The emboss die, how to do that?

[ruedelapaix1]

Hello
Im working on a metal sheet to emboss and I need to manufacture the die that embosses it
My sheet is:

http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=d9015aa8-f409-46df-a072-e9c3fc32827d&file=Sheet.PNG

My probleme is that I cant find a way to model the die that creates the embosses on the upper face.
Any suggestion?
Thank you

To an Engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.

I;m using NX 7.5

Is it "one punch" and the complete sheet is done or "one punch per cavity" ?
I guess that a simple method would be to extrude the die cross section thru the sheet, then use Insert - Trim- Trim body.
Depending on the size of the extrusion you would get both options.

Hey Thomas,
Thanks, that works perfectly, the emboss is done on one single punch.
The trim body gives exactly what I want.
Have a good day
