Sheet metal hem

Creates a folded hem along sheet metal edges to strengthen the part, or eliminate sharp edges. You can create single, double, rolled, and teardrop hems.

Access:

Ribbon: Sheet Metal tab Create panel Hem

Shape

Specifies parameters that define the type of hem, its shape, and extents.

Type - Drop-down list allowing the selection of a hem of the following types:
	Single Creates a single hem.
	Teardrop Creates a teardrop shaped hem.
	Rolled Creates a rolled hem.
	Double Creates a double hem.
Shape - Selection and values which determine the shape of the hem.
	Select Edge - Use to select the sheet metal edge to create the hem.
	Flip Direction - Click to flip the direction of the hem.
Gap	For Single and Double hem types, specifies the distance between the inside faces of the hem.
Length	For Single and Double hem types, specifies the length of the hem.
Radius	For Rolled and Teardrop hem shapes, specifies the bend radius to apply at the bend.
Angle	For Rolled and Teardrop hem shapes, specifies the angle that is applied to the hem.

Note: If needed, click the down arrow to use Measure, Show Dimensions, or Parameter List to enter a value.

Click More to access Width Extents options. Specifies the extents of the hem: full edge, width, or offset.

	Edge Creates a hem the full length of the selected face edge.
	Width Creates a hem of a specified width at a specified offset from a single selected vertex, work point, work plane, or planar face on the edge of an existing face. Optionally, you can specify that the hem is a specific width centered on the midpoint of the selected edge.
	Offset Creates a hem offset from two selected vertices, work points, work planes or planar faces on the edge of an existing face.
	From To Creates a hem whose width is defined by selecting existing part geometry (vertices, work points, work planes, or planar faces) that defines the hem's from and to extents.
