Good evening,

I tried to search for a bit in the forum but, strangely, without success.

I have to make cutting templates for a curved pipe.

I try to explain myself better, I have to go cut a straight tube section to create a curve. How do I from the 3d to lay the cutting lines on the 2d? I try to attach a drawing that I hope to exemplify what I want to achieve
View attachment curva da 3d.pdf.

Can I help?

Thank you!
 
If you think of creating a curve with point and line projection methods, you can do without inventor or any other solid modeler.
the method is completely different:
1st. forgotten autocad
2nd think about how you would actually do to get a curved sector and apply sequences similarly with inventor.
3rd created a thick tube with profile revolution, using the firmness of not giving full revolution value, but of angle 359.99° (i.e. not closed but almost).
4th cut your tube with 2 floors to the desired inclination, so to form your curve element.
5° converts into sheet metal, from a sheet thickness equal to what you put in the sketch for the revolution.
6th flat model! you have thus developed your curve element.
at this point you can put on the table the flat model and quote it in order to give to those who realize the necessary instructions (method of 1400 b.c. . good luck), or:
7th right click on the face of the flat model -> export face with name.->dxf
with this last operation you can create the dxf to send to the cutting machine.
when you arrive successfully at this point, you can talk about adding some finesse.
What inventor do you have?
