Inventor corner relief question
Inventor corner relief question
(OP)
Hi,
I'm having a small problem trying to replicate a type of corner relief we currently use on our sheetmetal products, which are manufactured from AutoCAD drawings.
Attached is an example I created in Inventor by drawing the flat pattern, extruding and folding.

However what I would like to know is how to create this using the flange and corner seam functions.
I can already make the 45 degree relief cut using corner seam, it is simply getting the corner relief such a shape that it resembles the 3D and flat pattern examples.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Dean
