NX Sheet Metal Design

Accelerating design of sheet metal components of any complexity

Benefits
Intuitive user interface
results in reduced learning
curve
Streamlined workflow
requires less time for part
design
Features
Built-in design intent using a
focused sheet metal
workflow
Customer-defined default
values
Intuitive user interface
Built-in intelligence for
ripping and bend relief

NX delivers a tailored environment


for sheet metal design, with
onscreen controls and modeling
commands for typical features in
sheet metal components.
NX Sheet Metal Design includes tools
for unfolding bends to create
accurate flat patterns for fabrication.

Summary
NX software, the digital product development solution from Siemens,
includes a set of state-of-the art tools for designing sheet metal components.
Using familiar terminology and workflows, NX Sheet Metal Design provides
the design professional with a complete set of tools to efficiently create and
manage sheet metal parts based on the knowledge of material properties
and manufacturing processes. NX Sheet Metal Design tools incorporate
material and bending information, enabling the model to represent both the
formed component and flattened blank shapes.
The sheet metal design tools
within NX allow companies
to apply defaults based on
both industry and company
best practices to the
values used in the creation
of sheet metal parts. For
example, bend radii and
neutral factor values can be
set to commonly used values
to encourage re-use and
save design time.
Folded and unfolded views
of sheet metal components
can be used in both the
3D environment as well as
downstream in 2D
documentation and for
manufacturing.

NX Sheet Metal Design

Features of the NX Sheet Metal Design


solution include:
A focused workflow tailored specifically
to the design of sheet metal parts means
the design intent is built in the
software automatically accommodates
sheet metal production methods.
Customer-defined values for thickness
and bend radii enable designers to
change materials, the thickness value
and/or the neutral factor without
re-creating the part model.
An intuitive user interface allows
designers to interact more directly with
the model on the screen and less with
dialog boxes. Less switching from mouse
to keyboard saves design time.
Built-in intelligence allows the system to
automatically rip the material and apply
bend reliefs as needed when features
are added.
The solution creates flat solid blanks of
components that always reflect the
current state of the 3D model.

Allows forming from formed to flat, flat


to formed and formed to formed
Allows direct transmission between NX
and Trumpf machines without need for
general translators
A complete set of bending features
allows for the creation of flanges, bends
and jogs that can all be unbent and
rebent, as required. Also included is a
new method to generate sheet metal
parts from a solid which allows users to
quickly design a sheet metal enclosure
around it
Robust flat pattern and capabilities for
sheet metal validation, such as validating
clearances for bending and punch tools,
which aid in manufacturing processes
With a reduced learning curve and intuitive
interface, NX Sheet Metal Design enables
fast and efficient part design.
Advanced sheet metal
Advanced Sheet Metal Design tools are

also available to aid in the design of


complex sheet metal parts. Advanced
sheet metal features include general
flange and sheet metal bridge, which aid
in the design of curved and nonplanar
flanges. Also included are utilities for
general flattening and forming of complex
solid models, including sheet metal parts.
These flattening/forming utilities include
flat pattern, metaform and fabric
flattening. Each uses unique algorithms to
form a solid part from one state to another,
or to generate a flat blank shape that can
then be delivered to manufacturing.
Packaging and availability
NX straight-brake sheet metal design tools
are included in all NX Mach Series
solutions for design, styling and tooling,
as well as in the Mach 3 and 4 NC
machining products. The advanced sheet
metal and fabric flattener tools are
available as an add-on package for NX
Mach Series solutions.

NX Advanced Sheet Metal Design includes powerful forming and flattening tools for complex shapes.
