Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_5_Odd Shaped Enclosure

Design a sheet metal part of odd shapes

Objective : In this challange going to learn the recommended workflow procedure to design a sheet metal part for odd shapes using NX sheet metal application.

Introduction: It's a very useful tool for making a drawing on NX siemens software .i am going to learn this feature with making some kind of drawing.solid body to sheet metal body conversion is very useful for industry .

Design Methodology:

Description:

Skatch one rectangular body with the angle of 60 degree. Length 200mm width 100 mm

Extrude :Craete a feature by extruding a section along a vector.

Used Sheet Metal from solid Feature .

Add feature :

• Features such as Flange ,Jogs or Bends to further define the basis shape of the formed sheet metal part

Flange : Length:20mm ,Angle :90degree

Jogs: Height:20mm

Unbend:

Unbend the Bends area where needed and place holes , Beads feature on the part

Five Number general Hole added with diameter 10mm.

Rebend :

• Rebend the flattened bend areas to Complete the parts
• 

Flat Pattern:

Create a flat pattern of the part for drafting and later manufacturing.
