Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_6_Bracket

OBJECTIVE 

Create sheet metal bracket using NX CAD

DESIGN METHODOLOGY

1. Use contour flange and sketch in XZ plane.
2. Create Sketch in XY palne which will be master sketch.
3. Do normal cut out and use master sketch for trim.
4. Do break cornor and also apply un bend operation.
5. Apply bead and do re-bend
6. Add some holes.

DESCRIPTION 

• SKETCH: It’s a basic drawing in which any kind of operation can be performed, with reference to it.
• CONTOUR FLANGE: It is used to extruded perpendicular to the sketch, define a thickness in the thickness tab.
• UNBEND: It’s a command which is used to unbend the sheet metal with respect to a stationary face.
• REBEND: It's used to bring back the old bends which were bent before.
• BEADS: Used for giving more strength for the sheet metal.
• HOLE: Hole command is used to provide mounting holes for the bracket
• BREAK CORNER: It's used to change sharp edges into smooth edges.

Conclusion

 The structure of metal bracket is obtained using basic feature of NX sheet metal application.
