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

                                                   Metal Bracket Design

Objective 

Creating the sheet metal Metal Bracket Design  using Nx cad

Introduction 

Sheet metal operations are done to create the components which are used in aircraft bodies, automobiles bodies, utensiles used for domestic purpose, Beverages can. In automobile industry sheet metal parts are mainly manufactured with aluminium or steel. For steel we use deep drawing method and for aluminium casting is used. Metal Bracket is created using sheet metal application with the help of given method.

Design Methodology and Description

Sketing - Basic rectangular sketch is created

Contour flange - Only by selecting a side surface we can create flange

Cutout - Using the Normal cutout command we cut the surface

Bending - Using the bend we bend the given sheets

Breaking corners - Using the break corners we round the sharp corners of the sheet

Unbend - Using this command we can unbend the bended sheet

Hole - Using this command we create the hole in the 4 corners

Rebending - This is done to the component in the original design

Advance flange - This command is to create flange on complex surface.

Gausset - This is to create the small strength increasing component

Drafting - The new drawing sheet was created using the projects.
