Week 8 - Challenge 1 - Base Bracket Design

BASE BRACKET CHALLENGE :-

FEATURE TREE:-

1)TOOLING AXIS:-

We have class A Surface as input.Natural tooling axis is created using holes center point.

Draft analysis of class A with tooling axis:-

Creating class B and class C surface:-

1)class B:-

Class B surface is made up by extracting the surface from class A and futher the surfaces are untrimmed then extrapoleated,trimmed and offseted by 2.5mm.Final trim is done on the offseted surfaces and we got the class B surface.

fillets:-

CLASS C :-

Boundary of class A surface is extracted and Class C surface is created using sweep command with tooling axis as direction and 3 degree angle.Holes bounderies also created using same commads and path.

JOINING OF CLASS A AND CLASS C:-

FINAL TRIM:-

THE SURFACE IS FILLED USING CLOSE SURFACE COMMAND:-

DRAFT ANALYSIS OF FINAL PART:-

The red area is showing that its not formable.I tried to eleminate that but came to conclusion that the class A should get modified accordingly.
