represent processing phases

[GianniM]

I have this doubt here today.
design a perforated and calandered metal tubular, because so it must be assembled.
However, for processing it would take a design in which you can see the same perforated but uncoated piece, to separate the processing phases.
at this point how can I represent, momentarily, the profile straight if however I draw it curved?

Do I need to redesign the pieces?

Can't you convert it to sheet metal and create sheet metal development?

Maybe you can post an image of the piece to figure out what it is?

 

[GianniM]

thanks for the answer. My question is a theoretical question does not concern anything in particular.
Let's say I have to draw a profile like thiscalandrato and with holes.

first they make holes, and then in a second phase of processing bend it.
in drilling normals you should not see the fold, but the profile must be shown straight. It is not a matter of plates that can "explain".

if to bend the profile you use fold part , and you do not create already hundred, you can suppress the processing (piegaparte) and use a visual representation.
I didn't try but conceptually it should work.

 

[GianniM]

is the command "full part" not only for the sheet module?

no fold part is found in the edit section
you may be confused with flange

I put some pictures of what they mean they're more explanatory.

 

[GianniM]

ok I made a part with a folded profile. Now how do I put it on the table?
It's not like a set where I can create more views by moving the parts. if we suppress bending processing this is suppressed in all views? How do I proceed?

thanks for the help

You're right, but I found this little trick.
I copied the solid with object copy and I created two views in which each one is visible a solid at a timeAll this, even if it works, it seems to me more like a force, especially because I don't know how it can affect the mass of the part when inserted into an aid, I don't have all this preparation to help you more, I'm sorry.
it would be interesting if some professionals prepared to enlighten us the right solution.

would be an interesting function, if you find the way

cmq thanks for trying:finger:
Perhaps it is a limit of the program, or we hope that someone who knows how to get around the problem.

Hi, I didn't realize you meant a profile and not a sheet.

The method they have already indicated for me is fine.
I normally proceed as follows:

1) I create the part of the profile excluding the fold part and save it
2) I create a second part where the previously created part comes, I use the command folds part and save.
3) in the table I call part 1 to have the explained profile and part 2 to quote the folded profile.

I hope I've been clear.

 

[GianniM]

Great. then I solved in the following way and it works well. I create the part so tops must be. I then create an ipart in which I leave a configuration with the feature and one in which we suppress the bending process.
Finally I make the table, when I insert the inventor piece from the "model status" menu, I can choose which configuration to use. In this way with only one piece, which remains in the axieme with all the others, I can make more put on the table with the different stages of processing.
I thank all the speakers for the advice, one piece at a time we have come to head with a clean and functional solution.

congratulations giannim this is a more natural solution than my?? ?

 

[rf.infissi@libero.it]

I would like to share a particularity by applying the giannim:

Suppose we create a round sketch and insert a 30x30 profile with the frame generator (as image)
once you create me enter with open (and not double click) in part 30x30 and we carry out an extrusion of the sketch profile contained in the sweep from the initial floor to the final floor, then applying the gianni metedo we have the frame with ipart both round and straight where can describe the processing.

It's an application that can be very useful if you create frames with curved parts.

If I wasn't clear, let me know.
