Week 8 - Challenge 4 - Bumper

Class A Draft analysis

First the tooling axis is to be defined. The hole for the head lamp in the part is considered first. A point is defined in the center of the hole. The line passing through the point in x direction is constructed.

Using the above selected tooling axis, the draft analysis of class A surface is performed. Analysis result shows that all the surfaces have fairly much larger angle than 3 digree which is the nominal draft angle. The screenshots of the analysis result is given below

Final Part draft analysis

The draft analysis is conducted on the final part with tooling axis as reference. All the surfaces are greater than 3 digree which is nominal draft angle. So the part is manufacturable. The screenshots of the analysis result is given below.
