How To Change The Sheet Metal Defaults  In Inventor To Match Harris Shop Requirements

a. Click on SHEET METAL DEFAULTS on the sheet metal ribbon. you will get a pop-up window.

b. click on the lower right PENCIL icon. you will get a pop-up window.

c. click on the lower left IMPORT button. you will get a browser to locate a file. you are looking for the file in the 2015/build season (ROBOT) file called"90 Degree Harris Sheet Metal Bend Styles.styxml"

d. click DONE in the lower right corner.

e. you will be returned to the pop-up window

f.scroll down below the UNFOLD RULE and select "HARRIS SHOP".

g. click APPLY 

h. change thickness to .062, .093, or .125.

i. click upper right PENCIL icon

j. click on BEND tab

k. Change BEND RADIUS thickness to .032

l. click DONE

m. CLOSE

n. click SAVE

o. ALTERNATE: open the 'Sheet Metal Starting Point.ipt" and SAVE AS your new part drawing. do this immediately as we will overwrite or delete any part accidentally aved in the template file.

How To Submit Parts for Fabrication At Harris

Follow the steps below for proper modeling and submittal of parts. It is critical to understand the type of part that is being made (sheetmetal or machined) as this will dictate the model generation along with the types of files that will be required in order to physically make the part.

If you have any questions, please ask Amy Averill (aaverill ---AT--- harris --DOT-- com).

Steps For Fabrication

  1. Determine if the part will be a sheetmetal part or a solid part
    • Sheetmetal Parts: flat parts with holes that go all the way through the material, bar stock that needs to be cut to length, flat parts that get bent into a shape
    • Machined Parts: pieces with intricate surfaces made from a block of aluminum
  2. Model the part appropriately depending on if the part is Sheetmetal or Machined from a solid part in Inventor:
    • Sheetmetal Parts: Click on the link for general tips on bend radius and material thickness: Sheetmetal Parts
    • Machined Parts:
  3. Create the necessary supporting documentation for fabrication:
  4. Email the required files to aaverill ---AT--- harris --DOT-- com.
    • CLICK the links below for each file type needed to get a detailed set of instructions on what is required for each format and how to save the files!
