Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_6_Bracket
TITLE: Advanced sheet metal design using the NX CAD BRACKET.
OBJECTIVE:To design a bracket by using the sheet metal NX CAD application
INTRODUCTION:
- SIEMENS NX: NX formely known as "UNIGRAPHICS" is advanced high-end CAD/CAM/CAE, which has been owned since 2007 by Siemens PLM software.
- SHEET METAL DESIGN: NX sheet metal design provides the design professional with a complete set of tools to efficiently create and mange sheet metal parts based on the knowledge of material properties and manufacturing processes.
- NX sheet meta design tools incorporate material and bending information ,enabling the model to represent both formed componenent and flattened blank shapes.
DESIGN METHODOLOGY:


DESCRIPTION:
- SKETCH: It is basic of any design.
- TAB: It is used to create base feature of sheet metal.
- FLANGE: It is used to create a extened part of a sheet metal.
- UNBEND: This feature is used to UNBEND the sheet metal taking any one faace as stationary face.
- REBEND: It is used to REBEND the sheet metal.
- BEAD: It is used for giving strength to the sheet metal.
- LOCAL RADIUS ANALYSIS: To measure radii formed in the sheet metal.
