HDEAR Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 (edited) Hi all, Here's how I manually adjust bend reliefs when I want to change a specific gap on an existing sheet metal bend. In this exercise material thickness is 2mm with inside bend radius of 2.95. I want to close the gap of the bend up on the corner to 0.25mm. I already know that with the bend radius being 2.95mm, to make the gap I want I need to have the closed corner set 'Bottom' at 2.7mm. I then adjust the bend length snapping to the corner point and it's done. You note I measured first, I do this just as a pre-caution as that checks the bend radius as well. I could use the new property browser that gives you this but sometimes it's just nice to check. There may be other ways to do this, but I find this convenient and I don't have to fluff about working out which round and which triangular ( red or green ) handles I should push or pull.
