Fillet corners in sheet metal issue

bryan_lagrange

I am working with the sheet metal module and I came across one issue. The fillet command won't let me radius the corners on my sheet metal model. If I hit the finish sheet metal command then Onshape allows me to radius the corners but this does not propagate to the flat pattern. Am I doing something wrong here to enable fillet in the sheet metal work flow?

Thank you

Hi Bryan,

Fillet is not currently available in active sheet metal models; we are working to enable this functionality in an upcoming release.

Same problem, some advice about this issue currently?

@Andrés_Obregón this capability was added shortly after this forum post - what are you struggling with?

it´s very simple, I want to replay the fillet in in the corner of the part, but in onshape i need first finish the sheet metal part and then i can make fillet, this does not propagate to the flat pattern

Let me know if this helps.

Helps a lot!  thank you @bryan_lagrange, but I think this should be an easier way to implement this

Sheet metal is still in the early stages for Onshape but it is slowly getting there. Make an improvement request to add your item to the list.

The fillet the way you want to create it makes the flat pattern unfoldable (in real life) so Bryan’s method is correct.

So what about this situation where I want to add a fillet to a corner radius.

I was able to do something like this shown below. Not sure if this is what you are looking for.

if any Onshape developer sees this. I would like to be able to fillet the generated corner radius with the fillet tool same as solidworks
