Fusion 360 Sheet Metal Design 2

Question 1

In Fusion 360's Sheet Metal workspace, what does 'Unfold' allow you to do?

Accepted Answer

Temporarily flatten selected bends so you can add cuts or features on the flat surface

Answer

Unfold lets you select specific bends to flatten temporarily, enabling features like slots or holes that span across a bend line.

Question 2

What is 'hem' in the context of Fusion 360 sheet metal design?

Accepted Answer

A folded edge that doubles back on the sheet to create a safe, reinforced edge

Answer

A hem folds the edge of a sheet metal part back on itself to eliminate sharp edges and add rigidity.

Question 3

Which parameter primarily controls the inner radius of a bend in a Fusion 360 sheet metal part?

Accepted Answer

Bend radius

Answer

The bend radius is the radius of the inside curve of a bend, controlled as a sheet metal rule or per-feature parameter.

Question 4

What does the 'Convert to Sheet Metal' command do in Fusion 360?

Accepted Answer

It transforms an existing solid body into a sheet metal part by identifying a face as the base flange

Answer

Convert to Sheet Metal allows you to take a solid modeled body and apply sheet metal rules, selecting a face to define thickness and material.

Question 5

In a Fusion 360 sheet metal drawing, what line type typically represents bend lines on a flat pattern?

Accepted Answer

Dash-dot chain line

Answer

Bend lines in flat patterns are shown as dash-dot (chain) lines to distinguish them from cut edges on manufacturing drawings.
