Hood design-Week 2
Report -
In this challenge I have to design a hood of a vehicle in NX12. Using some cad data given in a link, & data of dimenssions required and has to be followed.
Data to be used:
Hood Thickness Information
- Outer Panel Thickness = 0.75mm
- Inner Panel Thickness = 0.75mm
- Reinforcement Thickness = 1.5mm
Hood assembly consists of following parts -
- Hood outer panel
- Hood inner panel
- Striker
- Hinge assembly
To create a hood assembly we need to create parts one by one by following the given data, and assemble then.
work on nx12-
- First i have create new part in assemblies and named it as a hood assembly design. And insert the files given in a link.
- That is hood outer panel, hinge assembly and striker.
- So i have design hood inner panel only, and later assemble hood inner pannel with other parts one by one.
- To design hoood inner panel first create a new part file, and named it as hood inner panel.
- design hood inner panel with the help of dimenssions of hood outer panel by offset the surface with 1.7mm.
- Craete some emboses in it to give some clearance for mastic. By doing some operations like curve on surface, emboss and edge blend.
- Then do some operations like create sketch and trim sheet to give shape hood inner panel that give some strength to it and ilasticity to.
- Create more embosses for hinge assembly and striker. and assemble hinge assembly and striker with hood inner panel.
- striker mounting -
- give hood inner panels surface a thickness of 0.75mm.
- Do some operation on hood outer panel for hemming in nx12.
- Operations like offset with 2.65 mm, law extenssion and face blend that is three face blend.
- After final touch i have a assembly of hood.
