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

Draft Analysis of Fan Cover

Aim:

• To create the tooling axis for the given Fan cover model on the draft angle basis and perform the Draft analysis on the Fan cover.

Objective:

• The tooling axis for the given Fan cover should be created to fill the draft angle criteria.
• The Draft analysis should be done to check whether the tooling axis is created correctly.

Output:

Class A Surface

Class A surface Analysis

• The Boundary is created from the given Fan cover Surface A.
• The Disassemble is done to separate the curve and to verify whether there is any joint issue in the given Class-A surface.
• The verification is done and there is no joint issue in Fan cover Class A surface.

Tooling Axis Creation

• The tooling axis is created by intersect method.
• The point is created.
• Then by knowing the basis of manufacturing the tooling axis is created.
• The given Fan cover is viewed in the x, y, and z axes.
• The dummy axis is created to find the absolute tooling axis for a given fan cover.
• The Dummy tooling Axis is created for the X-axis by using the bisecting line method.

• The Dummy tooling Axis is created for the Y-axis by using the bisecting line method.

• By using the Created tooling of X and Y the Absolute tooling is created.
• The bisecting lines are used to create the Absolute tooling axis.
• The two bisecting lines are the Dummy tooling axis of the X and Y axes and through the point.

Draft Analysis

• The Daft analysis is created to see whether the absolute tooling Axis is created correctly or not.
• The draft angle is within the limit as per the analysis.
• The Draft analysis is done and the Tooling axis created for Fan cover is good to go for the manufacturing process.
