Lamera pigment at 360 °

hi to everyone, I am new to the forum and the environment 3d in general. I just started using solidworks and I immediately came across a problem that is trivial for those who know but impossible for me that software only know it through a very short course made more than seven years ago.

the question is simple: how do you bend a 6mm thick sheet in order to form a ring?

thanks in advance

but do you mean a single (so circular), or a series of "pieghettes" to form a "closed polygon"?

However in principle you should start from a sketch of the profile you will have to get (a circumference or a polygon), sketch that clearly will have to be open of a minimum quota, and then with linguetta flangia on base extrude your "virola".
is only one of the methods; If you place a sketch of what you want to get and explain better, you can be more specific.

Yes! a displacement. I think I understand what you're doing and I'm trying to do it right now.
a question: but drawing it already circular after I can straighten it to have development?

thanks for the help
Hi.

the simplest system:
sketches a bow with angle 359°, select tab flange base... and the game is done.

you can also use the bending with loft.
create the sketch of the calandrated profile on a floor; carry the same sketch (convert entities) on a floor at the appropriate distance and then create the loft. In this case it is a fictitious loft because between two identical profiles, but I find it more manageable for the calculation of development.

Yeah, sure.
It's the easiest way to get the most "strange" profiles.
