Fusion 360 Sheet Metal Thickness

Sheet metal thickness is typically specified as a gauge rather than a direct measurement as it is presented in fusion 360.

Fusion 360 sheet metal thickness.

Fusion 360 comes with a default library of sheetmetal rules. Fusion 360 has released the sheet metal modeling environment. Properties are the root of how sheet metal designs behave. The sheet metal rules in fusion 360 helps control the different sheet metal settings like thickness bend radius and reliefs.

Let s show how to create sheet metal bends folds flange unfold flat pattern and more. Our intention is to provide you a simple way to build your library by providing you with a handful of starter rules you can copy edit and save to your library. Fusion 360 has all the necessary tools to specify different rules for your sheet metal parts thickness bend radius corner relief etc now here is the fun part actually making some sheet metal. Don t forget guys if you like our vide.

So to figure out the thickness you want to use for the material it is useful to refer to a chart of sheet metal specifications. For this project i am using 18 gauge aluminum 5052 which is 1 02mm thick. Thickness bend radius k factor relief shapes etc. We re calling these sheet metal rules in fusion 360.
