hello friends welcome to free CAD tutorial of sheet metal part design tutorial 02 and in this
tutorial we will learn the sheet metal design in free CAD and we will convert this isometric
drawing of a sheet metal part into the free CAD model and we will use the sheet metal workbench
and part design workbench i will close this file and create a new file and show you from the scratch
so here I have created a new file and I will switch to the part design workbench
and here I will create a body and then click on create a sketch and we will
create this base profile so we will select this top layer and we will create
or rectangle and we will delete this line and select a line tool
and we will merge it and now we will give the dimension so this horizontal
line is of a 43 you can see here this is of a 106.5 this is the 60
and this is of a 200 so this is the fully constrained profile we will close it go to
the model tab and here press 0 for isometric and now we will switch to the sheet metal
work page and we will select the sketch and click on this make base wall and now
we will click on the base bend and here we will get its property so thickness is
of 5 mm radius is of 4 and now we will create the flange here so for this we will select this edge and
click on the flange and now we will click on this bent and we will change
its property so length is of 56 select it
and now we will create one more flange now here if we see here we have created this flange of a 56 but this phase if you see it is a little bit outside
so we will select this edge and extend this edge and we will click on this extent and offset we will give
10 mm and let's move to the next feature we will create the main flange again
So select this edge and click on the bend and here we will click on the second bend and
length here is of 55. 55 radius is of 4 mm
now we will expand this property and check it so rest of the things will be like it
now we will create one more flange which is this one so we will select this edge and click on the flange and this is the length
of 76 so we will go to the length option and provide the 76 and radius is of 4 mm so here
as we are changing the properties our models gets updated and now we will create one cut here so for this we will select this face and
switch to the part design workbench first so go to the part design
go to the models app select this face and click on the sketch
and here we will project this vertical and horizontal edges so click on the project geometry and
we will create a rectangle and we will select this and this and add a
vertical dimension of 42.5 and we will create a cut which will be up to face
so click on the cut and select up to face and select this face click on ok
now press zero for isometric and we will add a fillet so here fillet is given r 22.5 but in
practical here only 12 mm fillet is possible so we will press the control key and select these two
edges and click on the fillet icon and provide 12 mm click on ok now let's move
to the next feature which is to create a cut here if you see here here is a 35 mm
given which means that there is a no material at this side so we will rotate
our model and select this back face and click on the sketch go to the isometric
and we will switch to the left view and here we will project the geometries we
will project this age and this age and we will create a rectangle and we will select this rectangle and made it
construction and select this horizontal dimension and make it 95 and this is of a 35 here we can
see it give the 35 and now this is the construction rectangle now we will create a one more rectangle
which will remove the material and we will select this and this made it coincidence and
this vertical dimension I will provide approximately 40 mm so here this construction circle was
not important you can directly draw this rectangle and give the position 35 mm from the top now we will
create a cut select extrude cut and provide the cut of 9 mm
so that this radius get cut click on ok and now press our model to disometric view and now here is a cut here so we
will again select this face and click on the sketch we will click on the project
geometry and project this vertical edges and we will also project this edge and
click on the rectangle tool and create a rectangle select a horizontal dimension
provide the 20 and select the sketch click on extrude cut and provide here 9 mm
click on OK and now here we will select the last feature and refine the shape so refine
is fault set it true now press 0 for isometric and now we will provide the
chamfer so here is a chamfer of a 12 mm so I will select this edge by pressing
the control key and this edge and provide the chamfer of 12 mm click on
ok now we will provide one more chamfer here so I will select this edge and click on the chamfer
and provide the value 30 mm click on ok press 0 for isometric and here is the two chamfer of
of 20 mm so i will select this edge and this edge by pressing the control key and click
on the chamfer and provide the 20 mm and now here is a two holes so i will select this face
and click on the sketch and I will create two simple circle and press control key and make these two equal and I will project the edges which are required for
dimensioning so I will select this point and this point provide horizontal
dimension of 25 mm and center to center horizontal dimension is of 50 and we will
select it and provide the diameter of 15 mm and from this point to this point
provide a vertical dimension of 30 mm and select this to center and add a
horizontal relation click on close now we will select the sketch and click on
extrude cut and from here we will say it through all say ok now we will create
this hole so we will select the face and click on the sketch create a circle
click on project geometry provide a horizontal and vertical dimension from this to this is of 35 select a vertical dimension select this and this and from
the top it is from this to this is of 30 select diameter and this is of a 26 and
now I will move the dimension click on close select the sketch click on extrude
cut and click on ok and now we will create this slot so for this I will
select the face and click on the sketch switch to the isometric and here we
will select a slot tool and create a slot and here I will switch to the right
view and from here I will switch to the wireframe and I will make this horizontal
and click on project geometry select this and this and now we will add the
dimension select this and this and add a vertical dimension of 11.5 and from this
to this point horizontal dimension of 20.5 and center to center distance is of 35
and now this is the radius of R6 so give it a radius of 6 mm click on close
press V7 for shaded view select the sketch click on extrude cut and say ok
so this is how we have a model this sheet metal component in a free CAD from
the sketch I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial so this is all about this
tutorial thank you for watching and thank you for your valuable time
