Week 10 - Challenge 3 - Door Trim Lower with Engineering Features






- Insert a new geometrical set
- So we have 12 points, work on any point and then translate
- Start with the plane creation, use normal to curve, the plastic feature should be created in parallel to the tooling axis
- Create a sketch, draw a sketch with D= 7 mm and 5 mm
- For extrusion, create a new body, heat stakes, then pad itfor 20mm, provide 2nd limit 2mm for safety purposes
- Provide draft of 05 degree at all vertical surface
- Check whether the top thickness is 0.75mm or not, if not modify the sketch
- Provide fillet of 0.25mm
- Now heat stake is done, time to create RIB on ot
- To create the rib create a sketch on the same plane over the previous sketch
- pad the sketch, provide thick surface of 1.5mm with neutral fibre ,provide height of 3-6 mm
- Provide draft to every vertical wall
- provide fillet to all surfaces
- Union trim the rib with heat stakes
- copy the heat stakes body and paste special for 11 times, since we need 12 heat stakes
- Define one heat stakes body and use translator tool and point to point method to place it on the specific point
- Create a dummy body name it as heat stakes assembly
- assemble all the heat stakes
- define the main body and union trim the heat stakes assembly with main body
- Finally do the draft analysis and check whether b surface with heat stakes is clearing or not
CREATION OF LOCATORS
- Inserta new geometrical set for locator
- Create a plane on that point by normal to curve method (normal to tooling axis)
- Create a sketch for 4 way locator
- create a body name it as locator, pad it using thick surface ,provide a width of 1.5mm with neutral fibre
- Provide the height of locator more than height of heat srakes (20mm), so provide 25mm
- provide draft of 0.5 degree to all vertical surface
- champher the sharp edges with 4mm*45
- Add the fillets to all phase
- copy the body and and paste special
- Now translate using translator with point to point method
- Create a dummy body name it as locator assembly
- assemble all the locator
- define the main body and union trim the locator assembly with main body
- Finally do the draft analysis and check whether b surface with heat locator is clearing or not
