Week 8 - Challenge 5 - Core & Cavity Design

CORE AND CAVITY DESIGN:

Procedure to create core and cavtiy:

• Extract class A surface from the given component

• Extrpolate the extracted class A surface

• Trim with combined class A and class C surface

• trim with class B surface to get the parting surface along with component

• Now,take a sketch to draw a core block around the component and with in the parting surface.Then extrude the sketch along the tooling axis direction to trim it with the parting surface and the component to get the required core block.

• Then fill the top surface by using fill option and create a closed surface out of it after joining them together.

• To create cavity block, follow the same steps as that of core block.The following images will picturize the process sequentially:

• Then repeat the same filling process to the cavity block also to create a closed surface after joining both filled and trimmed surface.

• So now we have to create parting line, it is defined as the area at which both core and cavity meets the component on the b side of the surface.To create parting line,an intersection has to be created between bsurface and the combined Class C and A surface.

So finally we can chack visually by creating the intersection between the XZ plane and Parting surface,cavity block,core block,componentand the parting line.
