+Pro/SHEETMETAL Level 2 Training (Wildfire 2.0 & Wildfire 3.0 available)

Course Duration: 16 Hours

Tuition: $900.00 US

Overview: This is an advanced Sheetmetal course. Students have the option to customize this course to fit project requirements. Can be tailored for example for small battery contacts, aircraft mounting brackets, electronics enclosures, larger stove/oven components, or auto panels to name a few.

Prerequisites: Prior experience with Pro/SHEETMETAL and a willingness to learn.

Topics:

• Set up Pro/SHEETMETAL for team design efforts
• Bend Allowance and Developed Length
• Punch and Die reference parts
• Sheet Metal Bend Tables
• Transition Bends
• Xsec-Driven Bends and Unbends
• Deformation Areas
  

Exercise:

• Layout and develop oven and stove component.
• Create complex beryllium copper battery contact with bend on top of form feature.
• use bend table to control
• Use automatic Ordinate Dimensions on sheetmetal component in drawings.
• Design sheet metal parts defining the volume and support structures for the components of an assembly.

Discussion:

• Discuss differences between Notch forms and Punch forms.
• Transition Bends
• Sheet Metal Design Approach
• Discuss 2001 and Wildfire iconography.
• Discuss K and Y factors and how to modify them for specific tooling or prototyping
• Discuss stretching due to deformation areas

• Create Bend Order tables that specify the order, bend radius and bend angle used for manufacturing.
  

• Calculate the developed length of material needed. Pro/SHEETMETAL accounts for bends of different radii and material thickness.
  

Project: Several Brackets, Deep drawn form and combination. Curriculum can be combined with Pro/SURFACE tools for automobile sheetmetal functions or for smaller battery contacts.
