Hey everyone,
I just recently started an engineering internship and this company uses ProE WF4. I don't have any CAD work under my belt except for a semester at Purdue. I am having some troubles and can't seem to find a solution. I've tried looking around the forums with no luck, probably because I don't think it should be that hard to fix.
Anyhow, my troubles are as follows. I created a sheetmetal part then flattened all of it using the unbend function in the right-hand side toolbar. I flattened the entire part to make a sketch on the flat surface in which I was trying to cut away some slots. the slots I was trying to cut away do go through a bend although my part fails to generate when I rebend the part (supress the unbend feature).
Am I going about this the wrong way? I really get caught up with some of the nit-picky things in ProE, the software we used at Purdue sure seemed a lot more straight forward but I'm sure this software has its advantages as I'm aware it's used throughout many companies. I know it's probably a dumb question but I've been stuck for a few hours now. I thought of it like how it would be manufactured in the fact that the slots would be cut away before the part was bent. Does this make sense? I can upload pictures if need be. Appreciate any and all help in advance.
Thanks all!
