Week 8 - Challenge 4 - Bumper

AIM: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.

Take the Thickness of the component to be 3 mm

Design Approach:

  • Creating the B and C surface
  • Creating the tooling axis
  • Performing the draft analysis on both A surface and final plastic components.
  • Take the Thickness of the component to be 3 mm

Class A SURFACE IS

  1. Visible surface and aesthetic look
  2. Surface with textures
  3. Surfaces provided by Customer (OEM)
  4. Don’t have any features like (rib, snap, bosses, etc) on class A surface.
  5. Class A surface is made from scanned data with different software like alias etc.
  6. Surfaces which are having CURVATURE CONTINUITY IS CALLED class-A.

CREATING TOOLING AXIS:

  • Intersected the plane on class A
  • connected two out points by line.
  • Excruded the line by taking the point on the surface

CLASS A DRAFT ANALYSIS:

CLASS B SURFACE IS:

  1. Invisible Surfaces.
  2. Surface mostly don't have textures
  3. Surface needs to be created according to the class-A surface.
  4. Having all features in B-side surface only.
  5. Surfaces which is having TANGENT CONTINUITY IS CALLED class-B

Just Offseted the Class A for 3mm & performed some modifications as per requirement.

CLASS C SURFACE:

Took a boundry for class A

Sweept using boundry & Reference surface.

CLASS A+C SURFACE:

Join the class A & c surface together

FINAL TRIM SURFACE:

Trimed Class A,Class C with Class B

CLOSED SURFACE:

DRAFT ANALYSIS OF FINAL COMPONENT:

FEATURE TREE:

DIFFERENT VIEWS:

1) Isometric View:

2) Top View:

3) Front View:

4) Right Side View:

CONCLUSION: Thus I have created the Bumper model using Class A Surface
