Sheet Metal Tabs

The depth of a tab feature is automatically set to the thickness of the sheet metal part. The direction of the depth automatically coincides with the sheet metal part to prevent a disjoint body.

Properties of tab sketches include:
  • The sketch can be a single closed, multiple closed, or multiple-enclosed profile. The illustration shows a single tab feature that adds two tabs to the sheet metal part.
  • The sketch must be on a plane or planar face that is perpendicular to the direction of thickness of the sheet metal part.
  • You can edit the sketch.
