Chamfering and Filleting on Sheet Metal Parts
Chamfering and filleting can be performed on sheet metal parts in the same way as on regular parts by selecting edges.
Previously, vertex fillets and vertex chamfers in the sheet metal catalog were applied using a drag-and-drop method. However, with the enhanced chamfer and fillet features, you now perform these operations by selecting edges.
The enhanced functionality allows you to apply chamfers and fillets to all corners of a sheet metal part at once.
Procedure:
[1] Click [Corner Break] in the [Sheet Metal] tab.
[2] Select Part
In case you check the [Apply to Entire Part].
Fillet application points are automatically detected.
In case you uncheck the [Apply to Entire Part].
You can select edges manually.
[3] Select Bend or Chamfer, then enter Radius or Distance.
Option:
[Select Edges from Face Selection] : Check this box when selecting the target edge with the surface.
[Apply to Bend Reliefs] : It is automatically detected if bend relief had been created.
