Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_1_Casing Design
NX Cad Challenge 1 Casing Design sanctions for advanced flat solid design. Objective: to style a flat solid casing design utilizing Siemens NX flat solid Application.
Introduction
- flat solid consists by an process into thin, flat pieces. it's one in all the basic forms utilized in metalworking and it is cut and bent into a range of shapes.
- Nx: it's formerly kenned as "Unigraphics" and is a complicated high-end CAD/CAM/CAE system that's owned by Siemens PLM Software. Most of it's utilized for design, engineering analysis, and manufacturing. Design methodology: Design methodology is explicated by the subsequent flow chart.
Description
Step1: An adumbration was engendered within the XY plane (P). A rectangle was of the dimension of 60 x 50 mm and so, utilizing the TAB button, an oblong metal sheet of 1 mm thickness was engendered.
Step 2: At the left fringe of the oblong sheet, an oblong sketch with dimensions of 5X40 mm was engendered, which component was abstracted utilizing the feature Mundane Cutout.
Step3: In-plane P, a horizontal line was drawn at a distance of 10 mm from the upper left corner of the metal sheet. By utilizing the bend feature, the metal sheet was bent at an angle of 90 degrees. and therefore the same process was reiterated for a line drawn at a distance of 10 mm from the lower-left cessation of the sheet.
Step 4: Flanges of length 5 mm were integrated the least bit joint portions of bent flat solid by utilizing the feature flange and making the fillet of radius the flange comer edges of radius 1 mm utilizing the feature Break corner.
Step 5: the specified portions were unbent for integrating some punch features by utilizing the feature called "Unbend." by culling the more sizably voluminous horizontal sheet because the stationary face.
Step 6: To integrate apertures to the sheet, four circles were drawn that were symmetric about the inchoation, then apertures were engendered utilizing the feature aperture of clearance aperture with M2 screw size and an H13 fit.
Step 7: within the P plane, i.e., the XY plane requires an adumbration, where each half side is 5mm long, centered at (0,0,0), and by utilizing the studio's line, the desired culminated sketch is drawn at an angle of 45 degrees. For the drawn sketch, a dimple was engendered by utilizing the feature dumple of the depth of 1 mm.
Step 8: In-Plane P, a circle of diameter 5mm was drawn and, by utilizing the bead feature, the specified feature was engendered at a depth of 1mm.
Step 9: Utilizing the Mirror feature, engender other beads on all four corners together with the Dimple feature.
Step 10: The bent portions were ribbed utilizing the feature Rebend, and conclusively the desired casing was made.
