CAD 1 - Practical Exercise 9 - Nozzle - Loft and Shell Operation in Siemens NX
This video demonstrates the model solution for the ninth practical exercise in the CAD 1 module at the South Westphalia University of Applied Sciences in Iserlohn. Together, we model the nozzle of our gear pump. The focus is on creating a loft and applying the shell operation.
The video is divided into the following chapters:
00:00 Task definition / Explanation of the modeling strategy
00:50 Sketching the guide curve and cross-sections
04:41 Applying the loft operation
07:26 Hollowing out the loft / Shell operation
08:15 Modeling the flanges
10:52 Designing the rib
14:07 Adding the holes to the housing-side flange
16:11 Fine-tuning the component / Chamfers & fillets
18:41 Mirroring the geometry
19:08 Adding the holes to the front flange
20:51 Final operations
