Week 4 Challenge

AIM :-

1. Define tooling direction
2. Create tooling direction for Class A with 10 deg draft ( draft in command should be 10 deg) and show the draft analysis
3. Write the definition of the Parting line
4. Create B surface of the given lens in surface modeling (not in part), with a 4 mm thickness
5. Create a Parting Line for thickened lens and create a report for how you approached the parting Line and did a draft analysis?

1. Define tooling direction :-

• Definition of tooling direction :- Tooling direction is the main consideration for plastic parts and mold parts because it defines the movement of mold parts and the possibility of the plastic part coming out from the mold part.
• In beginning i created the point on CLASS A surface for creating tooling line and perform draft analysis. in some area the draft analysis not satisfied because in some area its colored in red which means the that area us under 3 degree draft ( checked its 2.60 to 2.75 degree in that area), so its not follow the draft analysis guidelines.

2.) Create tooling direction for Class A with 10 deg draft ( draft in command should be 10 deg) and show the draft analysis

• I created tooling line but not satisfied the draft analysis rules, so created another line with 10 deg draft( line colored in blue) reference to first tooling line( line colored in yellow). now Its totally satisfied the draft analysis guidelines.

3) Write the definition of the Parting line

• Parting line" in plastic design refers to the visible line on a molded plastic part where the two halves of the injection mold meet, essentially marking the point of separation between the mold cavity and core when the mold opens to release the finished part; it is a line that appears on the plastic piece due to the slight gap between the mold halves during the injection molding process.

4) Create B surface of the given lens in surface modeling (not in part), with a 4 mm thickness

5) Create a Parting Line for thickened lens and create a report for how you approached the parting Line and did a draft analysis?

Report points.

• First i applied close surface command into jointed close surfaces and made it into lens Solid body.
• Extract the front edges of lens body in to curves and join them.
• Converted the curves into smooth curves.
• Made change of graphic properties like , change line type into dashed , colored into orange and add thickness in line.
