sheet metal hopper
 
Hello,

Can somebody give me some help/tips with creating a hopper out of sheet metal?
This hopper has to be circular on the bottom and rectangular on top. (Loft?)
And it has to be created with bends, not rolled. Is this possible?

Many thanks,

Herman
 
Sure Herman,

Please send some rough dimensions and I will try to make a video for you.

Hi Marius,

sheet 2mm
hopper inlet (top) +/-  1000*1000mm
hopper outlet diameter +/- 300mm
height +/- 600mm

Hello Herman:

You can find the video at: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5GsEj_MY2oItEt0DrjhzHtPGAJckMROE

It is important that your lower and upper profile have an equal number of edges so that you can match them properly in the loft.

I hope this is about what you meant.
