NX One Step Analysis

Hello everybody... Welcome to Mech Dezignz... Today we will learn about solving a blank of 3D model in NX... So I have a sheet body in NX window behind... First we will have to take middle surface of the part by offset command... Lets start... So here thickness in 2.5mm. so we will offset the surface at 1.25mm... So we have got the middle surface as required. Now for unforming a blank, we have a command One Step Anaysis in NX. So we will go to the said command now... And we select the middle surface of the part Now we will select the vector from which direction the unforming is needed... We also selected the material and provided the thickness of the part also... We can reduce the element size for more precise blank shape, but then time process will increase... Now since it is called one step analysis, we get many more results along with blank shape that is Thickness, Stress and Strain reports of the part. This will let us know about the feasablity of the part as well... Hope you liked the video If any query, please comment down... Thanks...

Forming Suite Tutorial

Hello everybody... Welcome to Mech Dezignz... Today we will learn how to open blank in FTI (Forming Suite)... For this we will have to take middle surface of any part and then convert it into iges format... I have made a middle surface for the process now... So lets start by opening forming suite now... Then we will provide material properties and thickness And then select middle surface (as we have used this surface for unforming)... Then process setup for meshing details, which will be auto-filled... Then select punch direction and select auto for auto selecting punch direction... Then providing next options we can get the blank definition... Then go for nesting option and provide offset as per requirement... Thus we will get the layout of the strip formed... There are various options for one up, two up and mirror... Also we will get the strip details and utilisation... The same can be exported as shown... Thanks...
