In this tutorial, we'll walk you through the process of creating a circular heat shield in Alibre Design Expert using the Sheet Metal environment. We'll focus on the Bend Only option of the Flange command, demonstrating how to use it twice in a row to make the material form a circle. This technique allows the radius of the formed circle to be collinear with the tab from which the flange originated... Roughly...

Let us tell you about the "Generator Triangle" method. This educational video unveils a straightforward technique to construct regular polygons using a single variable. Witness triangles seamlessly transform into polygons with adjustable sides. Explore parametric design principles as we dissect the process. With interactive visuals, grasp the method's accessibility for all learners. Ideal for students, artists, and those curious about the synergy of creativity and logic. Join us to demystify theoretical geometry, revealing practical polygon creation through "The Little Triangle That Could."

As the title suggests, I have watched Woody Allen's amazing commentary on Sex and the socio-biological ramifications of it. But back to SheetMetal in CAD. In this video, you will find everything you need to get started making Sheet Metal parts, making good parts and doing it reliably by verifying your design as you go along.

Alibre Design - How to Drive a Part From a Layout Sketch

In this tutorial I will use a 2D sketch of the layout of a fan scroll to generate a 3D sheetmetal part using Alibre Design Software. When producing a range of centifugal fans the performance of each particular fan in the range is governed by equations called the "fan laws". Once the actual performance of one fan in the range has been established the performance of all other sizes can be predicted by these laws. This makes producing a complete range of a particular type of fan an ideal task for a parametric 3D approach to produce the drawings and other details ready for manufacture. The main dimensions of our fan are based off the diameter of the rotor.

Print BIGGER Than Your 3D Printer! ⏩The "Wandering Square" Trick ⏪

Diablo II teaches us that the path of a Dark Wanderer leads to chaos. But the path of the Square Wanderer, however, leads to perfectly assembled, massive 3dprint. Today at ExMachina Engineering, we're showing you how to master the latter. This method moves beyond a simple slice-and-dice, creating strong, perfectly aligned, and nearly invisible seams. It's time to say goodbye to guesstimate-joints and alignment headaches and turn your standard 3D printer into a monster-sized fabrication tool.
