Design methodologies involves a set of activities that are performed from start of the design to the end. There are a few parametres that need to be considered to start moving towards design.…

Q. What do you understand by the 3D finish process?3D finish is the process in which the fixture is made ready for final simulation and 2D detailing. The fixture should look the same as we want it to be assembled on the assembly line. In 3D finish, we take care of the small details for finishing the fixture. Activities…

1. What is the Base Unit? What are the typical parts of the Base Unit?Base unit is one of the key units in a BIW Fixture. A Base unit is used to mount all the other units like rest units, clamp units and pin units etc. Base unit also mounts the components like Valve Bank, Junction Box, Eye Bolts, trunking cable path etc.…

In this report we have provided the rough locators and performed 3D finish on all the units. In designing the rough locators we have considered all the design considerartions for their height and position of mounting to ensure correct orientation and positioning of panel loading fow each panel. In performing 3D finish,…

Q. What are the Drawing templates?Drawing templates are the standard drawing files that are used to detail the 3D parts like mylars, pins, weldments, blades, pin retainers and L blocks that are designed and 3D finished.Drawing Templates provides a platform where a designer can convey the details of design of a part or…

1. What is the process of project execution activity?Project activities involve all the activities from the RFQ (Request for Quotation) received from the customer to the Dispatch of Fixtures from our side.  A request for quotation (RfQ) is a business process in which a company or public entity requests a…

 In the first part of this challenge, I have made 2D drawings of all the Clamp Units and also a pin clamp unit. These units are made up of Mylars, Pins, L blocks, rectangular blocks, clamp arms, blades, risers, Rough Locators, Brackets etc. all of which have been detailed in their respective sheets. Also, their material,…

In this challenge, I have added a fixture assembly BOM and BOP list. BOM(Bill of Material) cntains all the standard, manufactured parts and brought out parts that are used in the fixture assembly. It also contains the quantity, material and Make(for Bought outs) of the parts used. It has been made unit wise. Under each…
