Flatten Form

Would I like to know when I apply a flatten form to a punch or die I obtain the real form of the blank for manufacture, that is, I obtain the original and real blank flat state?


Thank you,

For you obtain the part in the blank you should use "unbend all" after that you merge the sheetmetal (this is happen when you create sheetmetal separate), the punch or die give the form convex or concave in sheetmetal.

Jaecr, when you flatten a form you simply remove the form from the part. The result of flattening a form would look like hiding it.


Hope this helps
