2022年4月21日 · A sheet metal gusset is an indented feature that forms a gusset to stiffen a bend in sheet metal part. Rather than using a custom-made forming tool, SOLIDWORKS includes a Sheet Metal Gusset tool. In this tutorial, we'll take a look at how to create a gusset in a sheet metal part using the Sheet Metal Gusset tool.

Sheet metal gussets are formed with special tooling which has a ridge going across the v opening. The punch is split to the left and right of the ridge as to not be damaged while forming. The sheet metal is bent normally across the v opening except in the area where the ridge is.

You can create sheet metal gussets with specific indents that go across bends. To add sheet metal gussets: Click Sheet Metal Gusset (Sheet Metal toolbar) or Insert > Sheet Metal > Sheet Metal Gusset .

Gusset and rib combinations require high-cost tooling, secondary trimming and progressive forming.

Use the Sheet Metal Gusset PropertyManager to create sheet metal gussets with specific indents across bends. To open the Sheet Metal Gusset PropertyManager, click Sheet Metal Gusset (Sheet Metal toolbar) or Insert > Sheet Metal > Sheet Metal Gusset.

Gussets. Gussets are used to strengthen a flange without the need for secondary processes such as welding. While gussets will almost always require custom tooling some basic guidlines should help. Be sure to consult with your factory’s Brake Press department to learn what they are equipped to bend.
