Week 8 - Challenge 6 - Core & Cavity Design

CORE AND CAVITY DESIGN OF SWITCH BEZEL

AIM ; DESIGN CORE AND CAVITY FOR SWITCH BEZEL

OBJECTIVE

The objective of this project is to create core and cavity for the switch bezel

TOOLING DIRECTION CREATION

• The first step of the tooling axis creation is the extraction of the base surface and insert a point on the extracted surface and then create an axis system by taking that point as references .
• After that created an intersection in the yz planes and drawn two lines using the sketch tool in two sides of the intersection, and created a bisecting line using the lines drawn.
• Similarly another two lines are drawn in the xz planes. but here there is only one side and on the other side there is no intersection ,so a line is drawn from the point created in the base and give an angle of 5 deg after that using these lines created a bisecting line.
• By using these two bisecting lines a tooling axis is created byy bisecting method.
• Method used for creation of tooling axis is bisecting method.

DRAFT ANALYSIS

• Both the CLASS A surface and the final body is analysed using draft analysis tool before starting the design the CLASS A surface is analysed and check whether it is feasible or not, if it satisfies the design rule then the design procedure start by using the surface otherwise it will be reworked.
• solid body is analysed after completion , throughout this analysis we can get an idea about the solid whether it can properly manufacturable or not.
• The steps involved in draft analysis are, first the view change to material mode and the analysis start.
• First the compass is placed alomg with the tooling axis and after selecting the body the draft analysis start, the draft analysis tool shows the draft angle of the body created through different colours, and if the draft angle is less then the body undergoes rework.

CONCLUTION

CORE AND CAVITY FOR SWITCH BEZEL IS CREATED.
