Advanced Sheet Metal Design Using NX Cad Challenge_7_ Metal bracket-II
REPORT :
1.TITLE OF THE PROJECT :
The Title of the project is NX_METALBRACKET2_Dileepkumar
2.INTRODUCTION:
Generally sheetmetal thickness range varies from 0.4mm to 6mm then it is called has sheetmetal,The sheet metal modellin is used for designing the models like the battery cases,casing for the radiators and also for creating the models that have rectangular or the square shape or the L brackets etc these kind of objects are more convinent for designing the objects.
If the thickness is less than 0.4mm then it is called has foil.
If the thickness is more tham 6mm then it is called has plate.
3.OBJECTIVE :
The Main Objective of this project is to design and develop the given metal bracket with the following dimensions followed by the cutouts and by the break corners and obtaining the desired shape.
4.DESIGN METHODOLOGY :

5.DESCRIPTION:
Tab : It creates the base feature by extruding the sketch by a thickness value along the given vector direction.
Flange : It is used to extend the corner of the component to a requried length at the given angle
Bead : It lifts the material along the counter of the sketch that stimulates a stamping tool
CutOut : This tool is used for cutting the pojected sketch on to the model perpendicularly
Gusset :This tool provides the optimum stifness to the component by providing extra material in between the surfaces or where ever requried.
Advanced Flange :This tool is used for adding the flange at the bend angle or the reference face
The process of develping this design is to first take base counter flange of dimensions width 158mm and thickness 3 mm,then design the shape by using the sketch after designing the requried the shape cut the sketch using the cutout keep holes where ever necessary has per the design guidelines and make the final touch ups using the break corner and use the necessary radius at edges finally give gussets at the centre portion of the flange.





6.CONCLUSION:
Therefore the given metal bracket is designed as per the given dimensions with cutouts and guessets
