Week 8 - Challenge 3 - Coin Holder Design

OBJECTIVE:

Create the Coin Holder Plastic component through the given Class-A surface.

To create the tooling axis for the plastic component

To perform draft analysis over the plastic component.

CLASS A SURFACE:

CREATING A TOOLING DIRECTION:

For this model, to use a line at mid-point of the base of the coin holder due to perpendicular walls of the class A surface.

CREATION OF B SURFACE:

I divided the entire model into base, side walls, top, initial trim and outer flange.

SIDE WALL

BASE

TOP

INITIAL TRIM

OUTER FLANGE

CLASS B:

CREATION OF CALSS C:

• Class c surface for this component is created using sweep command. All the ends of component surface was facing downwards, so the C surface will created perendicular to B surface.

DRAFT ANALYSIS:

• First the class - A surface is checked before creating the class B&C surface and finally the solid body must be analysis. Both can be done by following procedures.
• By changing the view mode to custom view parameters - material mode then the feature draft analysis is enabled.
• Then the compass was activated and placed with the tooling axis by dragging the red pointer and then locked it.
• Then, by selecting the quick analysis mode, the nominal value will be 3 degree and checked for the component's draft angle.
• The green colour area shows thast it satisfies the 3- degree draft angle. if not satisfied then by using running point tool the area is measured and then altered to get a successful draft for the created tooling direction.
