Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_5_Odd Shaped Enclosure

PROJECT TITTLE

DESIGN OF SHEET METAL ENCLOSER

OBJECTIVE

INTRODUCTION

here we are going to create an odd shaped encloser in sheet metal. these kind of encloser are very useful for machine protection. it protect machine like motor and so on from water, unfortunate impacts and most importantly it is used for safety purposes. safety purposes like heat, exploading and so on.
while creating an encloser we have to be aware of choosing a material. there are some factor that we shold considered before we select those are applications,corrorsion resistance,strength weight,cost,and etc.

DESIGN METHODOLOGY

while design of an encloseer we have to assuming some parameters so our product will perform well in manufacturing place

which are given below

use bead to strenthen our product.

PROCESS FLOW CHART

this is the process flow diagram of encloser.

PART DESCRIPTION

EXTRUDE

create an extrude for creating a solid body. this solid body can be created by sketching on the plane.

SHEET METAL FROM SOLID BODY

by using SM from SB what it will do it is converting a sheet metal from solid body for that we have to select the intended faces,edges and give a thickness values. then press apply to convert.

FLANGE

JOG

on the other side apply a jog. what a jog do it is lifting a material as shown in fig. the profile was created by the sketch on the lifting faces.

UNBEND

do a unbend it will unbend our sheet metal as shown in figure . unbend command used to add some extra features on the sheet metal and also it is ensuring that we are working on the sheet metal design.
