Right Cylinder
Right cylinders are ones of basic elements of sheet metal working. They are used to manufacture pharmaceutical, food tanks, or parts of equipment such as, i.e. heat exchangers.
Enter your dimensions, indicate whether if you work usign inside or outside dimensions.
Then, you can choose to make it between 1 and 6 parts and indicate the welding gap that will be subtracted from the flattening layout.
MetalFox generates the flattening layout of all your straight cylinders free of charge, computes their weight according to the material and the lengths of the welds.

Right Cylinder, Top truncated
Cylinders cut by a plane are often used for air evacuation. The its closing plate is an ellipse.
Enter your dimensions and indicate whether they are internal or external.
Change dimension button changes the position of the dimensions.
i.e. if you do not know the angle value but the lenght, click on this button to enter the lenght.
You can choose to manufacture this part in 1 to 6 sub-parts.
The welding gap will be automatically subtracted from the flattening layout.

Right Cylinder, Top and Base truncated
Enter your dimensions and indicate whether they are internal or external.
Enter the value of bottom and top angles.
You can choose to manufacture this part in 1 to 6 sub-parts.
The welding gap will be automatically subtracted from the flattening layout.
You can also choose the orientation of the welds, so that there are no weld nodes if you have to join several parts.
