Week 10 - Challenge 2- Attachment Feature Creation (Dog House)

Dog house design for the Door Trim:

Aim: Create the Dog House for the Door Trim considering the design rules and perform the draft analysis for class A and create the final close body component and perform the draft analysis.

Objective:

• Create the Tooling axis
• Design the class-B and class-C surfaces and join them.
• Use the Close Surface feature to make a solid body from the surface.
• Design the required dog house and analysis them.
• Perform the Draft analysis for the final component.

• Tooling Axis :

  Class-A surface is first analyzed to create the tooling axis. where the molds pull apart in injection molding. Tooling direction is essential for plastic product design as it decides the direction for mold separation.

  To create the tooling axis first we have to check the best suitable direction for tooling by using the compass. the y direction is suitable for creating the tooling axis because in the y direction most of the surfaces are clearing while performing draft analysis. Generally tooling axis is created using bisecting line method but here A line normal to the surface is created in the y direction and considered the tooling axis.

  Draft analysis of Class- A

  After creating a tooling axis we do the draft analysis. Before drafting we have to make sure that in the view mode it is selected for the materials.

  After selecting the feature draft analysis tool we drag the compass from its position to the tool axis. Then lock the compass. After that select anywhere on the component and it will give you the result.

  We change the minimum draft for the component to 3°.

  We can use the running point option to check the angle of the component.
