173 SolidWorks Sheet Metal Tutorial SWEPT FLANGE; cases to work; open path;

welcome to tutorial number 173 in this
tutorial we will talk about the last
command from the sheet metal mania flash
and we will see how to get the flash
command and shape in the menu we'll have
a look at some cases where this will
flash will work compared to the previous
types of slip in the solid feature and
surfaces also we will have a look at the
type of path and profile to use to
create the swift clash and then we will
have a two examples using flash and then
compared with the mitre flash
so first of all if you go to the sheet
metal menu you will not see the suit
flash to locate the sweet flange come on
go to customize right-click on the menu
customize and then go to commands sheet
metal and here you will see the slip
flourish come on
so you can drag it and put it on the
menu so we have the last command over
there if you hover over them should
flash you will see the profiles or path
it can be closed path or an open path
and we will make an example for each
case but the main difference with the
sheetmetal sweet flag that require some
certain type of paths and profiles
the order for this roof flash tour
to make it clear let's start to make the
first switch flash this make a path put
the top layer and this may just person
to pass straight line he said and go to
the front player to create a profile if
you go to let's say this make an ellipse
partial ellipse
and let's make this point this point
close it up and we're going to cheat
with the swift flash you see the profile
is selected the partial Philips
on the path it see this line click OK
you'll notice you'll notice an error
that only parks and lines are low grade
sheet metal should plan exhibit the
command and typical example to the Swift
surface the profile and the path you
notice it will work in the surfaces so
the special case in the sheet metal
should flash you need to follow some
certain that profiles so let's edit the
profile the ellipse and believe that
ellipse and make instead just one line
except go to sheet metal shift launch
the profile this line and is this sketch
and here you'll notice you'll get a
similar options which we talked about
before and then click OK this is a very
simple not nothing special in this
example
- let's start a new boy and make a piss
flushed selectively
Centrepointe rectangular with that
this flash the thickness let's make it
one millimeter okay
now let's pick the right plan make a
sketch for the profile in this case we
will show you there are second case when
the flash one floor so they just make
simple to file on the right plan and
let's define it the dimension of 155 and
here 15 from here 35
and accept or we can directly go to this
web slash the the profile is selected
and here we can select the edges the
syllabus we can select it just but this
case will not work because the sketch or
the profile should be perpendicular to
the beginning of the path so this is
click OK and you will get on the arrow
that the plan should be normal to the
edge so let's accept that sketch instead
make the sketch in that plan click
sketch normal tool and select this time
this time convert entities now go today
sheet metal strips flange select this
edge that edge and you will notice that
you are able to slip from the edge and
you will you may ask yourself that might
be similar to the matter flash it is not
there are some differences so that
depends on which type of shape you need
and here depending radius is 2
millimeter you can change an example to
5 - the change for the anchors and as
where you can select the flash
parameters inside or outside and say oh
let's make it outside and click it so
here as you may - whiplash from the clip
and you create continue
box and this was able to be flattened
vaginitis order and here you see
depending lines down the success
now we restore another part to create a
swift flash where the matter flash is
not able to make it so start a new part
click ok select the top layer and select
climb this make buff for example the
snake fridge this it's me these resent
an undefined it at some dimensions let's
make this 500 on this 350 this is the
path which we need except Cindy the
floor plan if you make sketch in the
right plan it might not work because the
plane is not perpendicular to the edge
select the front plane normal to less
snake
this what is the file in listen 150
in this add some relation these are
already driven Diplo and here as well
this equal
in those lines equal as well and 25 suma
made this a special profile without
adding any racist it will be added when
we use this with lunch
so now the profile is ready go to cheat
meter swift flash as you notice only the
swift flange command is available for
this profile on the base flash pupil net
click on the baseline you'll treat only
a straight profile there's just a
concept lash the profile is selected and
select the path and let's make them
bending radius 5
click okay so we have this the fridge
this or something it is stated to be
flooded as you knew this order and here
of the bending lines
you
now let's see the difference between
this whiplash and the might of lunch we
made this part in one of the previous
tutorials the tutorial about the mighty
flange a later on we will the edges so
we could do also the same type of box if
it is possible to be manufactured by a
sweep flash and make it suitable for
holding liquids instead of making me boy
mighty flange from then welded so that
depends actually in the top material and
manufacturing process so it is not
possible to be made by swift flash then
it can be done by the matter flash let's
have a look at the cross-section of this
profile so we have profile looks like
this so let's sort a new part to make a
similar profile select the top layer and
make the base plate little equal in
defining the mission of 150
then go to this flange and have one
millimeter thickness click ok now go to
that pace about the starter sketch
normal tool and this may file
can be something like this this is
planet 45
let's make this dungeon and this
and CBS 15 so here we have the profile
fully defined go to sleep lunch and
select the engines
and this name ending radius to be one
millimeter and flange position outside
click okay so we have now continuous
edges without any gaps as seen in the in
the miter flange case over there so we
have a continuous wall and it is
suitable for holding liquids this kind
of profile may be a little bit detailed
and can be difficult to be flattened as
you notice over there we can go on edit
the sketch
we can move this part except under
strike to flatten and here you get your
meter tank
except and we can try him manually
instead
you
