Create flat patterns for all sheet metal in your assembly in a single action.
Video
What this tool does
From an assembly, Batch Flatpattern automatically generates a flat pattern in every sheet-metal part that doesn't have one yet. A time saver for production preparation on large assemblies.
How to use it
- Open the assembly.
- Click Batch Flatpattern.
- Thundercad runs through all references, detects sheet-metal parts without a flat pattern and creates them.
Settings
No separate settings
Batch Flatpattern uses the Inventor defaults for flat pattern orientation and rules.
Tips
💡
