Week 8 - Challenge 3 - Coin Holder Design
FEASIBILITY CHECK OF CLASS "A":
- Checking Class A input for imperfections.
The input Class A surface is checked for discontinuities and joined together to get a complete Class A surface as one.
TOOLING AXIS CREATION:
Generally tooling axis is created using bisecting line method. But in the components where it has a bin, the tooling axis is considered a line normal to the base surface of the bin. The same is done with this component. A line normal to the base surface is created and considered a tooling axis.
CLASS B SURFACE:
As usual B surface is created using the standard procedure by extract, un trim, extrapolate and offset commands. B surface of this coin holder is divided into a base, side walls, a top wall, and an outer surface. B surfaces of all these subparts are created and trimmed together to join as a single surface.
The offset distance is kept at 2.5mm as the component thickness is 2.5mm.
CLASS C SURFACE CREATION:
Class C surface for this component is created using the sweep command. All the ends of the component surface were facing downwards, so the C surface will create a perpendicular to the B surface. To create a C surface boundary of Class A surface and surfaces adjacent to the boundary are extracted. Then sweep with reference surface commands is used and the surface is created at 90 degrees.
