Week 11- Assembly Workbench

                                                       ASSEMBLY WORKBENCH 

AIM:

• To create assemblies of quick return mechanism and cv joint and to also create 2D drawing of the given assembiles in CATIA.

ASSEMBLY:

• Assembly modelling is a technology and method used by commputer-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 MECHANISAM:

• A quick reuturn mechanisam is an apparatus to produce a reciprocating motion in which the time taken for travel in return stroke is less than in the time forward stroke.It is driven by a circular motion sources (typically a motor of some sort) and uses a system of link with three running pairs and a sliding pair.
• A quick return mechanisam is a subclass of a slider crank linkage,within an offset crank.
• Quick return is a common feature of tools in which the action is performed in only one direction of the stroke,such as shapers and powered saws because it allows less time to be spent on returning tool to its intial position.

PROCEDURE:

• Create a all sketch by using positioned sketch command.
• Ensure that all the sketches in iso-constrained.

 

 

 

 

• Use pad command for thicken solid for all the above sketch.

 

 

 

 

 

ASSEMBLE ALL CATPART:

•  Create a new CAT product and insert all the above separate CATPART by using existing component command.
• Create a reference elements for all catparts.
• Add references elements like axis,points wherever we need.
• Use publication tool to make all the necessary elements like planes,points,axis to make visible.
• Make the refernce part fixed.
• Now using constrain,offset tools assemble the each parts to one another.

 

CV JOINT ASSEMBLY:

• Create a all sketch by using positioned sketch command.
• Ensure that all the sketches in iso-constrained.

  

  

  

• Use pad command for thicken solid for all the above sketch.

• Make the refernces part fixed.
• Now using constrain,offset tools assemble the each parts to one another.

 

RESULTS:

• Created 2 assemblies according to the content covered in the course videos.You will be provided with 2D diagrams of the components and you will have to first create the individual part files and then create a complete assembly of those part files in the assembly make use of the drafting tools to create a 2D drawing similar to the one given in the assignment folder.Hence it is proved...
