Title of the project:- Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_6_Bracket

Objective: To design a Bracket using Siemens NX Sheet metal application.
Introduction:-
1. SIEMENS NX:- NX formerly known as "unigraphics", is an advanced high-end CAD/CAM/CAE, which has been
owned since 2007 by Siemens PLM Software.
2. SHEET METAL DESIGN:- NX 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 material properties and
manufacturing processes. NX Sheet Metal Design tools incorporate material and bending information, enabling
the model to represent both the formed component and flattened blank shapes.
DESIGN METHODOLOGY:
  • Open new sheet metal part in NX cad
  • Create contour flange using sketch with given parameters
  • Cut the body using normal using given dimensions
  • Give some break corners with required dimensions
  • Unbend the model and create bead with using line sketch
  • Create some holes as per requirements
  • Rebend the model
  • If required create the drawing sheet using draft tool for understanding to customer
  • Hence the model is ready

Description :

Create the base sketch from reference to the given bracket sketch. Create the sketch profile as shown in the below picture

By using contour flange, create the base to a length of 200 mm

Create a sketch on top plane as shown in figure

Create the normal cut out from the drawn profile

Smoothen the sharp corners using break corner option with a radius values of 25 mm

Break corner using radius 30 mm

Break corner using 60 mm radius

Unbend:

Create sketch for bead

Create bead form the profile created

Rebend the bracket

Create a points on top view to locate the holes
