The extension works inside of Inkscape, letting you start your projects with a set of automatically generated box sides. Change the color fill and stroke to better see the overlapping areas. NB : Each diameter is placed on only one circle so as not to overload the drawing Ĩ.1) Open the drawing with Inkscape software Ĩ.2) Use the Bézier curve and line segments function to place all the lines, starting by folding lines represented by interrupted line Ĩ.3) Placing mixed one-point lines for axes of revolution and symmetry Ĩ.4) Placing text for annotation and product information to finish the drawing Ĩ.5) Remaining space can be fill with an isometric view of the folded part, as below.Though, it might not be as fluid as hand drawn animations or 3D work. Enclosure is now complete !ħ.2) Add a new page using a selected template or using the default template ħ.3) Add a 2D projection view of unfold sheet metal ħ.4) Add a horizontal length dimension, vertacal lenght dimmension and diameters as below NB : invertbend parameter allow to fold in other direction, so that the right side is folded Ħ.4) Repeat the same operation for the second fold : select face -> select edge -> Fold a Wall Ħ.6) And so on. There are 5 circles in the first section, 7 in the second and 1 in the third Ģ.4) Apply vertical and horizontal alignment constraints as below, by selecting the centres of the circles to be aligned and then using the Vertical and Horizontal functions (shortcuts "V" and "H") Ģ.5) Add diameter constraints as follows: 12.00 mm, 11.12 mm, 6.30 mm (2 slots), 9.52 mm (2 slots), 3.17 mm (7 slots) Ģ.6) Add the distance constraints starting with vertical constraints as follows Ģ.7) Add horizontal distance constraints as follows ģ.1) In same sketch, add a circle of diameter 6.35 mm with distance constraints as below (76 mm and 13 mm) ģ.2) Select the circle and click on Rectangular Arrayfunction ģ.3) Set rectangular array with 4 columns and 3 rows, equal vertical/horizontal spacing and constrain of separation between elements ģ.4) Click on OK and then in any direction to place the array ģ.5) Constrain the elements with a spacing of 13 mm and a horizontal direction ģ.6) Make a Symmetry of the rectangular array ģ.7) Constrain the symmetry with a horizontal alignment and a distance of 25 mm.Ĥ.1) Use Pocket function to create holes from the sketch ĥ.1) Create a new sketch on sheet metal face ĥ.2) Create a Line at the first bend with Coincidence constraint as below ĥ.4) Repeat the same operation for the second bend : create a new sketch -> create a line -> leave the sketch Ħ.2) Select the designed part and first edge Ħ.3) Apply Fold a Wallfunction to fold a wall at a chosen line Step 2: Sketch of components mounting holesĢ.1) Create a new sketch on face to be drilled Ģ.2) Sketch vertical construction lines at the bends to add visual cues to the sketch Ģ.3) Sketch circles as below, positioning them approximately at their final location.Step 1: Modelling of the sheet metal shapeġ.6) Extrude a solid of 1.5 mm from sketch (with Pad function) ġ.7) Make a symetrical extrusion with Mirrored function in the plane corresponding to the vertical sketch axis (here YZ) ġ.8) Set Refine parameter to "true" to remove the centre edge. ![]() ![]() ![]() Step 7 to 8 provide some tips to make drawing with all required information to manufacture the enclosure. Step 1 to 5 show how to model the enclosure starting with flatten sheet metal. This tutorial explain how to make a sheet metal enclosure on FreeCAD 0.19 using a Bench Power Supply as an example.
