Sheet metal from solid

[Lars1978]

Hi All,

I've been trying to use the "sheet metal from solid" function out of the sheet metal environment.

It works!! Crazy thing is that when i'm trying to make a flat pattern out of it NX stalls.

Does anybody have a bright solution. I can't imagine why this part won't flatten ?

This part is made with NX11.0.0.33

Kind Regards,

Lars

It finally created the flat pattern. It took for ever. Something must be giving it NX Issues. Taking a long time to display this flat pattern also. I will up load file when done. The Flat solid NX had no problems with.

Here is the file.

I was thinking that when a "sheet metal from solid" is possible it should be easy to make a flat pattern ?

Am I wrong ?

I got the same behavior btw. Long processing times also with the assembly containing this part.

I would submit to GTAC> They may see something or it could be a huge NX 11 sheet metal issue.
