Week - 4 - 2D meshing for Plastic components

To Plastic check for the geometrical errors and take the mid surface by suitable mid surfacing techniques for Bottle Cap model. Meshing the bottle Cap as per given quality criteria.

S.No	Quality Criteria	Value
1	Target/Average length	1
2	Minimum Length	0.5
3	Maximum Length	3
4	Aspect	3
5	Warpage	15
6	Skewness	45
7	Jacobian	0.7
8	Minimum Quad Angle	45
9	Maximum Quad Angle	135
10	Minimum  Tria Angle	30
11	Maximum Tria Angle	120
10	Tria Percentage	15

Import the model in Ansa.

Check the geometry - goto - Tools -checks- Geometry - Execute.

Fix the errors.

Next goto -Mesh - Perimeter - Length - Perimeter 0.5

Checking the PID

PID is used to create the property for particular model.

Midsurface creation.

Meshing the component.

Learning outcome: Learn to use the different kind of tools to create midsurface to create a surface using midcurve.

Conclusion : The given bottle Cap model is meshed. Midsurface, midcurve extraction, creating surfaces from curve. creating new PID for variable thickness and meshing.

Model is attached.
