Creo Sheetmetal Training
Creo Sheetmetal Training Description
Creo Sheet Metal allows flexibility in design. Changes are made and updated parametrically throughout the entire design process. This comprehensive suite of Creo sheet metal design tools helps users create features such as walls, bends, punches, notches, forms, and relief features. Using a variety of Y and K factor bend allowance calculations, designers can create flat patterns of the designs. The result is parametric, fully-associative solid models of sheet metal parts and assemblies. Participants have the option to customize this course to fit project requirements. Seasoned sheet metal users should consider our Mastering Sheet Metal training intensive. Your team can also opt for a customized full week of Creo Sheet metal training.

Sheetmetal Training Projects
- Layout and develop Aluminum bracket then add a Flat State instance for the detailed drawing
- Build another bracket with bends and extruded walls with a variety of challenges
- Model dust cover for back of computer using stamp and form features
- Create multiple parts that lock together in a sheet metal computer power supply
- Convert an enclosure to sheet metal from a solid geometry
- Several brackets, deep drawn form, and combination
- Curriculum can be combined with Creo Surfacing tools for automobile sheet metal functions or for smaller battery contacts to mating components such as sheet metal boxes to house a computer power supply
Creo sheetmetal training Discussions
- Discuss differences between Creo thin features and Creo Sheet Metal
- Flatten out the part to visualize design and manufacturing needs
- Make Drawings of the sheet metal part, incorporating Dimensions, Bend Order tables, Flat Patterns & fully designed parts
- Discuss order of feature creation
- Discuss a wide variety of convert tools
- Discuss why rips are important with respect to stretching
- Discuss warn out tooling and how to compensate using Bend Tables
- Creo IGES & STEP imports and converting those files into a Sheet Metal part in order to flatten
- Manage the flattened state with various techniqes
- Discuss modeling techniques such as starting out with non-sheet metal models and converting to sheet metal later to take advantage of shell features
- Flexible modeling with respect to Sheet Metal
- Use of top-down design to manage the fit of multiple sheet metal housings.
