Project

Modeling of Sunseeker Predator Yacht

Objective :

Creating surface modeling of different parts of the Yacht using solidworks software
To assemble the modelled parts of the Yacht

Set of tools and features :

To model and assemble the parts of the Yacht there are several tools and features that were used

Here are some:

2D and 3D sketch : Sketches are to be drawn using available planes or in any dimension using sketch tool
Extrude : Helps to convert a 2D sketch to solid 3D model
Extrude cut : Helps to remove features in 3D model
Surface loft : This feature creates smooth surfaces using 3D curves and edges
Surface knit : To knit two or more open edges of the surface
Filled surface : Used to patch the surface with selecting the boundaries
Revolve : Used for producing revolved parts using centre line as axis
Projected curve : Helps to create 3D curves using two 2D curves
Pattern : Linear/Circular pattern helps to duplicate required number of features produced in required path
Trim : Helps to delete the sketch or features that are needed to be
Mirror : Helps to produce a reflected feature/face/bodies that are to be mirrored
Fillet/Chamfer : Helps to change the sharp edges to smooth surfaces and inclined faces
Mate : For assembly of the parts several different mates such as coincidence, concentric are useful

Parts to be modeled for Yacht :

Assembly of the Yacht:

All the developed parts were aasembled using assemble option in solidworks
Suitable mating conditions were selected in order to assemble the parts flawlessly

Conclusion :

Using several useful tools the parts of the Yacht were modeled using solidworks software
Using assemble function of solidworks , parts were assembled and Yacht is modeled
