For sandwich assemblies we would like to bend the whole assembly to get the correct flat pattern for all the parts. Is that somehow possible?
The assembly itself is made out of a frame of tubes, some galvanized sheet metal pieces in between, styrofoam in between the frame & wooden pieces that cover the whole frame. Is a multibody part the only viable option here? Or is there another way?
The frame out of tubing was originally designed as a weldment, but we are willing to take a new route here too.
Maybe a skeleton part, that defines the bending is the solution?
Edit for clarity:
Here the swamp link.
I colored them to distinguish them better:
- Inside (i.e. wood) Layer 1 blue
- steel plates Layer 2 green
- frame/ styrofoam/ other insides Layer 3 frame: grey, styro: red
- steel plates Layer 4 green
- Outside (i.e. FRP) Layer 5 yellow
