Explore core sheet-metal features that enable intelligent, manufacturable designs in BricsCAD Mechanical. The lesson introduces flanges, bends, junctions, lofted bends, reliefs, form features, and beads, and explains how these elements preserve design intent while maintaining critical geometric relationships. Demonstrations cover creation of base and edge flanges with SMFLANGE and SMFLANGEEDGE, generation of sheet-metal parts using SMEXTRUDE and SMLOFT, and conversion of solid geometry to sheet-metal representations. Practical examples illustrate feature-driven workflows, automated reliefs and corner treatment, and techniques for producing accurate, fabrication-ready models that streamline downstream manufacturing and documentation. Inspection and unfolding tools are also demonstrated for verification and export.
