Week 8 - Challenge 1 - Draft Analysis on a Fan Cover

DRAFT ANALYSIS: -

Report on the draft analysis of the fan cover.

1. In first step we have to check the connectivity of the class-A surface. It means there should be no present gaps between two surfaces. It is fully connected class-A surface.
2. The next step is to find a tooling axis of the class-A. It means there are so many features and slots are available in the feature because of that there are so many difficulties comes to find a proper tooling axis. Like : - sliders, injector pins and so on.
3. In next step we have to perform a operation with intersect tool. In this tool we want to select a ZX plane and the class-A surface and then tool will create a intersecting lines. Now which line is not properly defined with axis with that line we want to create a line using point. Now using bisecting line we create a line and name it as tooling clearing X direction.
4. Same procedure we need to perform in YZ plane and the line we got name it as tooling clearing Y direction.
5. Then using with these two line create a line with bisecting line and that is out tooling axis. Now name it as tooling axis.
6. In next step we have to publication the class-A surface and tooling axis. This task is performed by the tool called as publication.
7. Now the draft analysis first go to insert go to analysis and feature draft analysis. Now first click the sign of compass then zoom out and pick the red point of the compass and drag it on the class-A surface. Now set it on the tooling axis the W direction is comes on upper side set the compass this way.
8. Now you got a red point on the curser click it on the class-A surface then you got the colored surface. And that same color with draft value marked it in the small box on the screen check the draft value from that box. If the draft is proper then the whole class-A surface is becomes a green. And if it is in complete blue then click on the inverse sign which is present in side of compass sign.
9. This is how the draft analysis procedure is performed on the class-A surface.
