Week 7 Challenge - Assembly Workbench

AIM

To create part models and assemble the components using the 2D drawing which were provided.

Objectives

• To create various part models from the 2D drawings.
• To assemble the part models into a single component.
• To create the 2D drawings of the components which were created.

Quick return mechanism

• Quick return mechanism consists of 5 part models. The main part is of a cross shaped in which part can be moved along two directions. All of the models were drawn in CATIA part workbench stressing more on boolean operations. To create a single product all these parts must be attached in proper way by arresting the degrees of freedom of the each component in both translational and rotational way.
• Each parts were brought together in a product workbench. Parts were attached together at particular place by using constraints toolbar. Coincidence constraint tool is used to attach parts at same axis which was selected. And contact constraint tool puts together the selected surfaces pf both of the parts.

CV JOINT

• CV joints have only 3 parts included in it. Among those parts two parts are used twice on both sides of the assembled product.
• Those part which needed to be doubled, uses mirror tool in part workbench and attached in assigned place in product workbench as using same tools explained in the above mechanism.

CONCLUSION :

• The part components and their respective assemblies were created.
• The 2D drawings of the components were created.
• Necessary files were attached.
