Title of the Project : CASING DESIGN USING NX2027

2. OBJECTIVE : TO CREATE CASING, BY USING NX 2027 USING SHEET METAL APPLICATION AND DRAFTING ITS FLAT PATTERN.

3. Introduction : SHEET METAL DESIGN, it is a very big industry, in each and every component , vehicle, utensile, cars, buses, mahcines, sheet metal part is used. sheet metal we count thickness fromn 0.5mm to 6mm. in fabrication we use sheet metal part, and we bend it using press brake.

we have already blank size, ( flat pattern before bending) then we bend it. the bending radius that also punch radius should be more than or equal to its thickness.

3. Methodology :

BASE FLANGE -> NORMAL CUTOUT -> BENDING -> EDGE FLANGE -> UNBENDING -> CREATE SKETCH FOR HOLE--> HOLE FEATURE--> CREATE SKETCH FOR DIMPLE -> CREATE DIMPLE--> CREATE BEAD USING CIRCLE - .> REBEND-->

FLAT PATTERN--> DRAFTING--> MODEL VIEW---> FLAT VIEW

4. DESCRIPTION :

FIRSTLY CREAT E YOUR BASE SKETCH:

AFTER THIS, USING TAB COMMAND, CREATE YOU TAB WITH THICKNESS 1MM, ;

NOW CREATE YOU CUTTING SKETCH FOR CUT OUT:

USING NORMAL CUTOUT CREATE YOU CUT:

CRATEING SKETCH FOR BENDING LINE:

USING BEND, CREATE FLANGE OF 90 DEGREE ANGLE :

USING FLANGE CREATE FLANGE OF 5 MM :

CREATE FLANGE OTHER SIDE OF 5MM:

USING BREAK CORNER, GIVE FILLET ON EACH SHARP CORNER:

USING UNBEND COMMAND , UNBEND WHOLE PART, BASE SURFACE SHOULD SELECTED FIRST THEN SELECT BENDING FLANGES:

CREATE POINT IN THE SKETCH FOR LOCATING HOLE ORIGIN:

NOW USING, HOLE FEASTURE COMMAND , USE DIA METER 2 AND SELECT ALL POINT

CREATING SKETCH ON BASE FACE, AS SHOWN:

NOW USING DIMPLE COMMAND CREATE DIMPLE, USING DIE RADIUS OF 1 MM:

CREATE SKETCH FOR DIMPLE:

NOW CREATE, BEAD USING CIRCLE , SELECT ALL OF THEM TOGETHER : USE 1MM RADIUS:

USING REBEND COMMAND, SELECT ALL THE BENDS, AND BEND THE PARTS TO IT ORGINAL POISITION:

USING FLAT PATTERN COMMAND, NOW WE WILL CREATE FLATTEN OF PART,

SELECT BASE FACE AND CLICK OK:

NOW GO TO DRAFTING APPLICATION (CNTL+SHIFT+D) , USE A4 SIZE TEMPLET NOW, CLICK ON BASE VIEW, CLICK ON MODEL VIEW AND SLECT FLAT PATTERN YOU HAVE CREATED, AND CLICK OKAY,:
