Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_1_Casing Design
Design of casing using NX CAD
Objective: To design a sheet metal casing using NX CAD
Design methodology:
| 1 | Creating a sheet metal tab |
| 2 | Making ncessary cut-outs |
| 3 | Providing flanges |
| 4 | Un - bending the sheet metal |
| 5 | Creating necessary sketches for beads and dimple. |
| 6 | Creation of beads and dimple |
| 7 | Creating a flat pattern view of the casing |
| 8 | Drafting |
Description of features used
- Tab - It is used to create a sheet metal by providing thickness.
- Cut - out - It is used to remove material from sheet- metal.
- Bending - It is used to bend the sheet metal as per requirement.
- Flanges - It is used to create flanges on the edges of the sheet-metal.
- Bend - It is used to provide round edges or corners.
- Unbend - It is used to unbend the sheet metal.
- Hole - It is used to create a hole on the sheet - metal.
- Dimple- It isused to create a projection on the sheet -metal.
- Bead - It is used to create a projection on the sheet-metal.
- Flat - pattern - It used to create a flattened view of the sheet metal showing details of various operations performed on the component.
