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

Create the Dog House for the Door Trim considering the design rules

INTRODUCTION

DOG HOUSE

Dog house is an engineering feature used in plastic design. Dog houses are used as support feature. Sometimes other engineering features like snaps, locators, and screw bosses are mounted on them to increase their strength.

Dog houses are subjected to draft analysis to prevent breakage of the component during ejection from the mould cavity. Dog house and other engineering components are built on the B-surface.

OBJECTIVE

  • Create a Tooling axis for the given CLASS -A surface.
  • Create the CLASS B and C surfaces of door trim using the given CLASS-A surface.
  • Create a final surface model and convert it into a solid body using the close surface command in the part design workbench.
  • Crea ate side core axis for the dog house
  • Create Dog house on the B surface by considering the design rules.
  • Perform draft analysis for both Class-A surface and Final part body.

Design Methodology

Class-A surface means visible surface. It gives the aesthetic of the component which is created by the styling team and gives to the part design engineer to create the part with all engineering aspects.
