Week 9 - Challenge 1 - Base Bracket Design

WEEK 9 CHALLENGE 1- BASE BRACKET DESIGN

Create the Base Bracket Plastic component through the given Class-A surface. To begin with, the tooling axis for the given Class-A Surface should be created meeting the requirements of the draft angle and at the end perform the Draft analysis on the model.

Objective Of Challenge: To Create close body of base bracket, Tooling Axis Creation And do draft analysis of Class A surafce and Close body of base bracket.

Input: Class A surface Of Base Bracket

TOOLING AXIS CRAEATION:

1. First we have to check the Class A surface should be complete one patch. there should no gap between any surface. check with the help of join or boundry command.
2. choose the Tooling Axis such that The main Class A surface should be come clear in cavity along tooling direction. Tooling Direction is The Line in which Mould open and close . look by all diection and choose direction. Here it is looking two ribs and two hole looking clearly by XY plane.so we choosen z axis a Tooling Axis
3. create dummy tooling axis
4. take a intersection of Class A surface with Plane drawn.
5. create main tooling Axis by bysecting the lines which lies on Class A surface.
   
   DRAFT ANALYSIS :
   
   
6. go to INSERT> ANALYSIS >FEATURE DRAFT ANALYSIS for draft analysis of Class A surafce . Drag the Axis system on Tooling Axis And select Class A surface.Define The range Of Dratf Angle Like 0-3,3-above.
   
   
   
   CLASS B SURFACE CRAEATION:
7. By using Extract , Surface Untrim, Extrapolate, Trim, Split , Offset Command Created the Offset Surfaces of ribs.
   
8. Created offset to base by helping the above command Created The Class B Surface.
   
   
   CLASS C SURFACE CREATION
9. create the Boundry By BOUNDARY Command ,to create class c surface. here three boundry we get.
10. sweep the boundary and give angle of 3 degree length much more than thickness of part
    
11. join all Class C and Class A suface
    
12. trim the Class B surface from Joined Surface
    
13. create Body From closed Surfaces by CloseSurface Command.
    
    
    DRAFT ANALYSIS OF BODY:
14. Apply material to body by customised view parameter and the go to INSERT> ANALYSIS> DRAFT VIEW ANALYSIS .
    drag the Axis system on Tooling Axis,select body and define draft angle parameter.
