Bending Circles

I have a component that needs to have a bend on an ID. I
have a preform and form dimension on the drawing, but I am
not sure how to do the bend on the circle. Any help?
 
You could do this a couple different ways. You could draw it as a solid making the flanges as a swept protrusion and then convert to sheetmetal.


Or, you could use a form feature in sheetmetal.


Or, you could create it using a flange wall.


I would use a flange wall.
 
Agreed, with last option, I would just create a flange wall along that edge of the circle
