Hello,
I am working on a new way to model sheet metal drums we currently manufacture at my company. The flat patterns are typically cutout on a Trumph machine, then rolled and spot welded along a seam on the ends. The drums also will have a shaped cutout located in the middle of the part. I have attached one drum with the cutout, file 7501_DRUM_TEST.ipt The flat pattern looks perfect, but the "folded" model has edge problems on the interior shaped cutout where the radiuses intersect with straight lines (see model file).
Thanks for any help!
