What you'll learn:
- Create Sheet metal parts and flat patterns. Develop Sheet Metal models with fewer steps. Built sheet metal parts around an assembly.
Sheet metal can be cut, bent and stretched into an amazing array of shapes. To meet unique sheet metal design challenges, like manufacturability, Solid Edge streamlines the entire sheet metal product development process, from CAD design through flat pattern and drawing development. Unlike general purpose CAD tools, Solid Edge includes sheet metal-specific features, like Emboss, Dimple, Drawn Cut, Bead, Contour Flange, Straight Brake and Etch. This class introduces the concepts and best practices for creating 3D sheet metal models with Siemens Solid Edge software. A core design capability of Solid Edge is the Sheet Metal environment, which provides an entire design-through-fabrication workflow, using streamlined synchronous modeling methods tailored to the unique needs of sheet metal design.
