Week 8 - Challenge 1 - Base Bracket Design

A PILLAR DESIGN WITH MASTER SECTION: The objective is to create the class B and class C surface from the given class A surface. To form solid body by combining all the surfaces. To create a dog house using master section using all the design rules for dog house. To perform draft analysis on class A surface and solid part.…

DOOR TRIM LOWER WITH ENGINEERING FEATURES: OBJECTIVE: Design door trim and the other engineering features like heat stakes and locators. Create class B surface and class C surface, tooling axis. Convert into close body with the thickness of 2.5mm. Perform draft analysis on the final components. DESIGN PROCEDURE: TOOLING…

Attachment feature creation: AIM:  Create the dog house for the door trim considering the design rules. INTRODUCTION: DOG HOUSE is an engineering feature used in plastic trim desigm. These are supporting features. There are few guide lines to create DOG HOUSE. DOG HOUSE draft DOG HOUSE WALLS. Part surface. Bottom…

BUMPER DESIGN To design bumper through the given class A surface. Design approach: Creating tooling axis Perform draft analysis on Class A surface Design B surface using offset  Design class C. Join A&C and trim it with B   Tooling axis: Tooling axis represents opening and clossing of mold core and cavity…

RIBS & SCREW BOSS: DESIGN PROCEDURE FOR DOOR HANDLE:   Tooling axis creation. perform draft analysis  create class B surface Create class C surface Join Class A, B , C create closed body Draft analysis on solid body Design Ribs Design screw boss Tooling Axis Referance point is created first  new axix…

Core and cavity design Core is the part which forms the internal shape of the model, cavity is where external shapes are formed. Design procedure: Create tooling axis Extract boundary from class A   Extract boundary from class A, extrapolate the boundary and unhide the surfaces, unhide the C surface and trim…

DESIGNING A COIN HOLDER USING CLASS A SURFACE Design procedure:  Creating tooling axis for class A surface Add draft angle To create base  Creating B surface  Creating C surface  Use closs surface to create solid part model. Tooling axis: For coin holder use line at midpoint of the extraced plane(Class…

SWITCH BEZEL: This aim is to design switch bezel in the surface workbench from the class A surface and perform draft analysis. First of all the we need to analysis the design and set a tooling axis and ensure that the design has least number of side cores, or no sidecore as these factors directly affect the production…

This is how to create a base bracket surface design through a given class A surface.  the first thing is to create a tooling axis, to create a tooling axix first of all decide the direction we need to give tooling axis then create a dummy tooling axis while creating a point and drawing a line. create a plane with…

METAL BRACKET (Using 2D Drawing): OBJECTIVE: The objective is to create a metal bracket using NX Sheet metal. INTRODUCTION: Using a 2D drawing, we will learn how to create a bracket, with contour flange. FLOW CHART: DISCRIPTION: Select a Datum cordinate system for a sketch, and draw the sketch with the required…

DESIGNING BRACKET: OBJECTIVE: The objective is to design a bracket using contour flange, here is the work flow for the following design. FLOW CHART: INTRODUCTION:  Here we will design a bracket using a 2D sketch. DESCRIPTION: Draw a sketch in XY plane, then use contour flange. Keeo width to 200mm and thickness to…

CREATING A SHEET METAL FROM SOILD BODY: WORKFLOW: Create a solid body in the begining, using sketch and extrude. Use SHEET METAL FROM SOLID command to wrap the solid body with sheet. Add features such as flanges, bends, jog etc., Unbend the model and add more features like beads, cutouts, holes etc., Rebend the…

BOX ASSEMBLY OBJECTIVE: The objective is to design a box, using NX Sheet metal. DESIGN METHOD: DESCRIPTION: Create a tab selecting XY plane, thickness of the tab is 1mm. Then add flanges to it, keep the length of the flanges to 200mm. Then click on the closed corners command and then close the gap at the bottom.  …

SHEET METAL CASING  OBJECTIVE: The main objective is to design casing and obtain flat pattern using NX Sheet metal application. Introduction: Here is the flow chart about how the design procedure for casing is done. Design procedure:  CREATING TAB: Open NX software select modelling, then select the xy plane and…

  DESIGN & ASSEMBLY OF YATCH  Objective: The main objective is to create  a yatch model inside solidworks by breaking down the design into parts and assemble them using solidworks assembly. Introduction: This is the detailed report of designing yatch from modelling it parts to the rendering…

Chopper  design and assembly: The chopper is perhaps the most extreme of all custom styles, often using radically modified steering angles and lengthened forks foe stretched-out appearance.They can be built from an original motorcycle ehich is modified(chopped) or buit from scratch. Some of the charcteristic features…
