Week 10- Assembly Workbench

AIM:-

To create assemblies of Quick return mechanism and CV joint and to also create a 2D drawing of the given assemblies in CATIA.

ASSEMBLY:-

Assembly modelling is a technology and method used by computer-aided design and product visualization computer software systems to handle multiple files that represent components within a product. The components within an assembly are represented as solid or surface models.

QUICK RETURN MECHANISM:

In the shaper and slotter machine, a quick return motion mechanism converts circular motion into reciprocating motion, allowing the slider to move forward and backwards. The cutting process occurs in the forward motion, but there is no corresponding cutting in the reverse direction. A quick return mechanism is a device that generates a reciprocating motion in which the return stroke takes less time than the forward stroke. It uses a system of links with three turning pairs and a sliding pair to be driven by a circular motion source (usually a motor of some sort). With an offset crank, a quick-return mechanism is a subclass of a slider-crank linkage.

Procedure:-

1. Create all the parts individually.
2. Create all the parts by using proper iso-constrained sketches.
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
   
3. After finishing each part, they are assembled.
4. Initially, they are imported to the assembly workbench.
5. Then they are assembled using the assembly constraints.
