flattening alucobond composite sheet

[cen82]

Is there anyone who can tell me if inventor manages to manage composite plates "alucobond" or similar?? ? ?

Can't you consider the sheets that have as thickness the sum of the thicknesses that make up the composite?
you can create a doc material that has the right specific weight.

the fact is that the sum of the thicknesses for example is 3 mm, but the development of the panels should be calculated as if it were 1 mm . (the values 3 mm and 1 mm are not sure, but surely the concept is that). therefore only the flat model should be calculated as if it were of a different thickness. ......

Hi, I don't know well in the inventor detail, but I think it's a problem... I with sw did not succeed (and cmq was a quite simple job and had not hit too much the head); the problem, if I have not understood bad, is that there are two bending modes, the traditional one (and there is no problem) and the one with milling, in which you go to download the two internal layers, and bend only the outer layer of aluminum, and this type of bending is not possible to me as "standard sheet"

Yes, it is true, in this case, there are no problems with the software, in fact I have some doubt because if you fold a composite in classical bending machine will tend to crush in the bending area. . .
However, a similar argument had been addressed in this discussion::smile:
