Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_7_ Metal bracket-II
TITLE: Advance Sheet Metal using NX CAD Challenge 7 metal bracket II.
OBJECTIVE: To design a metal bracket II using Seimens 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 efficiency 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:
DESCRIPTION:
SKECTH: It is a basic of any design.
TAB: It is used to create a extended part of a sheet metal.
FLANGE: It is used to create a extended part of a sheet metal.
UNBEND: This feature is used to unbent the sheet metal taking any one face as a stationary face.
REBEND: Used to rebend the sheet metal.
ADVANCE FLANGE: It is used to give flange to the curved edges.
GUSSET: It is a kind a of emboss given to a sheet metal to increase its strength.
