Sheet Metal

z See Sheet Metal WEB Page for standards on dimensioning and views.
z All dimensions should show to 3 decimal places. Tolerances will be in the Note.
z Standard views and proper hidden line removal are generated by the sheet metal
templates. The views may be adjusted to achieve views needed to dimension the
model clearly.
z If a different view configuration is needed, follow the following steps:
z Create a drawing using the Empty with format selection.
z Attach views needed to dimension the model clearly.
z Set standard view display to:
Views-Disp Mode-View Display-Hidden Line-No Disp Tan.
z Set the Isometric View to:
Views-Disp Mode-View Display-No Hidden Line-Tan Dimmed.
z Use DETAIL-Create-STD NOTE-Note Dir-Sheet Metal to place the correct
note. Use Modify-Text-Full Note to edit note.
z Where tolerances are non-standard use DETAIL-Modify-Dimension to change or
add the tolerances.
z When submitting the part, before release of the part, it must be at revision level 0
(zero).
z Place AUTO_Balloon_ref BOM.
z Place AUTO BALLOONS.
z Prepare a drawing for release

Weldments

The difference between the Weldment drawing and the Sheet Metal drawing is the model
file contains the Weldment and the main sheet metal part. The bill of material will
include the raw material for the sheet metal part along with any fasteners, etc., it will also
include any weldment pieces and the finish.

z Use either the English or metric sheetmetal drawing templates to generate the
drawing.
z The isometric view and standard views will be placed. Delete any views not
needed. If the weldment is simple the isometric view may be the only view
necessary on the first sheet.

z If clarification is needed, show other views of the weldment. Use Switch sheet to
move the other views to the next sheets as required.
z The main sheet metal part should be shown on the next sheet after the Weldment.
For a simple weldment, they may both be on sheet 1.
z To show the main sheet metal part only, set the view display to:
Views-Disp Mode-Member Display-Blank then select the weldment parts.
z If clarification of a sheet metal part is needed, an isometric view may be shown. It
should be on the same drawing sheet as the other views of the part itself.

z If views are placed manually, set standard view display to:

Views-Disp Mode-View Display-Hidden Line-No Disp Tan.
z Set the Isometric View display to:
Views-Disp Mode-View Display-No Hidden Line-Tan Dimmed.

z Place any Weld Symbols

z Place Auto_Balloon_ref Bom
z Place Auto Balloons
z Prepare drawing for release

Weldment Family

When the sheet metal part that has the same name as the weldment can be used in a
different weldment, A family table should be created in the assembly file. The new
weldment will be a different suffix from the original and its instance will be called out in
the drawing.
