(OP)
... how can I define the bend formular individual for a each single flange compared to the old sheetmetall functions?
- define a fixed extend?
... drawn cutout for example
for what use / and how to handle the validation parameters?
the documenation says nothing
thx in ad

RE: nx6 sheetmetall
As for creating a Drawn Cutout, go to...
Insert -> Punch -> Drawn Cutout...
As for the 'Validation Parameters', go to...
Preferences -> NX Sheet Metal -> Sheet Metal Validation
...and once in this dialog press the F1 key and when the help documentation, 'Changing the defaults', comes up, go to the bottom of the page and read the section titled 'Sheet Metal Validation'. There is also a link there which will take you to the document titled 'Validate NX Sheet Metal parts by running checks' which will explain how the 'Validation Parameters' are used to help assure that the part can actually be manufactured.

Bend parameters:
- define a fixed extend?
fixed parameters for example 5mm for exend are not allowed.
In my case we have table/list based on company knowlegde, with a fixed extend based on sheet thickness, bend radius, bend angle and machine tool. Is there a workaround to enter values from this list?
