sheet metal - form

[giogio_6]

Hello everyone
I tried to follow the pdf manual on the sheetmetal, but I couldn't solve my problem.
I tried to use the form command of the sheetmetal module (pro/e wf4) and would be interested in obtaining the development of the sheet metal. However, the size of the sheet always remains unchanged. How can I do that?
Attached the files I used to test.
Thank you very much

Bye-bye

I don't think you followed the manual literally, because the approach is not the best, I attach the files modeled correctly, the first starting from solid, as in your example, and the second directly from sheet metal.
for the other case or make the piece with a mold, or with two parts.

Hi.
Thank you so much for the answer and the files, but maybe I didn't explain my problem well. I tried to use the form command of the sheetmetal module, to "form" the sheet (prt0002.prt.1) with the punch (prt0001.prt.1).
I would like to know how I can make the size of the deformed sheet (using the flatten form command I get the original sheet, with the same size)

I'm sorry, but I didn't understand what you wanted to do, I didn't realize that a prt is the punch and the other the finished piece and I don't know the form command, for which I don't say, we hope others can help you.
greetings

At least one rage of presentation should be done, before placing punctual issues. . .

development is the same and must not change.
the form simulates a local plastic deformation...
force with the presentation ... senó "scancello" you and the discussion
