Get Started with Sheet Metal - SOLIDWORKS Online Trial
The video demonstrates key sheet metal tools in SOLIDWORKS, guiding users through creating edge flanges, editing custom flange profiles, and adding further flanges with defined angles and lengths. It shows how to build tabs without adding bends, apply sketch bends, create fillets, and use the jog tool. The tutorial covers unfolding bends to add features like centre‑point slot cuts, then folding the part back into position. It concludes by generating a flat pattern and exporting it as a DXF, offering a practical introduction to sheet metal modelling within the SOLIDWORKS online trial.
