Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_5_Odd Shaped Enclosure

TITLE :- NX_ODD_ENCLOSURE_BEREKAR_MAHENDRA

OBJECTIVE: -

THIS ODD ENCLOSURE EXERCISE IS THE GOOD FOR UNDERSTANDING THE CONVERT TO SHEET METAL FEATURE.

INTRODUCTION: -

IN THIS EXERCISE, WE HAVE TO CONVERT SOLID BODY INTO A SHEET METAL. FOR THAT WE CAN USE CONVERT TO SHEET METAL FEATURE AND USING THIS FEATURE WE CAN WRAP THE SOLID BODY WITH SHEET METAL. AND THEN WE CAN CREATE A ADDITIONAL FEATURE LIKE JOGS, BENDS, BEADS, HOLES.

DESIGN METHODOLOGY: -

1. FIRST, I CREATED A DRAWING FOR THE SOLID BODY AND USING EXTRUDE FEATURE I CREATED A SOLID BODY.
2. THEN USING CONVERT TO SHEET METAL FEATURE I WRAP THE SOLID BODY WITH SHEET METAL. THIS FEATURE ALSO BREAK THE CORNERS AND CREATE APPROPRIATE CORNERS FOR THE SHEET METAL.
3. NOW USING FLANGE AND JOG FEATURE I CREATED A FLANGE AND JOGS ON THE SHEET METAL.
4. THEN I USED UNBEND FEATURE TO FLATTEN A SHEET METAL.
5. NOW I DRAWN TWO LINES ON TOP FACE OF THE SHEET METAL AND USIN BEAD FEATURE I CREATED A BEADON THAT FACE.
6. NOW I DRAWN SOME POINTS RANDOMLY AND USING HOLE FEATURE I CREATED A HOLES ON THE SHEET METAL.
7. NOW USING REBEND FEATURE CONVERTED A FLAT SHEET METAL TO ITS ORIGINAL FORM.
8. THEN USING FLAT PATTERN FEATURE I CREATED A FLAT PATTERN VIEW OF THAT SHEET METAL. WHICH CAN BE SEE IN PART NAVIGATOR IN VIEW SECTION.
9. NOW, I GO TO DRAFTING WORK BENCH AND USING BASE VIEW FEATURE I CREATED A BASE VIEW OF SHEET METAL AND THEN FLAT PATTERN VIEW.
10. THIS IS HOW WE CAN CREATE SHEET METAL FROM SOLID BODY AND DRAFT IT ON SHEET.

DISCRIPTION: -

1. EXTRUDE – USING THIS FEATURE WE CAN CREATE A SOLID BODY WITH EXTRUDING A SKETCH.
2. TAB – THIS FEATURE IS TO CREATE A BASE OF THE MODEL OR SHEET METAL.
3. FLANGE – FLANGE FEATURE IS TO CREATE A EXTRA MATERIAL ON THE EDGES WITH RESPECT TO ANGLE.
4. JOG – USING THIS FEATUER WE CAN CREATE A BEND ON SHEET METAL WITH BASE OF SKETCH OF LINE OR CURVE.
5. UNBEND - THIS FEATURE IS USED TO CREAET A FLAT SHEET FROM THE SHAPE OF THE SHEET METAL SO WE CAN CREATE A COMPLEX SHAPE ON THE SHEET. LIKE HOLES, DIMLES ETC.
6. HOLE - THIS FEATURE IS USE TO CREATE A HOLE ON THE RESTPECTED POINT. THE DIMENSION IS WE CAN GIVE AS WE WANT.
7. BEAD - THIS FEATURE IS TO CREATE A BEAD ON THE SHEET METAL AND THE PROFILE IS USER DEFINED. SOME VALUE WE CAN CHANGE LIKE DEPTH OR ETC.
8. REBEND - THIS FETURE IS USE TO REBEND THE SHEET MEATAL TO ITS ORIGINAL SHAPE.
9. FLAT PATTERN - THIS FEATURE IS TO USE A FLAT SOLID OR FLAT VIEW OF THE SHEET METAL.
10. BASE VIEW - THIS FEATURE IS USE TO CREATE A BASE VIEW OF THE SHEET METAL ON THE DRAWING SHEET. NOW ONLY BASE VIEW BUT ALSO CREATE A TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT, ISOMETRIC VIEW, OR FLAT PATTERN VIEW ALSO.

CONCLUSION: -

I LEARNED A LOT OF TOOLS, COMMANDS, AND FETURES WITH CREATING THIS EXERCISE AND THANK YOU FOR THIS EXERCISE.
