Input
Design Procedures
- After recieving the input surfaces, we have to convert into into a CATPART file and then open it.
- Then we have to join all the surfaces together and name it as Class A surface.
- We have to Publish the main operations so as to get a better view.
Tooling Axis
Publication
- Publication is done to the component to make it visible and navigate easily.
- To publish the component go to tools > publications and then select the tooling axis and the class A surface.
- A separate tree structure is formed under the main part.
Creating Class B Surface
Class C Surface
Rib Design
Screw Boss Design
Output
Draft Analysis
The Draft Analysis command enables you to detect if the part you drafted will be easily removed. This type of analysis is performed based on color ranges identifying zones on the analyzed element where the deviation from the draft direction at any point, corresponds to specified values.
Conclusion
The design of Drill bit handle have been designed and thus concluded.
