Modelling and assembly of Sunseeker Predator Yacht and Radar Mast
Modelling and assembly of Sunseeker Predator Yacht and Radar Mast
Objective
- The objective of the project is to model the individual parts of the yacht using Solidworks
- To assemble the parts of the yacht in the assembly environment or assembly file using Solidworks.
- To create a photo - realistic rendering of the Yacht and radar mast using photo-view 360 and Solidworks Visualize.
Design Methodology
| 1 | Modelling the individual parts of the yacht by using surface modelling in Solidworks. |
| 2 | Modelling of radar mast. |
| 3 | Assembling the parts of the yacht. |
| 4 | Rendering the yacht using photo - view 360 |
| 5 |
Setting the yacht in an environment using Solidworks Visualize. |
| 6 |
Rendering the radar mast using photo - view 360. |
Description of features used to model the yacht and radar mast
- Extruded boss/base - It is used to create a 3D model from a 2D sketch
- Extrude cut - It is used to remove material from a 3D model
- Fillet - It is used to create round edges/faces.
- Mirror - It is used to create a mirror image of an part or a sketch.
- Revolve - It is used to create symmetrical 3D models from a 2D sketch.
- Circular pattern - It is used to create a number of instances of a similar part about the diameter of the circle.
- Chamfer - It is used to make a symmetrical sloping edge.
- Shell - It is used to define the thickness of a hollow part.
- Projected curve - It is a 3D curve generated using two different 2D sketches.
- Surface loft - It is used to generate a surface using two different cross - sections.
- Surface fill - It is used to create a surface within a defined boundary.
- Sweep surface - It is used to create a surface using a cross- section along a path.
- Surface trim - It is used to remove unwanted surface.
- Surface knit - It is used to knit open edges using a tolerance value.
- Extended surface - It is used to extend the existing surface.
- Surface offset - It is used to create an offset or copy of the existing surface.
