Design library is a feature in SolidWorks where you can drag and drop your part, assemblies, forming tool in part as well as in assembly environment.

In this blog, we are going to learn how to create custom forming tool for a sheet metal component and how many times we can reuse the part present in design library in order to reduced time to redo it again.

  • Confirm the thickness of Forming Tool to Thickness of Part file.
