Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_7_ Metal bracket-II

Metal Bracket -2D Drawing

Objective: In this challange going to learn the step by step procedure to create Metal Bracket from the given 2d Drawing.

Introduction: It's a very useful tool for making a drawing on NX siemens software .i am going to learn the step by step procedure to create Metal bracket for the given 2d Drawing.This type of product heavly use in the industry also.

Design methodology :

Description :

Skatch line length of 164mm on XZ Plane.

Contour Flange :

Creates a base feature by extruding a skatch along a vector or adds material by sweeping a skatch along an edge or chain of edges.

Contour Flange thickness 3mm Width 158mm.

Normal Cutout:

Cuts material by projecting a skatch onto the model and then cutting perpendicular to the faces intersected by the projection.

Depth taken as 120mm.

Depth taken as 49mm.

Break corner:

Rounds or chamfer a sharp corner of a tab or flanges.

Break corner taken as 4.5mm

Again used normal cutout ,depth taken as 120mm.

Used normal cutout to making circle cutout on the skatch depth taken as 60mm.

Unbend: Used unbend feature for making beads and hole on the skatch .

Skatch one circle with 12.5mm diameter on YZ plan and used normal cutout .

Rebend : Rebend done taking this skatch into original shape & used break corner 12mm.

Again used Break corner with 5mm Radius and 10mm Radius.

Advanced Flange :

Adds a flange a along an edge using a bend angle or a referance face. The edge and referance face can be curved.

Again unbend did and make hole on the skatch .

Normal cutout used as a 5mm & 120mm depth.

Used advanced flange with length 5mm and bend radius 3mm then used rebend feature .

Gusset:

Creates a stiffening guesst on the part .

Round guesst created on the skatch with 5mm depth & die radius 2.5mm.

Again Round gusset used as 5mm depth and 2 die radius.
