Hood Design

• Create a new assembly and insert a hood outer skin part save the file in the single folder.

^{Hood Inner Panel}

• Create new part as Hood inner panel in the assembly file and Using wave geometry linker to Extract the surface from the outer panel.
• By using 3D Sketch create a tooling axis for using direction creating emboss and other directions.

Flanges

• Offset the surface and using offset curve surface tool make a curve by offsetting the boundary by given master section data.
• Using Trim sheet remove the surface and creating flanges by joining through curve tool.
• Fillets are given to the all the sharpen edges and join all the flanges.

Emboss and Mastic Data

• Separate sketches were created to emboss the hood which is used strengthen the hood for develop in crash test.
• Create emboss offset sketch were created in sheet and make a cutout as mastic for purpose of pedastrian safety.

Hinge & Striker Mount

• Create a sketch with clearance on bottom and make an emboss.
• Trajectory sketch was created for hinge axis and mirror the geometry.
• Extract the behind the surface of striker and using law extension tool create surface on tooling axis direction.
• Trim and Extend tool is used make a striker mount.
• Thicken the part for final assembly.

Assembly

• Insert hinge assembly and striker in the assembly part and using assembly constraint to assemble the part.

Hood Outer panel

Heming

• Offset the surface from the given datum master section
• Using trim sheet tool to trim the offset surface. and create perpendicular surface by law extension tool.
• joint the three faces by face blend tool to be a single part and mirror the half part.
• Thicken the component.
