Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_2_Box Assembly

Tittle of the project

Design of Box assembly using NX CAD software (Challenge 2)

Objective

Objective here is to learn how to model the real-life by uing an example of box modelling using NX CAD sheet metal module.

Introduction

Siemens Nx which was formerly known as Unigraphics, is a user-friendly design software. Which is basically used for advanced CAD/CAM/CAE.

The command tab is a basic command of the any sheet metal module software.

Part navigator

Description

Sketch – it is 2 – D design feature, it a basic command to design anything.

Tab – is the basic command used in any sheet metal module. Its function is to convert closed sketch into tab of given thickness.

Flange – this is a command used for the extension of tab from any edge to angle but with same thickness.

Hem flange – is used to create flange of different type like closed, curl, open, S- type etc.

Closed corner – it is used the close the corner where different flanges are meeting.

Mirror – it is the command used to copy the feature which is similar on the both the sides of the line or datum.

Normal cutout – any sketch drawn on the surface of the sheet metal can be cut using this command.

Unbend – unbend is the command to create a flat pattern.

Re bend – use to re bend the complete sheet metal.

Bead – it is used to provide support and strength to sheet metal.
