bent

Figure sm 10 base feature blended wall flat sketch the boundaries of the wall fig.

Creo sheet metal planar bent.

5 blend create a sheet metal wall by blending several sections sketched in parallel planes as shown in figure sm 10. With creo 4 now it s just as easy. You can create two types of bends. Video shows how to create a planar bend in sheet metal environment using creo parametric.

More examles how to use this featu. One of the primary methods for manipulating sheet metal is bending. See convert a solid part into a sheet metal part for details. So what i did was build the extrude converted it to sheet metal driving surface and then added a bend feature selecting one of the end edges as the bend line the bend radius would be change from thickness to whatever diameter you are wrapping the label on to.

At least in what you re showing here the split geometry could be the cutout geometry with two extensions across the the surface at the bend line. I think you re going to be stuck though when the solid geometry begins to self intersect. For this kind of thing i think a spinal bend is a better choice than a toroidal bend. Just convert the imported 3d model into a creo sheet metal part by defining a driving surface and you re ready to go.

Figure sm 11 feature flat wall offset create a wall that is offset from a surface fig. In this tutorial i will create a mounting bracket by utilizing sheet metal capabilities of creo parametric 2 0 first of all base feature will be created usin. Now that you have a sheet metal part just go to the edit bend. Figure sm 12 base feature offset wall.
