Week 8 - Challenge 5 - Core & Cavity Design

DRAFT ANALYSIS ON SWITCH BEZEL

CORE AND CAVITY OF SWITCH BEZEL WITH PARTING SURFACE

• To create the core and cavity of the switch bezel, the first step is to create the parting surface with the switch bezel
• The parting surface is created by exrtapolating the Class A Surface
• Then the Class C Surface and Class B Surface are trimmed to get an outline of Class C and B surface to give us the Core inner walls
• The inner walls of the core is then created
• A position sketch is created on the XY plane and the core box is created with enough gap on all sides of the switch bezel
• The rectanguar box is then extruded and closed as per given requirements
• It is joined and then closed to complete the Core of Switch Bezel
• The same steps are repeated for Cavity, but in this case Class B surface and the rectangullar box is trimmed to get the bottom walls of the switch bezel
• After creating Cavity, an intersect is created to get an idea of the Core, Cavity, Parting surface and Tooling Axis
• To get an idea of the Core and Cavity from the switch bezel, tranlate option is used to move the Core and Cavity on the Z axis.
