SQUARE TO ROUND TRANSITION
SQUARE TO ROUND TRANSITION
(OP)
I just can´t figure out how to get the flat pattern (in sheet metal feature) when modeling a hopper (square to round transition)
Cone can be done easy, any other bending piece... but a cone with square base?
Does anyone have done this before?
Please let me know, because I hate going back to AutoCAD to do this flat patterns manually.
Thanks in advance

Maybe in 2008 something like will become possible. Best software to use for something like this would be Striker (AutoCAD add-in) or Rhino or something similar.

I downloaded a square to round transition as you describe many months ago from a website in denmark. Trouble is I dont remember the website url.
The problem with flat pattern for square to round transitions, is that there is more than one way a sheet metal mechanic might go about making them. I also have a sheet metal layout handbook which outlines the process for a square to round transition. You might find this useful to develop your own inventor model based on the preferred shop practices your own sheet metal guys will use.
