Describe your issue
EDIT: this is a issue with the unfolder V2 only. I just find out that using the V1 by checking "Revert to old unfolder" produces the expected output.
Unfolding a circle cutout sketch does not produces a circle.
I made a circle sketch that I use with the SheetMetal SketchOnSheet command.
As I understand from the wiki, "this tool acts as if it would unfold the sheet metal object, cut the holes, and refold the object."
So, when cutting a circle, and then unfolding the object to export for manufacturing, I would expect the output to be a perfect circle again.
But this is not the case.
More precisely, the unfold output is correct:
- for the portion of the circle lying on the base face (before the bend).
- and for the portion lying on the leg (after the bend).
But is incorrect for the portion lying on the bend.
I made a very simple shape to reproduce this:
- "L" base shape,
- with a WrappedCutout (SheetMetal SketchOnSheet)
- the cutout sketch is a circle, spanning on the base face, the bend, and the leg face.
The file is attached:
metalcurve.FCStd.zip
On the picture below, it is clear that the unfold output in orange is not a circle. (look at the middle part on the left and on the right)
I have the intuition that the error occurs when an arc from a sketch is projected during the fold/unfold on the cylindrical shape that will form the bended edge
