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

TITLE: - NX_BRACKET-2_BEREKAR_MAHENDRA

OBJECTIVE: -

THIS BRACKET-2 EXERCISE IS GOOD FOR UNDERSTANDING THE NX SOFTWARE FEATURE VERY BRIFLY LIKE GUSSET, COUNTER FLANGE, HOLE, NORMAL CUTOUT, ETC.

INTRODUCTION: -

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

DESGIN METHODOLOGY: -

1. FIRST, I CREATED A BASE SKETCH OF THE BRACKET ON SIDE PLANE.
2. THEN I CREATED A SECOND SKTCH ON FRONT PLANE AND USING COUNTER FLANGE FEATURE I CREATED A BASE SHEET METAL.
3. IN NEXT STEP USING NORMAL CUTOUT FEATURE, I CUT THE SHEET METAL IN BASE SKETCH MANNER.
4. THEN USING BREAK OUT FEATURE I GIVEN A FILLET TO THE SHARP CORNERS.
5. THEN USING UNBEND FEATURE FLATTEN A SHEET.
6. THEN I MAKE SOME HOLES ON THE SHEET USING HOLE FEATURE.
7. THEN USING REBENF FEATURE I GAVE ORIGINAL SHAPE TO SHEET METAL.
8. THEN USING ADVANCE FLANGE FEATURE I CREATED A FLANGE ON TOP MOST EDGE.
9. AGAIN I USED A UNBEND FEATURE TO FLATTEN A SHEET.
10. NOW ON BOTTOM SIDE I CREATED A TWO HOLES USING HOLE FEATURE.
11. THEN I CREATED A SHAPE ON A PLANE AND USING NORMAL CUTOUT FEATURE I CUT THE SHEET ACORDING TO SHAPE.
12. NOW, USING NORMAL CUTOUT FEATURE I CUT SOME EXTRA MATERIAL FRO THE SHEET METAL.
13. THEN USING ADVANCE FLANGE FEATURE I CREATED A FLANGE ON EDGE OF THE CUT SECTION.
14. THEN AGAIN USING REBEND FEATURE I GAVE ORIGINAL SHAPE TO THE SHEET METAL.
15. NOW, USING GIVEN DIMENSION AND GUSSET FEATURE I CREATED SOME GUSSET ON THE SHEET METAL AT BEND FACES.
16. THIS IS HOW WE CAN CREATE A BRACKET-2 FROM THE SKETCH AND DRAFT IT ON SHEET.
17. 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.
18. NOW, I GO TO DRAFTING WORK BENCH AND USING BASE VIEW FEATURE I CREATED A BASE VIEW, SIDE VIEWAND ALSO FLAT PATTERN VIEW OF SHEET METAL.

DISCREPTION: -

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. BREAKE CORNER – THIS FEATURE IS FOR GIVING A FILLET TO THE SHARP CORNERS OR TO BREAK SHARP CORNERS.
4. ADVANCE FLANGE – THIS FEATURE IS USE TO CREATE A FLANGE TO THE CURVE EDGE, WHICH IS COMPLEX FOR THE NORMAL FLANGE FEATURE.
5. HOLE – THIS FEATURE IS USE TO CREATE A HOLE ON THE RESTPECTED POINT. THE DIMENSION IS WE CAN GIVE AS WE WANT.
6. GUSSET: - THIS FEATURE IS USE TO CRAETE A RIBS ON THE SHEET METAL AT BEND AREAS.
7. 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.
8. REBEND - THIS FETURE IS USE TO REBEND THE SHEET MEATAL TO ITS ORIGINAL SHAPE.
9. FLAT PATTERN - THIS FEATURE IS TO USE A FLAT SOLID OR FLAT VIEW OF THE SHEET METAL.
10. 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.
