2-D Sketching Procedure

1. Sketch the geometry 2. Dimension the geometry 3. Modify the dimension values

Types of lines

1. Visible lines 2. Center lines (has overshoot) 3. Hidden lines

General Procedure

1.Select a sketch plane. Choose a flat 2D surface to define your plane. 2.Sketch a 2D profile. Sketching make use of various geometric relationships and dimensions to define a profile. Think of this as your "cookie cutter". 3)Add a Feature. Features are the building blocks of the part. Features are the shapes and operations that construct the part. In this example, we Extrude the sketch perpendicular to sketch plane to get a base feature.

- incredibly expensive to test - it is better to analyze components since it is much cheaper

Cutting

1) tin snips /powered shears. Most modern sheet metal cutting operations are now based either on CNC Lasers cutting or multi-tool CNC punch press. 2) CNC laser involves moving a lens assembly carrying a beam of laser light over the surface of the metal. Oxygen or nitrogen or air is fed through the same nozzle from which the laser beam exits. The metal is heated and then burnt by the laser beam, cutting the metal sheet. The quality of the edge can be mirror smooth. 3) Punching is performed by moving the sheet of metal between the top and bottom tools of a punch. The top tool (punch) mates with the bottom tool (die), cutting a simple shape (e.g. a square, circle, or hexagon) from the sheet. An area can be cut out by making several hundred small square cuts around the perimeter. A punch is less flexible than a laser for cutting compound shapes, but faster for repetitive shapes

Simulation steps

1. Assign materials 2. Specify restrains, which faces are fixed 3. Apply loads, where are the forces or pressures acting on the part 4. Run analysis 5. View the results. What is the factor of safety? What are the resultant displacements or stresses?

Sheet metal

1. Drawing > Drawing forms sheet metal into cylindrical or box shaped parts by using a punch which presses the blank into a die cavity 2. Stretching > A process where sheet metal is clamped around its edges and stretched over a die or form block. This process is mainly used for the manufacture of aircraft wings, automotive door and window panels. 3. Bending > Press brake forming: This is a form of bending, used for long and thin sheet metal parts. The machine that bends the metal is called a press brake. The lower part of the press contains a V shaped groove. This is called the die. The upper part of the press contains a punch that will press the sheet metal down into the v shaped die, causing it to bend. >Manual Brakes are also conventional for prototyping. 4. Forming Roll-forming is a continuous bending operation in which a long strip of metal (typically coiled steel) is passed through consecutive sets of rolls, or stands, each performing only an incremental part of the bend, until the desired cross-section profile is obtained. Roll-forming is ideal for producing parts with long lengths or in large quantities.

Dimensioning holes

1. For dimensioning circles we generally use the diameter. 2. Must use the diameter symbol (ø) before the numerical value. 3. A centermark is always placed at the center of the hole. 4. Centerlines are always placed along the longitudinal view of the hole/cylinder 5. Locate the center line 6. Use notes and designators for repeated hole sizes

Material properties

1. Isotropic 2. Orthotropic 3. Anisotropic 4. Hyperelastic 5. Plasticity 6.

Dimensioning Considerations

Placement of Dimensions

1. Place dimensions between views 2. Dimension outside of the part unless you absolutely need to place a dimension inside the part to make it more clear. 3. Dimension outside of the part 4. Arrange extension lines so that the larger dimensions are outside of the smaller dimensions (i.e., always place smaller dimensions nearest to the view being dimensioned) 5. Try to avoid having dimension or extension lines crossing each other.

Hatching Guidelines

The lines for section lining are usually thin and drawn at an angle of 45º unless the lines are parallel to the outline of the object. If the part shape causes the section lines to be parallel or perpendicular to one of the sides of the part, some angle other than 45º should be chosen. Spacing of hatching should be reasonably uniform to give a good appearance. Distance varies between 0.03 to .12 in (1 to 3 mm). Depending on the size of the area. To reduce cost and clutter, large areas are not entirely hatched. Section lining around the outline will be sufficient as long as the drawing is still clear and conveys all information.

Precise vs Tessellated Geometry

To visualize requires models need to be converted to an approximation of the underlying design. These "graphics," "tessellated," or "mesh" models are generated as needed to render the image. Tessellations are generated based on the underlying mathematically continuous representations of the geometry

Sources of variation in manufacturing

Tooling: > location of the part in the fixture > variations in setup > tooling wear Material: > non-uniform > internal stresses > previous process not performed correctly Operator: > inconsistent setuo > manual control > different operators Equipment: > repeatability of the machine > parts of the machine not 100% rigit > feed rate Environment: > non-uniform temperature in the room > non-uniform temperature of the part > humidity

Ribs in section views

When cutting plane passes through the center of the rib: - to avoid the impression of solidity, a section not showing the ribs section-lined is preferred. It might be necessary to section line the rib if it causes confusion. If rib A was not sectioned, it would appear exactly line rib B in the sectional view and would be misleading.

Sections for multiple components

When the cut slices more than one components hatching must be different

Auxiliary view

When the inclined surface has important characteristics that are needed to be shown clearly and without distortion, an auxiliary (additional or helper) view is used. This view shows the true shape of the distorted surface and is sketched parallel to the inclined surface.

Section View

When the interior details of an object cannot be seen from the outside. To show interior detail that is too complicated to show in regular views containing many hidden lines. Imagine slicing the object in the middle and taking away one half:

Decimal Inch

• In general, use a minimum of 2 units to the right of the decimal: 24.00 not 24 • No zero to the left of the decimal: .44 not 0.44 • Inch marks (") are usually not shown with dimensions. • A note such as "DIMENSIONS ARE IN INCHES" must be shown in the drawing on somewhere on the title block.

