Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_6_Bracket

TITLE OF THE PROJECT:

Bracket using NX CAD

OBJECTIVE:

To create a bracket using sheet metal tool in Siemens NX.

INTRODUCTION :

NX Sheet Metal provides a set of tools within the NX design environment that allows for simple and fast design of sheet metal parts, dependent on their material and manufacturing process.

Using NX Sheet Metal, parts can be created by using industry best practices and uniform workflows. Standard bending calculations, sheet metal features and advanced analysis tools all contribute to improving quality and reducing the cost of sheet metal parts. In addition, an accurate sheet metal pattern resulting from the design is correctly passed on to manufacturing and suppliers.

DESIGN METHODOLOGY :

DESCRIPTION:

COUNTER FLANGE:

Creates a base feature by extruding a sketch along a vector.

NORMAL CUTOUTS:

Cuts material by projecting a sketch onto the model and then cutting perpendicular to the faces intersected by the projection.

BREAK CORNER:

Rounds a sharp corner of a tab or flange.

UNBEND:

Flattens a bend and material adjacent to them.

BEAD:

Lift the material along the contour of a sketch that simulates stamping tool.

REBEND:

Restores unbend feature to its previous bent state.

HOLE:

Adds a hole to one or more solid parts in part or assembly with various options.
