Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_5_Odd Shaped Enclosure
1.Advanced Sheet Metal Odd Shaped Enclosure-SUSAN
2.OBJECTIVE: The main objective is to create sheet metal using SIMENS NXSheet metal application
3.INTRODUCTION: NX CAD is one of the modelling software .it was mainly used in design of sheet metal parts used in machinery,automotive,aerospace etc
4.DESIGN METHOD:

4.DESIGN METHOD:
Description
TAB: create a base feature by extruding a sketch along the vector by a thickness value
BEND: create a bend to sheet metal at angle to form desired shape
FLANGE: adds a flat flange at an angle to a planar face and add bend between the two
HOLES: add a hole to the body
BEADS: lifts the material along the contour of the sketch
DIMPLE: lifts the area of the model inside the sketch
Sheet metal from solid:builds a sheet metal model that takes its shape from a collection of planar surfaces
Extrude: create a feauture by extruding the section along the vector
Flat pattern: create a flat pattern from a formed sheet metal part
