What is a Channel-Shaped Part?

This kind of part is an extrusion that is not a closed tube shape. It looks like what you see in this image.

How To Find The Bend Data

Find the bend data for this kind of part by treating the path of one of corner radii as if it were a tube shape. If you zoom in on this part's edge, you will find two radii. Choose one of them using the standard collection process for tube shapes.

Use the Default Collection Process for Straight Cylinders

Use the default straight cylinder collection process along the path of a corner radius like this.
