Sheet metal is metal formed by an industrial process into thin flat pieces.
Extremely thin sheets are considered foil or leaf and pieces thicker than 6 mm 0 25 in are considered.
Our sheet metal design will use the following specifications.
Simple three line sketch to test our sheet metal gauge tables.
You use the sheet metal defaults dialog box to select a sheet metal rule.
Sheet metal gauge is based on the weight of the sheet therefore a sheet of two different materials with the same thickness may have different gauge numbers.
When working with sheet metal a gauge table in solidworks can be used to ensure the correct thickness is chosen for your selected material along with the manufacturing properties as well.
Solidworks 2016 sheet metal gauges may 2016 duration.
Sheet metal is one of the fundamental forms used in metalworking and it can be cut and bent into a variety of shapes countless everyday objects are fabricated from sheet metal.
Sheet metal gauge size chart gauge or gage sizes are numbers that indicate the thickness of a piece of sheet metal with a higher number referring to a thinner sheet.
To help this blog will explain the gauge system and features a sheet metal gauge chart.
We are now ready to use these sheet metal gauge tables.
Thicknesses can vary significantly.
A single table lets you associate a bend allowance bend radius or k factor with any combination of thickness bend radius and material.

Sheet metal gauge bend tables store properties for a designated material.
The equivalent thicknesses differ for each gauge size standard which were developed based on the weight of the sheet for a given material.
