Sheet Metal Conversion Default Bend Radius

Question:

During “Sheet Metal Conversion”, relations are added.  How do I make the default bend radius = T x 1.5?

After you convert the solid part to a sheet metal part, you can modify the relation for SMT_DFLT_BEND_RADIUS and the regenerate the model.  Now, when you use the conversion to rip the corners, the radius will default to the value set. (Click on image to view full size)

  1. Hello,

    Is there any way to modify the standard relations when converting to sheetmetal? I want to change it to SMT_DFLT_BEND_RADIUS = SMT_THICKNESS*1.25.

    Is there any way to make this default?

    Thanks
