Sheet Metal Question

Sheet Metal Question

Sheet Metal Question

(OP)
Hi there,

Having trouble modifying a cylindrical sheet metal part. I'm trying to create some cuts that will show in the folded and unfolded part.

For some reason the cut is going all the way through my sheet metal part. The cut depth is only .05mm and the plate thickness is 10mm.

Any thoughts as to why?

 

RE: Sheet Metal Question

SW cannot compute non-uniform thickness sheet metal material. It is probably recognising the cut as being "linked to thickness".

Thanks Cor.
