Week 12- Final project

Week 12- Final project: Development of a Door Trim panel

Door trim panel is creation of CAD model considering following inputs as like in OEM and tier1 companies

Class A surface is givin but after applying boundries check, it has been found there is some improvement needed to be actioned to get a closed surface. Nominal thickness is taken from the provided master sections.

Based on the knowledge that has been gained by taking the Plastic Design Course by CATIA V5 I have develped Class B Surgaces, Class C Surfaces, tooling axis for every single part, also, I found a strategy to assemble the four seperate parts into one part design by creating engineering features such as Heat Stakes, Ribs, Dog Houses and Flanges.

1- Armrest Part:

First I have found that Class A that been givin has open boundries.

a. Class A Improvement:

Class B is created by offseting Improved Class A by 2.5 mm as per the master section.

Class C is created by sweeping Improved Class A Surface and it has been trimed with Class B Surface.

Main Tooling Axis and Side Tooling Axis are created in such way to provide drafting.

Close Body is created from the fully close surface:

Final Output

The CATpart and CATproduct are submitted in the attachment.
