Beyond The Bend: Advanced Techniques in SOLIDWORKS Sheet Metal

May 3, 4:00 – 6:00 PM (UTC)

Benin SOLIDWORKS User Group

Sheet metal design is often seen as a straightforward process of "flanges and folds," but there is a world of advanced logic hidden beneath the surface. For our next session, the Benin SOLIDWORKS User Group (BSWUG) is diving deep into the technical nuances that separate a standard model from a production-ready masterpiece.

We are proud to host James Letson, a Designer III at McWane Plant & Industrial and a SOLIDWORKS Champion. As a Certified SOLIDWORKS Expert (CSWE), James brings years of hands-on manufacturing experience to the table. He won’t just show you how to use the tools; he’ll show you how to leverage them for maximum accuracy, manufacturability, and cost-effectiveness.

What You Will Learn:

- Hidden Gems: Explore lesser-known features within the Sheet Metal environment that can save hours of rework.

-Creative Problem Solving: Discover "surprising" applications for sheet metal tools that go beyond typical industry boundaries.

The Pro Workflow: How to optimize your designs to ensure they move from the screen to the shop floor without errors.

-A Session: A live opportunity to ask James about your specific design hurdles and manufacturing challenges.
