Convert imported or existing 3D solids into fully functional sheet metal parts with BricsCAD Mechanical’s dedicated sheet metal conversion and repair tools.

This lesson demonstrates how SMCONVERT automatically recognizes sheet metal features such as flanges, bends, lofted bends, ribs, form features, and holes, transforming conventional solid geometry into editable sheet metal models.

You will learn how to prepare converted parts for unfolding and export to manufacturing formats, as well as how to identify and resolve common issues in imported geometry.

The lesson covers the recommended repair workflow using DMAUDIT and SMREPAIR to correct modeling inaccuracies, restore valid sheet metal behavior, repair lofted bends, and replace incorrect bends.

By the end, you will understand how to validate, repair, and optimize converted sheet metal models for reliable downstream design and manufacturing processes.
