Tubing bend problem, bend

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi, 

 

I am bending a laser cutted tube with the function bend. In order to get the result I want for the bend, I need to do 2 separated bends (shown in Tubing bend.png). The problem is when I do the 2nd bend, the desired fixed side of the tubing moves. So when both bends are done, my part is not straight versus the origin of the part.

 

I would like to keep one side of my tubing straight versus the origin of the part.

 

Can anyone help please,

 

Thank you.

 I am not sure if this will work for you if not let me know I have another way.

Hi! I just tried relocating the bend line to the other side and bend to the other side. It seems to work for me. Please take a look at attached part.

Many thanks!

jletcher My goal is to keep the laser cut so that I can bend the tube by hand. The solutions you offered seems to eliminate the laser cutting.

 

Thank you.

I was not sure you needed that cut or not I thought the laser did the holes and end cut.

 

The bend cut could be added easy to it.

 

But you are set.
