Week 8 - Challenge 6 - Core & Cavity Design

Aim:

To create a core and cavity model for Switch bezel.

Procedure:

Creating Parting Surface:

• Create a solid model switch bezel from given input.
• Open the Surface A and extrapolate the surface to 5mm for all the boundaries.
• Now open the Class C surface and Trim Class A surface to the Class C surface.
• Then unhide the Class B surface now trim class B with the surface trimmed with Class A and C, then join it together.
• Now the output surface is the Parting surface.

Creating Core:

• First analysis the part weather it is flat or the part with projection. If it has projection is present then consider that side as the core.
• Now create a surface that covers entire component and trim it with the parting surface. Then make it as closed surface to create solid object.
• we can use fill option to close the empty space.
• now this part is called as core.

Creating Cavity:

• The opposite side of Core is called Cavity. to create cavity unhide class b surface and surface cover the cavity par
• Trim these two parts and close the opened surface with fill option.
• Here we don't need to worry about component profile.
• Open part workbench and form close object for core and cavity.

Parting Line Creation:

• The edge of class b and the body of class c and the whole body of Class A was take the intersection in ZX Plane.
• The layer form a Solid line is called Parting Line.

Core and Cavity Drawing:

Result :

Thus the task has been complected.
