Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_6_Bracket

SHEET METAL DESIGN USING NX CAD (BRACKET)

OBJECTIVE: To design a bracket using NX CAD sheet metal application.

INTRODUCTION: Sheet metal Design provides the design professional with a complete set of tools to efficiently create and manage sheet metal parts based on the knowledge of materia properties and manufacturing processes. NX sheet metal design tools incorporate material and bending information,enabling the model to represent both the formed component and flattend blank shapes.

DESCRIPTION:

1. SKETCH - It is a basic of any design.
2. TAB - it is used to create base feature of a sheet metal.
3. Flange - it is used to create a extended part of a sheet metal.
4. UNBEND - This feature is used to unbend the sheet metal taking any one face as a stationary face.
5. REBEND - used to rebend the sheet metal.
6. BEAD - Used for giving strength to the sheet metal.
7. Local Radius analysis - To measure radii formed in sheet metal.

DESIGN METHODOLOGY:

VIEWS IN DIFFERENT ANGLES

CONCLUSION:

THE STRUCTURE OF THE BRACKET IS OBTAINED BY USING THE BASIC FEATURE OF NX SHEET METAL APPLICATION.
