Week 2:- BiW Fixture Basics Challenge

FENDER: A fender is the curved portion of the car’s body that sits over and houses the wheels. The purpose of a fender is to prevent mud, pebbles, and other road debris from being flung about by the tyres In other terms, the fender is a wheel casing that keeps road debris confined. If there was nothing covering…

ROOF:  The component of an automobile that lies above the passenger compartment and protects the occupants from the sun, wind, rain, and other external elements is known as the roof or car top. The roof is generally an integral part of the body-in-white. It connects with other parts of the automobile i.e A pillar,B…

WINDSHIELD: The windshield of a car, also known as the front car glass or windscreen, serves multiple functions in your automobile. Here are a few of them. One of the most basic functions of a windshield of a car is to provide a clear, unobstructed view of the roads ahead to the driver. A clear view is of much importance…

INTRODUCTION       The accuracy achieved during a machining process depends upon the precision with which the tool and the work piece are mounted in the machine tool along with their accurate movement. Normal work holding devices such as chucks and vices are suitable for general purpose work, but when required…

AUTOMOBILE HOOD: Hood is the front most BIW enclosure component it covers the engine compartment and other parts in the front engine mounted automobiles. It cuts the air drag by providing good aerodynamic shape for the smoother ride and also provides good aesthetic look to the automobile. It has a Hinge mechanism which…

Kindly find the attached drawing sheets below.

2D DETAILING OF FIXTURE UNITS The fixture design before going to the manufacturing department needs to be detailed clearly and accurately. All the dimensions to fabricate the fixture units have to mention in the drawing sheets. There are different drawing sheets available as per the company requirements. As per the customer…

1.What are the drawing templates? A) Drawing Templates: If compared with the verbal or written description, drawing offers a far better idea about the shape, size & appearance of any object or simulation or location, that too in quite less time. Hence it has become the best media of communication not only in engineering…

Question 1. What do you understand by the 3D finish process? Answer 1. 3D finish Process- It is a process where the design is being completely finish and ready for final simulation and 2d detailing. While finishing the design the nominality is checked which ensures the easy assembly of all the units. The hole concentricity…

PFA files.(As instructed by Kashyap). The report will be included in the final project

1. What is the Base Unit? What are the typical parts of the Base Unit?        Base unit is one of the main units in a BIW Fixture. A Base unit provides the platform to mount all the other units like rest units, clamp units and pin units etc. Base unit also mounts the components like Valve…

1) What is Design Methodology?   The approach, process, or processes to be followed in creating a design are referred to as design methodology. Design methodology comprises a design tree in which the name of a specific component, assembly, or portion of an assembly is displayed in a specific order that is easily…

1.What is the process of project execution activity? PROJECT ACTIVITIES:         The process of project execution activity involves series of steps as discussed below  1) RFQ received: Request for Quotation is the first and foremost step involved in project execution. In this step the customer…

1. What is BIW and define its parts. Biw : Body-in-white (BiW) is the name given to a car body’s sheet when all its components—barring moving parts (e.g., hoods, fenders, etc.), trims (e.g., glass, seats, etc.), or chassis sub assemblies—have been welded together. Usually, BiW constitutes about 27% of…

BACK DOOR:  Back door covers the rear portion of an automobile. It offers the accomadation of boot space of an automobile.It is attached to the roof or body of an automobile based on the type it may open upwards, downwards or by sideways by the hinge assembly mountings. In passenger automobiles it protects from the…
