Week 11- Assembly Workbench

1. FIRST GO TO PART DESIGN AND MAKE 2D SKETCHES AS PER GIVEN DRAWINGS. MAKE SURE ALL DRAWINGS ARE ISO CONSTRAINED AND SYMMETRICAL TO THE AXIS. SO YOU WONT FIND ANY ERROR OR PROBLEM WHILE DOING THE ASSEMPLY OF THAT PART. AND USE MLUTIPAD OPTION WHILE CREATING A SKETCH INTO SOLID. IT WILL SAVE YOU LOT OF TIME AND MAKE PROCESS VERY FASTER AS WELL.

2. FOR ASSEMBLY PART WORKBENCH, GO AT START > MECHANICAL DESIGN > ASSEMBLY DESIGN. ASSEMBLY DESIGN WINDOW WILL OPEN. ON THE TOP OF THE LEFT CORNER WILL FIND A SYMBOL LIKE PAPER JUST HOLD IT AND GO TO TOOLBAR WHICH IS ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE WINDOW. ON THAT TOOLBAR WILL GET A SYMBOL LIKE PAPER AND YELLOW ARROW ON IT. JUST CLICK THAT SYMBOL. THE BOX WILL OPEN. NOW JUST SELECT THE FILE FOR WHAT YOU WANT TO MAKE ASSEMBLY AND CLICK OPEN. ALL DIFFERENTS PARTS WILL OPEN IN ASSEMBLY WINDOW AT MAIN AXIS.

3. NOW YOU WILL FIND ALL PARTS AT SAME POINT IN THE WORKBENCH. ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE WINDOW WILL GET ALL PARTS LISTED BELOW THE MAIN ASSEMBLY DESIGN PART AS SAME AS BELOW IMAGE.

4. AFTER THAT CLICK ON THE MANIPULATE COMMAND AND MOVE ALL THE PARTS FROM EACH OTHER. NOW GO TO RIGHT SIDE TOOLBAR AND SELECT THE "PART" COMMAND. YOU WILL FIND A NEW PART IN THAT WINDOW BELOW THE ALL PARTS, NAMED AS "PART 1". NOW RENAMED IT TO "REFERENCE AXIS". WHILE CREATING THIS A DIALOUGE BOX WILL OPEN AND CLICK YES. IT WILL AUTOMATICALLY CREATE A CENTTER POINT WITH AXIS.

5. NOW GO TO THE PART ON WHICH YOU ARE GOING TO MAKE WHOLE ASSEMBLY. CREATE GEOMETRICAL SET IN IT AND RENAMED IT TO AXIS SYSTEM. NOW SELECT THE COINDIDENCE COMMAND AND COINCIDENCE THE BASE PART AND THE CENTER PONT. AND FIX WITH THE FIX CONSTRAIN COMMAND.

6. AFTER THAT SELECT 2ND PART WHICH YOU WANT ASSEMB N ILE WITH BASE PART. IN THAT PART CREATE GEOMETRICAL SET RENAMED IT TO AXIS SYSTEM AND CREATE AXIS IN IT. NOW USE AGIAN COINCIDENCE COMMAND AND COINCIDENCE THE BASE PART WITH THE 2ND PART. NOW THINK ABOUT THE DEGREE OF FREEDOM OF THAT PART AND ACCORDINGLY CONSTRAIN 2ND PART WIHT THE PLANE OF BASE PART WITH THE HELP OF COMMAND OFFSET CONSTRAIN.

7. REPEAT STEP 6 FOR ASSEMBLY OF REAMNING PART TO BASE PART.

8. FOR BETTER UNDERTSTANDING, PROCEDURE IS SAME JUST YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT THE DEGRRE OF FREEDOM OF THE PART WHICH YOU ARE GOING TO ASSEMBLE WITH OTHER PART AND RESTRICT THE UNNECCESERY MOVMENT OF THAT PART USING THE DIFFERENT CONSTRAIN COMMANDS.
