Week 8 - Challenge 2 - Base Bracket Design

BASE BRACKET

Steps for specifying tooling axis:

  • Use Join command and confirm that surfaces are joined together properly with no gaps.
  • Analyse the surface model and decide the best tooling direction.
  • Create a point at the center, and create axis system at that point.
  • Draw the line from that point and name it as dummy tooling axis.
  • Intersect the point created and class-A surface, get the boundary line at the intersection.
  • Create the two lines from the angled line on the either sides.
  • Create a bisecting from those two lines, name it as a Clearing axis in Y-direction.
  • Intersect the point created and XZ plane get the boundary line at the intersection.
  • Create a line from that point, name it as a Clearing axis in X-direction.
  • Create the bisecting line from the obtained two bisecting axis.
  • Now name it as a Tooling axis which is required axis for the tool passing.
