Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_5_Odd Shaped Enclosure

Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad (Odd Shaped Enclosure)

OBJECTIVE:

To design a casting using NX sheetmetal application. and to familiar about the useage of tools while designing a casting.

INTODUCTION:

In this project we are designing a sheetmetal casing with NX CAD on sheetmetal workbech. NX is a advance CAD, CAM, CAE software. It is a PLM (Product lifecycle Management )
software having next generation designing tools and technology.

DESIGN METHODOLOGY:

DESCRIPTION:

SKETCH:-
The Sketch is a 2D-dimensional representation of the model with the respect to plane/view.

EXTRUDE:-
It is a feature to create a solid body using a sketch.

SHEET METAL FROM SOLID:-
Use sheet metal from solid command to rip the edges of solid and make a sheet form.

FLANGES:-
This is a feature is used to create a flange from the stationary part by selecting a user defined edge.

JOG:-
Lifts one side of the sheet metal part through a defined line. Ads flange between the stationary side and the lifted side.

UNBEND:-
This is a feature use to flatten the bend & flanges in a sheetmetal part.

BEAD:-
This feature is also used to drop or lift the material along a counter of sketch that simulates staming a tool.

HOLE:-
This feature is use to create a hole to any part with preffered type and specification of holes.

REBEND:-
This feature is used to restore a flatten sheetmetal part.

Flat pattern:-
It creates the flat pattern of the sheet metal in a separate sheet for its dimensions and details of the model.

DRAFTING:-
Is is the creation of drawing for the purpose of determining what are the dimensions of a part.
