Door Arm Rest Week 8 Challenge
DOOR ARM REST CHALLENGE
Aim: To create Door Arm rest and add thickness to it
Draft analysis
The Draft Analysis command enables you to detect if the part you drafted will be easily removed. This type of analysis is performed based on color ranges identifying zones on the analyzed element where the deviation from the draft direction at any point, corresponds to specified values.
Tooling axis creation
The direction in which the mold or core and cavity opens is the tooling axis. And for that the model is visually analyzed to know which is the most suitable direction for tooling axis. After analyzing the direction, we can create dummy tooling axis, with the help of each walls of the component. Then by bisecting method, that is bisecting the dummy tooling axis, we can find the real tooling axis.
Draft analysis report of Class-A surface
The below figure shows the draft analysis report for the given Class A surface. The blue colour zone shows that there is 0 draft angle.

Draft analysis report of the final plastic component
The below figure shows the draft analysis report for the final plastic component. The blue colour zone shows that there is 0 draft angle, and the red coloured region shows there is negative draft angle.
