flat pattern or smth else
flat pattern or smth else
(OP)
Hello,
Look at the attached file. this bended part is imported from solid works 2010. Is there any way to flatten it?
If I remove these "cuts" using syn.modeling with nx6, it is possible to get flat pattern. but it is possible to flat this model not removing "cuts"?
thanks.
nx 6.0.3.6 mp2 (testing)
win xp 32

RE: flat pattern or smth else
use analysis -> one step formabilty analsis
or use from the (old)sheetmetall tools metaform
maybe have to create an planar face to flatten on...
give it a try

I tried to use sheet metal forming/flattening, but it gives me only curved profile, not a solid. Actually I need unwraped solid, with its profile.
As mentioned hundson888, maybe I should try wrap/unwrap geometry?
