RE: Best practice to design sheetmetal parts

Well, obviously the sheet metal module would be the way to go here.

RE: Best practice to design sheetmetal parts

If you're running a pre-NX 9.0 version of NX, you can find the 'NX Sheet Metal' module under the NX 'Start' menu.

If you're running NX 9.0 you'll find the 'Sheet Metal' module in the 'Applications' section of the 'File' menu page.

Note there is also an 'Aerospace Sheet Metal' module for more complex models.
