Bend reliefs in sheet metal.
Relief sheet metal.
Click insert sheet metal corner relief.
Do one of the following.
Type smreliefcreate in the command bar.
Creates a corner relief where three bends meet at one common point.
You can add a corner relief to a single sheet metal body.
For example if you make a partial flange as above using all the defaults the software makes relief cuts at the end of the bends as shown to the right.
Each corner of the t is at risk of tearing if the relevant line segment is bent without proper bend relief.
Select an item see the note below.
Enter relief size by bend radius ratio or force bend reliefs.

This is due to excessive localized stresses from the work hardening forces imposed on the metal.
Preventing tearing and part deformation during the bending process.
Under corners click collect all corners to list all corners in the sheet metal body.
The corner relief is applied at the common intersection point of the bend lines.
In sheet metal a bend relief is an incision cut along the sides of a planned bend.
The model must have three bends where the bend lines meet.
When sheet metal makes a transition from a bend to a flat surface or to another bend it tends to rip and tear.
Creates a corner relief where two bends meet.
When designing parts for laser cutting one should not make holes smaller than the thickness of the material.
Sheet metal parts with a minimum of 0 9mm to 20mm in thickness can be manufactured.
Click the create relief tool button on the sheet metal ribbon tab.
Though bend relief lengths and widths vary between projects they all share a common goal.
A 1 degree tolerance on all bend angles.
To eliminate this a bend relief is added so the edge of the sheet metal is perpendicular to the bend.
Bends in sheet metal are manufactured using sheet metal brakes.
In general a minimum bend relief is equal to the material thickness plus the inside bend radius.
See the picture on the side for an example.
Similarly insufficient bend radius may lead to brittle fracture failure of the sheet metal.

Synchronous sheet metal is pretty cool even cooler than just normal synchronous modeling if you ll excuse that word.
