Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_7_ Metal bracket-II
Title of the Project: To design a Bracket using Siemens NX Sheet metal application.
DESIGN METHODOLOGY: 
Contour Flange: Creates a base feature by extruding the sketch along a vector or adding material by sweeping the sketch along an edge.
Break Corners: This feature makes sharp edges smooth round shapes or chamfer shapes.
Normal Cut-Out: It helps to cut material by projecting a sketch onto the model, cutting perpendicular to the face.
Unbend: This feature helps to unbend the bent shapes to a flat pattern. In sheet metal other features like cut-outs and holes needed to be created over the flat configuration. So that feature applied will be normal to a flat surface.
Hole: Cut or remove the material with a thread pattern on it. For applying the hole feature there should be a specific point, which will be the center of the hole.
Rebend: This command helps to rebend the previously unbent sheet and have a component in its original form.
Advanced Flange: Add a flange along an edge using a bend angle or a reference face. The edge and reference face can be curved.
Gusset: Creates a stiffening gusset on the part.
Flat Pattern: It is used to represent the whole component in 2D form. This flat pattern also shows entire features with dimensions.
Drafting: Drafting is creating a technical drawing into a sheet, communicating about the dimensions and view of components. The draft helps the manufacturing and production department to know about the product design in a 2D format.
Procedure:
Sketch the drawing for the contour flange on the XZ plane with a width of 158mm.
Using normal cut-outs remove unwanted material by checking the 2D drawing.
Use break corners to give a smooth curve to the corners according to the 2D drawing available.
Unbend the model and cut out the shapes needed in the model.
Rebend the model.
Use an advanced flange and select the upper edge with a flange length of 5mm.
Unbend the model again and give holes at the bottom of the part according to the drawing.
Use a normal cut-out by sketching the shape between two bends. Then use an advanced flange on the same sketch.
Rebend the model and apply the gusset feature at the bend as shown in the drawing.

CONCLUSION:
The sheet metal bracket is designed successfully using the NX Cad application. From this project, we get to understand advanced flange and gusset features.
