Unfold Complex Surface

Anonymous
Not applicable

Can anyone help here? I'm trying to create a flat pattern on the attached windsail. Surfaces have been generated using MODEL commands & a thicken offset command of 1mm. I've then converted to sheetmetal & set the default thickness. I know Inventor can have issues with parts created outside of the Sheetmetal environment!

 

Does anybody know of perhaps any add-ins or third party software that could possibly handle this?

 

i'm using Inventor 2018 btw. Thanks in advance Glen

try right clicking on the Surface Body in the browser, what options do you get?
