Week 9 - Project 1 - Door Applique Design with Engineering Features
Door Applique Design with Engineering Features
Aim:
1. To create the Door Applique Plastic component through the given Class-A surface and perform the Draft analysis on the model.
2. To Create the Heat Stakes and the locators considering the design rules.
Draft analysis
The Draft Analysis command enables you to detect if the part you drafted will be easily removed. This type of analysis is performed based on color ranges identifying zones on the analyzed element where the deviation from the draft direction at any point, corresponds to specified values.
Tooling axis creation
The direction in which the mold or core and cavity opens is the tooling axis. And for that the model is visually analyzed to know which is the most suitable direction for tooling axis. After analyzing the direction, we can create dummy tooling axis, with the help of each walls of the component. Then by bisecting method, that is bisecting the dummy tooling axis, we can find the real tooling axis.
Draft analysis report of Class-A surface
The below figure shows the draft analysis report for the given Class A surface.
Draft analysis report of Final component
The below figure shows the draft analysis report for the final component. The blue colour zone shows that there is 0 draft angle.
