Hello
I have a sheetmetal forming company, and recently several customershave provided me with SW 2 D drawings that only provide dimensionsto some feature in the bend (maybe center of bend radius), angle ofbend, direction of bend, and radius of bend. I have to go back andask them to dimension the formed drawing in x,y, and angles.
This is time consuming and I suspect if I can learn how to usethese drawings in setting up the backgage dimensions that my setupswill be much quicker.
What I need is information on how to use the SW 2D drawings toactually make real parts. Can anyone help or point me to a resourcethat can help?
Thanks much
