Week 11 - Final project

DOOR TRIM PANEL

In this project we are designing interior trim of the car i.e., door trim panel consider mostly as asthetic parts of the automotive.

Fig: Door trim panel

We have been provided with a Class A surface and Master section of the door trim panel by using which we are designing a closed component and providing a B side features as per requirement.

The input class A surface provided is:

ARM REST

Extracting surface from the given clas A surface and checking for the discontinuity.

Conclusion:

  • Understanding the Tools of Catia V5.
  • Learning design rules for developing the plastic components.
  • Developing the master section and B side features.
  • Assembly of components.
