Week 8 - Challenge 1 - Base Bracket Design

AIM :--

Create the Base Bracket Plastic component through the given Class-A surface. To begin with, the tooling axis for the given Class-A Surface should be created meeting the requirements of the draft angle and at the end perform the Draft analysis on the model.

To be able to create solid from the given Class-A surface, by considering tooling axis and draft analysis.

  • The given Class-A surface:--

WHAT IS CLASS A SURFACE ?

It is an Asthetic surface and which is visible to the coustomers ie, Top surface,

A point was created at the center of the large circle, Using that axis system is inserted,

  • Tooling Axis:--

Create a bisecting line for the inclination lines,

The tooling axis is the tool movement axis (core/cavity).

This axis will decide the draft direction.

The above picture is the result of the draft analysis.

The draft is considered as 3 degrees.

  • THE CTREATION OF CLASS B SURFACE :--

WHAT IS CLASS B SURFACE ?

The surface which is thicken and applying the engineering features in it that sorface is called as CLASS B SURFACE

By extracting the surfaces from class A and then offsetting the extracted surface we got a Class B surface that is 2.5mm below class A.

  • THE CREATION OF CLASS C SURFACE:--

WHAT IS CLASS C SURFACE ?

The surface which joins the class A and B together that surface is called as CLASS C SURFACE .

By using the boundary Sweep is created.

And the angle of draft given in Sweep is 3 Degrees.

  • NOW JOINING ALL THE THREE SURFACES :--

JOINING A and C :--

TRIMING AC and B SURFACES :--

  • NOW CREATING THE CLOSED SURFACE :--

The Solid is made by using the Close surface tool.

  • PERFORMING DRAFT ANALYSIS FOR THE WHOLE BLOCK:--

Performed the draft analysis anf it had cleared the draft analysis for 2.9degrees.

  • Images of the color scale variant

  • TREE STURCTURE:--

  • Screenshots of the solid model with the proper color code of the draft angle in various orientations (Isometric, Front, Side, and Top View)
