Corner undercut – if you don't have to, then do it in 2D

You can make undercuts in the corners of sheet metal sheets in two ways. you can tell, that everyone uses options, which suits him.

However, there is one more aspect – performance!

Today, using the example of a relatively simple sheet of metal, I compared two operations operating on a unfolded sheet and on a bent sheet.

If you don't need to make the undercut visible in three dimensions – give it up!

Of course it looks nice, There are more undercut types and the program supports triple corners. But despite everything the file becomes almost about 1/4 greater, and the reconstruction time increases almost twice (in my example).
