Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_1_Casing Design

project Tittle:-Casing Design using Nx_cad Sheet Metal Design

submmited To:- Skill-Lync

Submitted by:- Jaageeri varun raju

software used:-NX-cad

objective:-I have to create a casing using the sheetmetal application in NX_CAD and The Objective is to Explore the sheetmetal features in NX_CAD

Introduction:- In this project i was created a simple casing design using sheet metal applacation of nx_cad and my approch is general sheet metal workflow.

Design Methodology:-As i said here I follows traditional sheet_metal methodology.

sketch profile

base feature

add secondary features

unbend

add features

rebend

flat pattern

Features/Tools used:-

• Tab :-Used to create a base material in the shape sketch profile.
• Flange :-Used to create the material from the edges of the base tab to lateral sides by bending at an desired angle.
• Normal CutOut :-to remove the material by creating a sketch profile on the desired face of base or secondary feartures.
• Beads :-Lifts the material along the countour of a sketch that stimulates a stamping tool
• dimple :-Lifts an area of the model inside the material that stimulates a stamping tool
• unbend :-makes flat pattern of the sheetmetal design by selecting the standard features.
• rebend :-returns the model to its original shape.
• FlatPattern :-Creates a flat pattern by selecting the standard face and makes a flat_pattren view in model views
• Drafting :-used to create the @D sketch of the final flat_pattern to send manufactures.

Step 1:-Create base sketch and base feature

Step 2:-Create Normal cut and Create flanges at the both edges.

Step 3:-create the flanges at the edges to inside

Step 4:-create the flanges the edges to outside

step 5:-corner treatment using bend corner

Step 6:-create holes

step 7:-Create the beads and the dimple
