Features
Inventor sheet metal capabilities include:
- Sheet metal styles – Generate flat patterns that accurately reflect your manufacturing capabilities.
- Sheet metal flanges – Speed up the design of sheet metal parts with complex flanges using intelligent 3D models that take your manufacturing processes into account.
- Roll-formed parts – Create accurate digital prototypes that include roll-formed parts.
- Transitional shapes – Efficiently design parts for ducting, material handling hoppers, exhaust hoods, and other uses that require press-brake or die-form techniques.
- Sheet metal manufacturing drawings – Quickly create accurate manufacturing drawings to support sheet metal manufacturing operations.
- Unfold design workflows – Simplify the inclusion of punches, cuts, fillets, chamfers, and extrusions that span sheet metal bend plates.
- Flat-pattern modification – Optimize flat patterns to reduce costs.
- Punch libraries – Define your own sheet metal punch libraries to standardize punch usage and reduce computer numerical control (CNC) tooling costs.
- Sheet metal fasteners – Quickly insert specialized sheet metal fasteners into sheet metal designs.
- DXF Output – Eliminate effort spent cleaning up DXF™ files for CNC machining.
