Week 9 - Project 1 - Door Applique Design with Engineering Features
Tooling Axis:
We use tooling axis as direct to feed or inject the molten material into closed core and cavity portion without damging of tool.I t is created with different method (i)Bisecting method (ii)Creating sketch and intersecting with axis. More ofetn bisecting method is used to create axis.
It's applications are :
(i) It is used in draft analysis to analyse the part by locking the compass along with it.
(ii)It is used as direction to create class C surface in sweep command.
Draft Analysis:
This method enables us to detect if the part we drafted will easily removed during manufacturing and it meets the standard values of draft angle for molding process. This analysis is performed based on color ranges with different colors and draft direction at any point.
(i)Draft analysis did for class A surface:
(ii)Draft analysis did for Final Body:
Heat Stake:
The plastic is deformed by heating it to a temperature above the glass transition temperature. Super-heated air or a thermode is used for this. Pressure is then applied to create the stake. After the stake has been formed, the plastic should be cooled down again below the glass transition temperature.
Clearance value / distance value applied for heat stakes:
2 way and 4 way locators:
Clearance value applied for locators follow the below image:
