Converting Parts to Sheet Metal in Autodesk Inventor

Autodesk® Inventor® has tools for creating sheet metal-specific features that follow a manufacturing standard, ensuring your ability to flatten your 3D model, allowing manufacturing to cut the flat patterns accurately. Here we explain the process of converting parts using Inventor.
Topics covered:
►Using Inventor to open Standard IPT’s and imported Parts
►Convert to sheet metal and flatten
►Modifying the flat pattern environment

holy cow, general modeling has always been something i found easy but getting sheet metal wasn't taught in my college inventor course. Great video, extremely helpful!

This looks like it will cut 10+ hours out of one of my projects. THANKS!!

Can you adjust Radius of bendings in a step model?

[@Hagerman]

You can, if you use the direct edit commands, or delete the geometry, then use the Bend command to rebuild the bends.
