Week 8 - Challenge 1 - Base Bracket Design

Tooling axis

  • Insert a point at almost the symmetric center of the part

  • Then Creating an dumy tooling axis

  • Then intersecting With Class A

  • Creating Another lines for bisecting

  • Then creating the tooling axis with the bisecting method [With the two lines and the point as support]

Draft Analysis

To do Draft Analysis, go to tools > analysis > Feature Draft Analysis. This tool has three groups of options namely; mode, display, and direction. The second icon from the direction group is selected and the red dot in the compass is clicked and dragged to the part to be drafted. The line in the dragged element is matched with the tooling axis and it is locked using the first icon in the direction group. It will define the tooling axis direction and lock it. Then click the base bracket. It will turn green or with green and red based on the draft angles. Draft angle is set to 3. If the portion has enough draft angle, it will show it in green.
