Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_6_Bracket

BRACKET

OBJECTIVE:

  • To observe the model and design the sheet metal by using given dimensions and instructions

INTRODUCTION:

  • NX is widely used Computer Aided Designing software for multi purposes like designing, engineering and manufacturing.
  • It is used in various fields for different works. Using different features and methods we have designed here.

DESIGN METHODOLOGY:

DESCRIPTIONS:

Sketching

  • Making a 2d drawing such as curves, arcs, circles, points, rectangles and many options to create a drawing or to create features for upcoming designing.

Counter flange

  • It is created by extending the sketch on its respective axis with thickness as required from the base.

Normal cutout

  • It is used to create a cut portion or a gap on the sketch where there is a requirement.

Break corner

  • This feature is for making the corner blend with some self dimensioned radius in order to make the corner smooth.

Unbend

  • It is to flatten the bend sheet metal to form a flat sheet.
  • It helps in making extra features like bead, normal cutout on the sheet metal after bending.

Bead

  • This is to create a contour shaped accordingly to their sketch in the required direction with required punch/die radius,

Rebend

  • It is to make flat surface that is bend previously to do some extra features like holes,bead back to its original form.

Hole

  • It is to create a hole on sketch, or to create a counter bored, counter sink and several hole options to do.