Cutting Plane

•A cutting plane depicts the exact location from which the section view will be projected. •Section views show how an object would look if a cutting plane cut through the object and the material in front of the cutting plane is removed.

Dimensioning Rules

•A gap must exist between the part profile lines and the extension lines. •A centerline may be extended to serve as an extension line. • Display only the number of decimal places required for manufacturing precision. • When extension lines cross objects or other extension lines, no gap should exist. (but only do this if you have to - avoid crossing lines if possible!) NEVER DIMENSION TO HIDDEN LINES

Positive Cylinder

•Both length and diameters should be dimensioned in the non-circular view. (NOTE: Compare negative and positive cylinders)

Dimension Chamfers

•Chamfering is cutting away an inside or outside piece to facilitate assembly. • Usually dimensioned by using leaders to specify the angle and the length. • If not specified, an angle of 45° is assumed.

Oblique surface

•Characteristic shape in three views. •Not the real size in any of the views.

Inclined Surface

•Characteristic shape in two views. •Not the real size in any of views. •In the form of line (edge) in the third view.

Interpolation by Cubic Polynomials

•Curves: -Given 4 control points p0, p1, p2, p3 -All should lie on curve: 12 conditions, 12 unknowns

Dimensioning Arcs

•Dimension by their radii. •Dimension line passes through the radius center and terminates with an arrowhead touching the arc. •A small centermark should be drawn on the center when dimension is given to the center of the radius. •Use symbol R before the numeric value. •Read other rules and exceptions from the books.

Other Dimensioning Rules

•Dimensions should be indicated on a view that shows the true size of the feature, particularly when the feature lies on an oblique angle. •This is why we use auxiliary views •NEVER dimension to hidden lines •Avoid a complete chain of dimensions and an overall dimension. THIS MAKES THE DRAWING OVER-DIMENSIONED!!!

Inferencing

•Dotted lines appear when you sketch, showing alignment with other geometry. §Orange inference lines capture and add a geometric relation such as Tangent. §Blue lines show alignment and serve as an aid to sketching, but do not actually capture and add a geometric relation.

Hole Callout

•Hole diameter •Hole depth •Thread type (if there are threads) •Depth of threads (if different than hole depth) •Counterbore depth •Counterbore diameter •Countersink diameter (largest diameter) •Countersink angle •"THRU" if the hole goes all the way through the material •Symbols (depth, counterbore, countersink, diameter)

Leaders

•Lines drawn at an angle (never horizontal or vertical) extending from a note to a feature to which the note applies. •Leaders are used to direct notes, dimensions, symbols, item numbers, part numbers, or any other pieces of information that are needed on the drawing

Line Weights

•Object lines are thick (approximately 0.030-0.040") •Hidden lines are a medium thickness (0.015-0.02") •Extension, dimension, and center lines are thin (0.007-0.010")

Broken Out Sections

•Only a partial section of the part needs to be seen • An Irregular Break Line is used. Remove a small portion of the object to reveal the inner details

Millimeters

•Place no zeroes to the right of the decimal point: 2 not 02 or 2.0 •Must place zero to the left of the decimal point: 0.2 not .2 or .20 (This is different than when using inches!) •The word METRIC must be displayed on or near the title block.

Units Common in Both Systems

•Ratios: 0.006:1 •Angles Angular Units: measured in degrees. Decimal degree is preferred over the use of degrees, minutes and seconds, and radians

Extruded Cut with Draft Angle

•Same process as extruding a boss except it removes material instead of adding it. •Draft tapers the shape. •Draft is important in molded, cast, or forged parts.

Dimensioning

•Specifies the geometric characteristics (size of the object), location of the features, and other characteristics of the features, such as diameter of the hole, tolerances, etc.•Specifies the geometric characteristics (size of the object), location of the features, and other characteristics of the features, such as diameter of the hole, tolerances, etc.

Dimensions Methods

•Style A: Dimension line is broken for insertion of the dimension •Or dimension can be placed above the line. |<------ 2.00 ------>| •Style B: if gap is smaller than 0.5in. -->| .500 |<-- • Style C: if gap is smaller than 0.375 in. |<->|-- .375 Style D: for very small gaps -->| |<-- .125

Standard Convention

•The most informative view of the object is normally chosen as the principal view (front view in here). •Not all the 6 views are necessary to represent the object. They have to be chosen in order to: Use the minimum number of views necessary to completely describe the part. Avoid unnecessary repetition of the detail Choose the views: > That show the shape most clearly. > Have the fewest hidden lines. > Show the object in a usual, stable, or operating position. > Take the view with most details as your front view.

Offset Sections

•To include features that are not in straight line.

Dimensioning Drilled Holes

•Use abbreviation THRU for through holes if not clear from drawing. • Use the depth symbol to define the depth of the drilled hole. • Simple fillet or corner radii may be dimensioned by a general note like: "ALL RADII R.5" • Size, quantity and depth may be shown on a singe line or on separate lines

Feet and Inches

•Used in installation drawings, drawings of a very large object, or floor plans in architectural work. (probably won't be used in this class)

Orthographic Projection

•You can project the information on the views to construct the third view once two views are established by using a Miter Line (at 45 degree to the horizon). •Start with a surface in the top view, then find the corresponding edge or surface, in the front view. •Intersection of projected lines coming from each point is the same point in right view. •Connecting the points shows the way the red surface looks in the right view. •Project lines from the points to the right of the top view. Intersect the miter line, and drop vertical projection lines. Then project horizontal lines to the right of the front view.

Principal Surface

•characteristic shape in one views with the real size. •in the form of a line (edge) in two other views.
