Fusion 360 Sheet Metal S Bend

After all a company s goal isn t to just create shapes in a cad program.

Fusion 360 sheet metal s bend.

Link to vote for improved sheet metal tools in fusion. We re calling these sheet metal rules in fusion 360. Omit bend extent lines omitting bend extent lines will not fully remove bend lines but will give only one line per bend rather than three. The goal is to create an actual physical product.

Not only can fusion 360 bend up sheet metal it can also take your design all the way through to manufacturing your part. Thickness bend radius k factor relief shapes etc. Unfortunately sheet metal will only unfold developable surfaces. The flange tool itself will only create developable surfaces.

Properties are the root of how sheet metal designs behave. While there is not currently a way to fully omit bend lines from a 2d drawing of a sheet metal flat pattern in fusion 360 there are a number of ways to work around this limitation. Our intention is to provide you a simple way to build your library by providing you with a handful of starter rules you can copy edit and save to your library.
