Week 9 - Challenge 1 - Base Bracket Design

Aim:- To create a Base Bracket Plastic Component through a given Class A Surface and perform Draft Analysis on the final plastic component.

Objectives:-

• Creation of Tooling Axis.
• Creation of Class B and Class C surface.
• Creating a solid part out of Surface Modeling.
• Draft Analysis of Class A surface and final plastic component.

Tool Used:- CATIA V5

Introduction:-

In this project, we are designing a base bracket using a given class A surface. The approach includes the creation of a Class B surface keeping a 2.5 mm thickness in mind for the complete component. The design also included Class C creation from the given parent surface.

Creating of Tooling Axis:-

• Create an intersection of CLASS A surface with the ZX plane and from the intersection create the tooling axis.
• Create a bisecting line using the lines shown above.

Conclusion:- Hence the given Class A model was trimmed and joined with Class B and Class C surface and it was attached below.
