Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_6_Bracket

TITLE: - NX_BRACKET_BEREKAR_MAHENDRA

OBJECTIVE: -

THIS BRACKET EXERCISE IS GOOD FOR UNDERSTANDING THE NX SOFTWARE FEATURE VERY BRIFLY LIKE BEAD, COUNTER FLANGE, HOLE ETC.

INTRODUCTION: -

IN THIS EXERCISE, WE HAVE TO CREATE A BRACKET FOR THAT WE CAN USE DIFFERENT FEATURES LIKE COUNTER FLANGE, BREAKE CORNER, BEAD, NORMAL CUTOUT, HOLE, UNBEND, REBEND.

DESIGN METHODOLOGY: -

1. FIRST, I CREATED A DRAWING FOR THE BRACKET AND THEN USING COUNTER FLANGE FEATURE I CREATE A SHEET METAL OF THE BRACKET.
2. THEN I CREATED A SKETCH FOR CUT A UNNECESSARY PART OF THE BRACKET AND USING NORMAL CUTOUT FEATURE I CUT THE UNNECESSARY PART.
3. NOW USING BREAKE CORNER FEATURE I GAVE A FILLET TO THE CORNERS OF THE BRACKET.
4. THEN I USED UNBEND FEATURE TO FLATTEN A SHEET METAL.
5. NOW I DRAW A LINE ON TOP FACE OF THE SHEET METAL AND USING BEAD FEATURE I CREATED A BEAD ON THAT FACE.
6. NOW I DRAWN SOME POINTS WITH GIVEN DIMENSION AND USING HOLE FEATURE I CREATED A HOLES ON THE SHEET METAL.
7. NOW USING REBEND FEATURE CONVERTED A FLAT SHEET METAL TO ITS ORIGINAL FORM.
8. THEN USING FLAT PATTERN FEATURE I CREATED A FLAT PATTERN VIEW OF THAT SHEET METAL. WHICH CAN BE SEE IN PART NAVIGATOR IN VIEW SECTION.
9. NOW, I GO TO DRAFTING WORK BENCH AND USING BASE VIEW FEATURE I CREATED A BASE VIEW OF SHEET METAL AND THEN FLAT PATTERN VIEW.
10. THIS IS HOW WE CAN CREATE A BRACKET FROM THE SKETCH AND DRAFT IT ON SHEET.

DISCRIPTION: -

1. COUNTER FLANGE – COUNTER FLANGE FEATURE IS TO CREATE SHEET WITH BEND USING A LINE OR CURVE ONLY
2. NORMAL CUTOUT – TO GIVE A REQUIRED CUT ON A TAB.
3. BREAK CORNER - THIS FEATURE IS FOR GIVING A FILLET TO THE SHARP CORNERS OR TO BREAK SHARP CORNERS.
4. UNBEND - THIS FEATURE IS USED TO CREAET A FLAT SHEET FROM THE SHAPE OF THE SHEET METAL SO WE CAN CREATE A COMPLEX SHAPE ON THE SHEET. LIKE HOLES, DIMLES ETC.
5. HOLE - THIS FEATURE IS USE TO CREATE A HOLE ON THE RESTPECTED POINT. THE DIMENSION IS WE CAN GIVE AS WE WANT.
6. BEAD - THIS FEATURE IS TO CREATE A BEAD ON THE SHEET METAL AND THE PROFILE IS USER DEFINED. SOME VALUE WE CAN CHANGE LIKE DEPTH OR ETC.
7. REBEND - THIS FETURE IS USE TO REBEND THE SHEET MEATAL TO ITS ORIGINAL SHAPE.
8. FLAT PATTERN - THIS FEATURE IS TO USE A FLAT SOLID OR FLAT VIEW OF THE SHEET METAL.
9. BASE VIEW - THIS FEATURE IS USE TO CREATE A BASE VIEW OF THE SHEET METAL ON THE DRAWING SHEET. NOW ONLY BASE VIEW BUT ALSO CREATE A TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT, ISOMETRIC VIEW, OR FLAT PATTERN VIEW ALSO.

CONCLUSION: -

I LEARNED A LOT OF TOOLS, COMMANDS, AND FETURES WITH CREATING THIS EXERCISE AND THANK YOU FOR THIS EXERCISE.
