You can achieve the desired result with something that isn’t a perfect circle… But you would have to use a Lofted bend instead of using Insert bend..... where you would create two sketches instead of one and “Loft” them together.
This feature is available in all versions of SOLIDWORKS, if you are getting errors it would be worth giving your VAR's tech support team a call and they can take a look at your model and find the cause.

Really? is this as good as it gets? this seems like a very antiquated method considering SW can do weldment features. Pipe notching is an integral part of pipe spools so it seems strange that there isn't a more robust and easier solution to generate notch flat patterns?
How you define angle 1.66
Thank you for that tutorial, it's helped me to make on easy way my flatten of cylinder.
Hi LLU! We love hearing that our videos have helped. Thanks for watching and be sure to share your favorites.
i want to verify that length in theoretical
Thank you
Thank you very much for this interesting way
Can we flat a 3d tube too...as I need the flat pattern of a tube that has bend

Is this only on Solidworks Premium? I get errors....

HOW TO DRAW PIPE IN 3D SKETCH AND ABLE TO UNFOLD TO GET THE TOTAL LENGTH? PLEASE ANYBODY HELP.
Can you do this with a shape that's not a perfect circle?

Great video, thanks!
Nice trick, I love it
helps me a lot. Thanks
thanks its helps me for making drawing of pipe surface for pipe notching
thank you!
Love it thanks useful!
Thankyou so much
very good :-) thank you
Thank you very much
