Week 8 - Challenge 4 - Bumper

AIM :

To create the Bumper Plastic component through the given Class-A surface. To begin with, the tooling axis for the given Class-A Surface should be created meeting the requirements of the draft angle and at the end perform the Draft analysis on the model.

Taking the Thickness of the component to be 3 mm.

REPORT :

• Given, Class A surface of Bumper.

• Creating a tooling axis by extracting one part from the surface and with the help of point and line, tooling axis been created.

• Performing a draft analysis on Class A surface by putting the compass on the tooling axis and selecting any part on the surface.

• Now, to create B Class surface, we offset the class A surface in the inside direction to 3mm, where we got to find that there are many empty places in the offset surface. Then, with the help of boundary, extrapolation, trim, split and join options, we created the B surface.

• After the completion of B surface, we proceed towards making the C surface, which is done by unhiding the A surface and then by using the boundary and sweep command, we created the C surface.

• Now, we joined the Class A with Class C surface, and then we trimmed it with B surface in order to get the desired output.

• At last, we changed it to the part design and by using the close surface, we created the desired bumper.

• Final Draft Analysis

• Tree Structure
