AutoCAD Inventor :: Unable To Create A Flat Pattern From Derived Sheet Metal Part
Nov 9, 2010The company I work for has a large number of Left Hand and Right Hand sheet metal parts. To reduce the amount of time needed to create both Left Hand and Right Hand sheet metal parts, I use the Derived Part icon. I create a Left Hand part, use the derive icon with mirroring on and create the Right Hand part. While the Right Hand sheet metal part gets created, the Right Hand part will not allow me to create a Flat Pattern.
what steps must I follow to create a derived sheet metal part that I can make a Flat Pattern with?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Derived Part Flat Pattern Or Multi Flat Patter In One Part?
Feb 17, 2010I can't find a way to create multi flat patters in one part from a lofted sheetmetal part. Also, didn't the developers fix the 'can't make a flat pattern from a derived part'?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Unable To Create A Flat Pattern
Mar 7, 2013I want to creat a flatpattern of an iregulary cut cylinder that was made in the standard .ipt world and is now converted into a sheetmetal. I want to "Unroll" the piece out so can see the shape of it as a flat piece. Picture of it is attached.

Jul 19, 2013I can't get Inventor to create a flat pattern of the attached sheetmetal part. It's a pretty basic part, just five folds. I'm not getting any error issues - when I go to the flat pattern it just shows the folded part (picture attached).
I assume it has something to do with the way I folded it and the notches, etc. Inv makes to accomplish the fold. I'm using Inventor 2013 on Win 8.

View 6 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: Flat Pattern Of Part With Flanges And Fold Won't Generate
Sep 26, 2011The last feature of this L-Bracket is a fold. When I create the flat pattern it is only unfolded, not completely flattened. Prior to INV 2009, I could get a wireframe flat pattern with the part still folded. Since then, I have to unfold to get a flat pattern. The only way to show the formed part and flat pattern in IN2012 is to use a derived part with the base component supressed and the base component with the fold supressed.
How to be able to simply flatten this part so I don't have to do extra work with two parts
AutoCAD Inventor :: Sheet Metal Part Has No Flat Pattern Button?
Dec 19, 2011I have a sheet metal part that is not showing a flat pattern button in the ribbon (two parts actually). Please see the picture attached. The workflow for this part is as follows:
1.) Create a master/skeleton sketch of my floor plate layouts for a platform I am currently doing
2.) Derive that sketch into each floor plate part
3.) Extrude the layout sketch
4.) Convert the standard ipart to a sheet metal part
5.) Set my sheet metal rule to match the thickness
6.) Add a flange to represent a stair nosing
7.) Look to my Ribbon to create a flat pattern and....
As a test, I created a new standard ipart (no derived sketch) and converted it to a sheet metal part, added a flange, and still no flat pattern button.
This can't possibly be by design, so what am I missing?

Dec 30, 2013I'm having trouble creating a flat pattern from a solid i've modelled.
Workflow: Created a 2D sketch in xy plane and extruded -1084 mm in z dir. Created cut, and extruded slots which were then patterned with rectangular pattern.
Converted to sheet metal, and then tried to flat pattern.
Tried to remove all features exept the 1st extrude, still having the same problem.
I have tried to set the correct material and sheet metal defaults, but still no luck.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Create Flat Pattern From Scaled Derived Sheet Metal Part?
May 2, 2013I'm attempting to create a mini version of a product, I use the Derived Component button and scale the part down.

View 5 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Inventor :: 2009 - Flat Pattern From Derived Mirrored Sheet Metal Part
Sep 17, 2009I created a sheet metal part with multi-edge flanges; the part unfolded no problem. Now, I need an exact, mirrored copy of that part [new part number]. My first attempt was a mirrored component at the assembly level. The part was mirrored but it would not unfold. My next attempt was a derived part with the mirrored option selected. This part, too, was mirrored but would not unfold either.
"In sheet metal parts, mirroring flanges or contour flanges created using multi-edge select is not supported." Is this why the flat pattern fails?
Is there a workaround? I'd hate to create the mirrored part from scratch when I all need is reverse bends.

AutoCAD Inventor :: 2011 Moving Geometry From Flat Pattern Sketch Space To Flat Pattern Space
Jan 2, 2012I am trying to export geometry found in a flat pattern sketch overlaid onto the flat pattern.
Since I am creating the output file manually I gather the flat pattern boundaries and bend center lines for output to a file.
When I add flat pattern sketch entities to the mix they do not overlay properly. What matrix would I have to push the sketch entities through to get them to the same coordinates as the flat pattern?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Keep Cut In Flat Pattern
Mar 2, 2012My next challenge with my rolled cone bottom is to place an oval in the cone that will give the right edges for the lazer pattern. If I create the cut while in the formed shape the edges are not perpendicular to the face in the flat pattern. If I place the cut in the flat pattern, it is suppressed when the part is returned to the formed state.
In other packages I would unfold the part, place the cut, and then refold it retaining the cut. How do we deal with this situation here?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Flat Pattern With Rib Features?
Dec 14, 2012My flat pattern of a sheet metal part fails when I added strenthening Press ribs to the middle of the part using an iFeature.
I know Inventor is not capable of flattening embossed sheetmetal but is there a way to still get the flat pattern & ignore the formed areas?
Seems to me I was able to add some model features in the past like bosses, extruded holes KO's etc & I could still make a flat pattern.
I know I can use derived part to do it but that adds complications.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Show Flat Pattern
Aug 26, 2012It's my first time using sheet metal in a drawing and I can't figure out how to show flat pattern in the drawing. When I insert the base view into my drawing, the bottom to "Sheet Metal View" to "Flat Pattern" is shown, but it's ghosted out so I can't select it. Is there something I have to do in the part drawing in order to activate this feature?

May 30, 2012So, I have an assembly with a sheet metal part and a lot of pressed studs, spacers, weld nuts. I'd like to do a flat pattern with these parts in it in order to give their positions to manufacture, because they have to be pressed and weld in flat pattern phase, before bending.
Is there any easy way to do this (instead of saving flat pattern as SAT and insert every components again)?
AutoCAD Inventor :: Flat Pattern For Hopper
Nov 17, 2011I have designed a hopper using the lofted flange command. It is a 24" sq going to an 8" diameter. I would like to apply the rip feature to make (4) separate sections for this hopper so that (4) separate pieces can be cut on a waterjet machine. I can make it so that only (2) flat patterns are required, (2) pieces cut for each.
Can this be done in Inventor 2011? Also, can you recommend a good book on Sheetmetal in Inventor?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Invisible Flat Pattern In IDW
May 3, 2012I just got around to installing my subscription upgrade from INV PRO 2012 to 2013. I am having trouble getting sheet metal flats to show up in the idw's. The folded parts are visible, solid parts are visible, etc. The problem seems to be specific to flat patterns. I have attached a screen shot of a sample part.
When I hover the mouse over where the flat pattern should be, the red dashed box which usually encloses the view shows up, however it is tiny. Barely the size of the view label.
AutoCAD Inventor :: Flat Pattern On Ellipse
Feb 14, 2013I'm having difficulty with a sheet metal part creating a flat pattern for it. The shape is an ellipse with the dimensions shown in the second picture. When I attempt to create a flat pattern it just shows the side of the part. The sheet metal defaults are correct for the part and it was ripped to created a base point for the pattern. I need to create a DXF for manufacture. I would just use the flat pattern it gives me and mirror it twice to create a pattern but it doesn't factor in the radius of the part. How to create a correct flat pattern for this item?
