SheetMetal Improvements SolidWorks 2010
Closed Corner Improvements
You can now use the existing Closed Corner command with a greater variety of sheet
metal parts.
You can use the Closed Corner command to add material between sheet metal features:
- When there is a cut across Flanges


- When the part is created using Insert Bends or Convert to Sheet Metal
- With faces that are part of a larger corner
The new Automatic propagation option controls automatic recognition of matching
faces. It is enabled by default.
If you delete a face from one of the face set selection boxes, the option turns off to
let you make manual selections.
Helm Improvements
Improved sheet metal hem functionality lets you design more complex sheet metal parts.
When you add a hem to a sheet metal part edge, you can now edit the hem profile to
control the length. You can build the hem according to design requirements, even when
it is not applied to the whole edge. You can also add hems to selected nonlinear edges.
You can:
1. Add hems to edges on different levels.
2. Change the size of the hem feature.
Flat Pattern Improvements
Graphical highlighting of self-intersecting flat patterns makes it easier to recognize areas that need improvement for manufacturing.
You can also turn off the Normal cut option. This minimizes the weldment gap for
manufacturing of rolled sheet metal parts with cut extrudes and produces a flat pattern
with different outlines for the inner and outer faces of the cut.
