Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_7_ Metal bracket-II
⦁ OBJECTIVE- TO DESIGN METAL BRACKET-II USING ADVANCED SHEET METAL NX
INDRODUCTION:- .Sheet Metal Fabrication is the process of forming parts from a metal sheet by punching, cutting, stamping, and bending.
3D CAD files are converted into machine code, which controls a machine to precisely cut and form the sheets into the final part.
Sheet metal parts are known for their durability, which makes them great for end use applications (e.g. chassis). Parts used for low volume prototypes, and high volume production runs are most cost-effective due to large initial setup and material costs
DESIGN METHODOLOGY
Description
STEP 1: Created the sketch on plan.
STEP 2: Create Sketch on plan as for adjustment Contour flange like to be given image and Apply Contour flange .
STEP 3: Apply Normal Cutout step by step.
STEP 4: Apply break Corner o/p to given Edge.
STEP 5: Unbend sheet and created normal cutout there.
STEP 6: Re bend sheet and Apply Break Corner as for given step .
STEP 7: Unbend sheet and holes as refried position.
STEP 8: created one normal cutout as for given image.
STEP 9: Created Gusset as for given position
STEP 10: Created drafting view.
NOTE:- Advanced flange is not working
Contour flange :-In Siemens nx sheet metal contour flange command use to create a base feature by extruding a sketch along a vector, or adds material by sweeping a sketch along an edge or chain of edge.
Normal Cutout :-Normal Cutout command extract volumes from sheet metal by using sheet metal production principles. Cutting faces will be perpendicular to the sheet metal surface.
Break Corner :-Use to remove sharp corner.
Re bend :- Use re bend sheet .
Unbend :- Use Unbend sheet .
Holes:-Use for add holes in sheet metal.
Gusset :-Gussets could be placed on and bend face as long as it was linear.
