Week 9 - Attachment Feature Creation (Ribs & Screw Boss) - Challenge 1

AIM :

Create the rib and the screw boss for the Drill Handle considering the design rules mentioned.

TREE STRUCTURE :

CREATION OF TOOLING AXIS :

extract the class A base surface, and create a point with (0,0) co- ordinates
create an 3D intersection line with reference to XY plane
Then create the line on the one side with reference to the drafted tangential curve. and again the same procedure for another side.
using the line command, bisect the two lines to form a centre line and name it as the tooling axis.
the line which pass through the mid point of the two line segement is known as the bisecting lines.

CREATION OF DRAFT ANALYIS IN CLASS A SURFACE :

draft analysis is the major important role of design check which show the design can be manufacturable with the required tooling direction.
for an plastic product design, there must be a minimum draft angle of 3 degree.
after the creation of tooling axis, open the draft analysis command using insert - analysis - draft analysis.
set the axis system in the line of tooling direction.
then draft angle for this product is analysized.
