Week 9 - Challenge 1 - Base Bracket Design

A REPORT ON (CHALLENGE) BASE BRACKET DESIGN

Aim : To 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.

Steps To Perform Given Task :

  • Create Tooling axis and perform draft analysis for given model.
  • Create Class B Surface from class A Surface .
  • Create Class C Surface .
  • Create a solid body using close surface command .

Create Tooling axis and perform draft analysis for given model :

To Create a tooling axis :

  • Create dummy tooling axis by taking any hole or simple structure as reference .
  • Create a intersection between the part and a plane ( Drafting can be expected to be difficult )
  • Taking any two lines which might create problem for tooling direction , a line is created coinciding these lines .
  • Bisecting line is created between these two lines
  • The bisecting line is taken as Actual Tooling axis .

    Perform Draft Analysis :

    Draft analysis is performed using tooling axis as tooling direction

    Minimum draft angle considered is 3 degree .

    Value obtained less than 3 will be highlighted in red, These regions Drafting is not possible .Hence Tooling axis should be changed or additional process is to done to produce the part .

    Create Class B Surface from class A Surface :

    A set of process is to be done to obtain class B Surface from given Class A Surface .

    These set of process given in tree structure below :

    Create Class C Surface from class A Surface :

    A set of process is to be done to obtain class C Surface from given Class A Surface .

    These set of process s given in tree structure below :
