Sheetmetal for Welding individual pieces

shawnchambers — Thu, 21 Feb 2019 17:03:23 GMT

I'm pretty new to Fusion 360. I like using the sheet metal feature to auto flange metal, miter the corners, etc. But I don't have a large sheet metal press. So lets say I'm designing a truck bumper. I would like to do so, but without the bend gaps and without the round cutouts in the corners. This way I can create a flat pattern, export it to cad, and then break up the pieces so I can cut them individually on my plasma table and weld them up. Can this be done?

I've attached a test file where I was able to get the gaps close enough... but the corners are wrong.

Thanks.

Take a look at the screencast. You need to change your corner option to "Linear Weld". Change this setting on your last flange.
