A face is typically the base feature of a sheet metal part. To start, you sketch a profile that represents the shape of the face, and then you use the Face command to create a face. |
When creating a sheet metal face, you can create a bend between a new face and an existing face. The faces are automatically trimmed or extended as necessary to create the bend.
You can also override default sheet metal styles from the Face dialog box as you create your sheet metal face. These settings include how the flat pattern unfolds, and the bend relief settings between faces.
