I need to add re-pads at specific nozzle locations on a round pressure vessel in Inventor. Our repads are OD/ID plates with the thickness varying based on code requirements, and vessel pressure. I can create a square shape that would conform to the shell OD, but can't figure out how to create a round shape that would wrap around the shell. Please help!
@Anonymous wrote: I cant see more than one radius in this example. The only one radius is the shell OD radios, right? I mean, try to create this part, but not bend it over a pipe, but over a sphere. I'm talking about a much more complex geometry, but the sphere is the basis for it.
That is correct. My post was in regards to the original problem. Our shop only fabricates developable parts - those that can be made by either braking or rolling, not stamping or forging. If you can mock it up with a piece of plain paper, it is a developable surface. Toroids and spheres are not developable.
