![]() With this feature, a solid object can be easily converted to a sheet metal part with required gauge, k-factor and bend allowances. SolidWorks offers a great feature called ‘Convert to Sheet Metal’ to help convert solid part to a sheet metal component which can then be flattened and utilized for shop floor requirements. ![]() CAD specialists also prefer to develop a part through solid or surface models for difficult sheet metal designs and then convert it into a sheet metal flat pattern. The major difference between a sheet metal and solid part is that for sheet metal, the part is formed from a flat sheet as compared to solid where the part is formed by removing material from a solid piece of metal. Making a sheet metal part is although quick, there may be instances when the 3D CAD modeling might be started as a solid and then the requirement would be of converting the solid to a sheet metal part. It is because of these friendly features that makes SolidWorks as one of the leading choices for engineers across the globe. ![]() SolidWorks sheet metal design capability makes manufacturers within the sheet metal product industry to easily derive flat patterns with required gauge and bend allowances quickly.
