Hi Everybody
I have problem with big bend angle.
As you see from attached file - it 20 degree angle, and SW don't want to unbend it...
Material- 16GA Stainless Steel (0.063") , as per my tables- for this material bend deduction- 0.1
When I put it- SW mark bend like mistake..
Wrote to SW support - receive answer :
"The only solution is to change the inputs for calculating the bend.
In this case it would be changing input for Bend allowance by either inputting a different value for Bend Deduction or using a different option such as K-Factor.
Increasing the Bend radius would also allow the bend to work. Adjusting material thickness may be a different option. "
Tried to switch from BD to k-factor (0.44) - not working
Tried to chage radius from 0.03 to 0.0625 (that tools which I have in metal shop)- same result.
Idea to adjust material thikness becouse SW can't calculate it is even not funny.
Please, let m eknow if somebody have REAL solution for this problen. I think, I'm not oly one , who need bend differnt , than 90 degree...
I need to receive real flat pattern, if I put numbers from the air SW will eliminate mistake, but flat pattern will be wrong...
