Sheet Metal Idea - Lofted Flange

pawel.potyrala — Tue, 21 Jul 2020 18:12:50 GMT

It is currently only possible to model a rectangular lofted sheet metal part in Fusion 360 (see: How to Model a Lofted Sheet Metal Part) It would be great to have a "Lofted Flange" feature in Fusion 360 equivalent to the one from Inventor.

Yes, I agree.

I have modeled probably 100 lofted surfaces in Inventor, thickened them and then unfolded them.

I am now using the exact same workflow/geometry in Fusion 360 and it is refusing!

Is this feature on the roadmap? Fusion really need this feature along with split command and better miter options.

yes, Lofted Flange is currently under active development. As always, I can't reveal/predict when it will be available, but I have seen early prototypes of it with my own eyes, so I can say with confidence that it is coming...

That’s really good news. Is there a place where we can see the roadmap for sheetmetal like for the 2d drawing space?
