Fillet between two touching flanges

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hello,

 

I have been testing Fusion 360 for a few days and already faced a problem I cannot solve by myself. I want to create an "inverse fillet" between two touching flanges on one edge. Please see the attached screenshots, the place of the fillet is marked in blue. On the second screenshot is the only possible way I can make a fillet and I want to achieve the opposite effect.

 

Everything is within one body.

Your taller and shorter plates are not a single, contiguous piece, evidenced by the vertical line between them (and of course by your fillet results). Either you've got a very thin gap between them, or you've split them somehow, or something.

 

If you made them separately and then brought them together, they are not a single body. You would have to Combine/Join them first.

Can you explain the logic of why you created as two touching flanges rather than as one single flange?

(I assume it is because you didn't know how to do as two separate heights in one flange feature.)

Can you File>Export your *.f3d file to your local drive and then Attach it here to a Reply?

I don't think it's sheet metal. No inside radius on the bend. I think he's just mistaken about it being a single body.

@chrisplyler, thanks for quick reply!

 

I made this using Sheet Metal. First I created sketch for the base, then I flanged it for thickness and on one of the edges I added a flange. Using Two side/Offset option i adjusted the width on this flange, next I added second flange on the same edge and set full edge (the rest).

 

This is sheet metal. The radius is set to smallest possible i think 0.01mm. I just have a part that I need to bend like this.

 

This is exactly what i want to achieve - two different heights in one flange.

Okay my mistake then.

 

Of course, if you did it with two different flange events, then they are separate. Their edges may be right up next to each other, but they are not contiguous. Thus the vertical edge line between them.

 

You should do the full width in ONE flange event, then cut off the height delta with a regular Extrude or something.
