Outspread Sheet Metal Algorithm of Oblique Square Dome Pipe Considering Thickness

Abstract:

In order to resolve inaccuracy and low efficiency problem for sheet metal outspread, a new sheet metal outspread method is proposed for oblique square dome shaped pipe. Three dimensional model oblique square dome pipe sheets is firstly constructed and unfolding function is realized in VC++ 6.0. In addition, thickness disposal and unfolding mathematic model are also discussed. Lastly, oblique square dome shaped pipe unfolding method is introduced in detail by taking for an instance, and it shows that the auto unfolding method was effective on sheet metal of oblique square dome shaped pipe unfolding.
