CAnnondale Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Hi, It has been a while since my last post here. I was trying to do a flat pattern on a object that has 2 different radius (DOME) like. Basically, I have a DOME and was cut and divided into 6 equally. And wanted to get the flat pattern of 1 segment. How do I do that in Autodesk Inventor 2012 suite? I have attached an image and the .ipt as well. Appreciate any assistance on this matter. Thank you, Willie BendPattern.ipt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JD Mather Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 Cannot be done in Inventor without an add-in. (can be done with the Contoured Roll feature - but the flat pattern result will not be correct) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mledingham Posted November 27, 2013 Share Posted November 27, 2013 what is the add-in? im trying to do something similar, its almost a complete sphere divided into 12 segments and im tying to get a flat development of the surface of the segments for a trial manufacture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
