I drew a steel connector in a 3d cad program, and exported it as a .sat file.
This connector is a simple top plate 90 degrees to its side plate, with a knife plate protruding out at approx. 94 degrees to the back plate.
When I open in SW, and add bends, it adds bends at the 90 degree...
I am interested in purchasing Solidworks, for its great design capabilites, and also it's sheet metal module.
Will I be able to import an .acis file of a 3d steel connection, then unfold it in solidwroks, and from there, export the unfolded part as a .dxf/dwg file?
I need the unfolded part in 2d...
