flat pattern

Hi,

Can we create a flat pattern for part like cup or a tumbler.  (Not a sheet metal bend part but a drawn or formed part)

I use inventor 2012.

thank you

Hi Rajeshindi,

a surface can be flattened if the deformation of the base part is only two dimensional. For a part that requires the material to be deformed into three dimensions this is not possible. In cases like this you will have to go with additional software / add-ons like EasyBlank for Inventor.

 

Regards

 

Matthias
