Week 8 - Challenge 3 - Coin Holder Design

DESIGN OF COIN HOLDER

Aim:- To make a model from the provided class A surface

Class A Surface:

A surface made by the designer which is given as an input to the plastic modeler to work on. It is aesthetic surface and the outer most surface.

Class B Surface:

A surface below a certain thickness from the class-A surface is class-B surface. This is the surface that contains engineering aspects of a model.

  • Side Wall

  • Base

  • Top Wall

  • Outer Flange

  • Final B Surface

Class C Surface:

A surface that joins class A and class-B surfaces is class-C surface.

  • C Surface Outer Flange

  • C SURFACE SWEEP

Final Model:

Join class-A and class-C surfaces together. Then join class-B surface to them. Go to the part design and close the feature. Run draft analysis on the model.

Draft Analysis:

  • Go to the Insert menu and select the Analysis option.
  • Select Feature Draft Analysis.
  • Select the Material option and select the surface.
  • Drag the compass and place on tooling axis.
  • Make sure that the top surface is in green colour as draft angle should not exceed 3deg.
  • Click on Okay after confirm the model.
  • 3 degree angle is the best with plastic design

Tooling Axis:

  • Intersect the model with the plane perpendicular or to an axis system
  • Extend the lines which are perpendicular to the plane
  • Again intersect the model with another plane and extend the lines perpendicular to create a bisecting line by bisecting option in Line definition.
  • Rename it as Tooling Axis.
