Week 9 - Attachment Feature Creation - Challenge 2

Draft Analysis Creation:-

Introduction

Draft analysis is done after completing the design before starting the production. For plastic parts easy to eject from mold, to reach high productivity the draft angle is an important role in this production. so we did the draft analysis after completing the design. In this draft analysis, we check whether the draft angle for all the surfaces is suitable for production or not.

Tooling Axis:-

First, we confirm the tooling axis whether the tool opens upside down or side opening along the part. After that, we create the tooling axis in part. For tooling axis intersection points we found out. So first we check the given class A surface is fully closed, or any other open is there.

Intersection curve created along the Z-direction. In this case, the sidewall of the coin holder is perpendicular to the z-direction. so create the line starting from the center point as we created through the direction of Y.This line is Tooling Axis lets rename it.

Side core Tooling Axis:-

for the dog house which is used for mounting the Screw boss Side core tooling is used. so we create a side core tooling axis. Create the line from the center point through the z-direction. this line is the side core tooling axis.

Draft Analysis;-

For that Go to insert select analysis in that select feature draft analysis. In the draft, analysis select Use the compass For current draft direction option. Drag the compass and put it on the tooling axis. Now click on the lock option to lock the compass. Now using the mode's set draft angle it shows the color variation on the surface. By that color difference, we found the draft angle difference in the surface.

As same as Side cor tooling also found the draft analysis for that compass is a lock on side core tooling axis & check the color-coding its shown.
