(5ME10) EXPERIMENT NO: - 01 NAME OF EXPERIMENT: -01 2D & 3D CAD modelling methodology using package AutoCAD. INTRODUCTION:- AutoCAD is a CAD software application for 2D and 3D design and drafting. It is developed and sold by Autodesk, Inc. first released in December 1982; AutoCAD was one of the first CAD programs to run on personal computers, notably the IBM PC. At that time, most other CAD programs ran on mainframe computers or mini-computers that were connected to a graphics computer terminal for each user. The term CAD (Computer Aided Design) applies to a wide range of programs that allow th user to created drawings, plans, and designs electronically. AutoCAD is one such program and it main claim to fame is that it is relatively easy to use, it is very comprehensive in its ability to create 2D and some 3D drawings, and it is very popular. Seventy percent of the CAD users in the world use AutoCAD.

2 COMMANDS USED IN AUTO CAD 1) Extend Command: The Extend command is use to lengthen drawn lines to meet the edges of other objects. When you use Extend command, you select lines as boundary edges and extend other lines to those edges. Procedures: 1- Select EXTEND from: - Modify Tool bar - Pull-Down menu - Type Extend at the command line. 2- Select boundary edges then press enter. 3- Select edge to extend then press enter to terminate the command. Example:

3 2) Trim Command The Trim command is use to shorten drawn lines to meet the edges of other objects. Procedures: 1- Select TRIM Command from: - Modify Tool bar - Pull-Down menu - Type Trim at the command line. 2- Select cutting edge then press enter. See figure below. 3- Select object to trim then press enter. See figure below. Example:

4 3) Offset Command The Offset command creates new object parallel to the original object at specified distance and direction. Procedures: 1- Select the Offset Command from: - Modify Tool bar - Pull-Down menu - Type Offset at the command line. 2- At Specify offset distance or [through]: Enter a value or pick a point on the screen. 3- At Select object to offset or <exit>: select the object. 4- At specify point on side to offset: pick a point on the screen you want to place the new object. 4) COPY Command In AutoCAD you can use Copy command to create duplicates of objects at different locations from the original. Procedures: 1- Select the Copy command from: - Modify Toolbar. - Modify pull-down menu -Type Copy at command line. 2- Select the object you want to copy and Enter. 3- At the "Specify the base point or displacement" Pick a point on the object. This point will serve as handle for the object.

5 4- At the "Specify second point or displacement" pick a point on the screen or enter distance. You can create multiple copies without leaving the copy command. 5) Mirror Command: The mirror command creates a mirror image of objects. Mirror command is useful for objects that present symmetry. You draw half of the object and you mirror the other half.

(5ME10) EXPERIMENT NO:- 02 NAME OF EXPERIMENT: - Creation of 2D Drawing (Sketching module) of any three mechanical machine component using Pro/ENGINEER. INTRODUCTION:- Pro/ENGINEER is a parametric, integrated 3D CAD/CAM/CAE solution created by Parametric Technology Corporation (PTC). It was the first to market with parametric, feature-based, associative solid modeling software. The application runs on Microsoft Windows platforms, and provides solid modeling, assembly modeling and drafting, finite element analysis, and NC and tooling functionality for mechanical engineers. Pro/ENGINEER is a fully associative system. This means that a change in the design model anytime in the development process is propagated throughout the design, automatically updating all engineering deliverables, including assemblies, drawings, and manufacturing data. Associatively makes concurrent engineering possible by encouraging change, without penalty, at any point in the development cycle. This enables downstream functions to contribute their knowledge and expertise early in the development cycle. This software has widely used in industries for modeling purpose. Following are few basic important working notes to get acquainted with this software. Pro/E also allows operator the flexibility of using sketched and parametric based design Pro/E is the power operator expect. It is the leading edge technology starting with project concept trough design assembly tasting manufacturing and modeling to rendering capabilities.

11 Introducing Sketcher Module Sketcher is the most important tool for creating features in Pro/E. It is therefore critical that you have a good understanding of how it works. We will take a few minutes here to describe its basic operation and will explore the Sketcher tools continually through the next few lessons. It will take you a lot of practice and experience to fully appreciate all that it can do. Basically, Sketcher is a tool for creating two-dimensional figures. These can be either stand-alone features (Sketched Curves) or as embedded elements that define the cross sectional shape of some solid features. The aspects of these figures that must be defined are location, shape, and size, roughly in that order. The sketching plane where we will create the 2D sketch is defined or selected first. Then, within Sketcher the location is further specified by selecting references to existing geometry. You will find the usual drawing tools for lines, arcs, circles, and so on, to create the shape. Finally, you can specify alignments or dimensions to control the size of the sketch and its relation to existing geometry. Sketcher is really quite smart, that is, it will anticipate what you are going to do (usually correctly!) and do many things automatically. Occasionally, it does make a mistake in guessing what you want. So, learning how to use Sketcher effectively involves understanding exactly what it is doing for you (and why) and discovering ways that you can easily over-ride this when necessary. The shape of the sketch but also in how constraints and dimensions are applied to the sketch so that it is both complete and conveys the important design goals for the feature. In Wildfire 4.0, some very useful new tools have been introduced in Sketcher. These make it considerably easier to diagnose errors in sketches (such as duplicated edges) or improper sketches (such as open curves for features that

12 require closed curves). We will investigate these tools by intentionally introducing some errors into our sketches.

17 Pro/ENGINEER Feature Overview Below (and/or to the right of) the datum creation buttons in the right toolbar are three other groups of buttons. These are shown in Figures 7, 8, and 9. If you move the cursor over the buttons, the tool tip box will show the button name. Two of these menus contain buttons for creating features, organized into the following categories: Placed Features (Figure 7) - (holes, rounds, shells,...) These are features that are created directly on existing solid geometry. Examples are placing a hole on an existing surface, or creating a round on an existing edge of a part. Sketched Features (Figure 8) (extrusions, revolves, sweeps, blends,..) These features require the definition of a two-dimensional cross section which is then manipulated into the third dimension. Although they usually use existing geometry for references, they do not specifically require this. These features will involve the use of an important tool called Sketcher. The final group of buttons (Figure 9) is used for editing and modifying existing features. We will deal with some of these commands (Mirror and Pattern) later in the Tutorial. In this lesson we will be using the Extrude command to create two types of sketched features (a protrusion and a cut). In the next lesson, we will use the Hole, Round, and Chamfer commands to create three placed features. Before we continue, though, we must find out about an important tool - Sketcher.

(5ME10) EXPERIMENT NO: - 5 NAME OF EXPERIMENT: - Creation of 3D detailed part for any sheet metal components is using 3D Product modeling software. Sheet metal modeling in Pro/E consists of a different set of features that help us to create Sheet metal model faster and more accurate. Features like bend, unbend, punch, Sheet metal cut, corner relief, form, extended wall, flat pattern etc are created for Sheet metal part modeling. Most of the Pro/E Sheet metal features are still using the menu manager (pre- Wildfire) interface. For example: none of Sheet metal feature was being modernized in Pro/E Wildfire. Only two features (create flat wall and create flange wall) were modernized in Pro/E Wildfire 4.0 and new interface for first wall and Sheet metal cut is introduced in Pro/E Wildfire 4.0. As what I can say, so far, more than 50% of the Sheet metal feature has not been modernized yet. There are many Wildfire users who are not familiar to the old interface. This tutorial is created base on Pro/ENGINEER Wildfire To create a new Sheet metal part, click new, then select part and Sheet metal in the dialog box.

34 2. A set of Sheet metal icons appear to you. You should notice that almost all the icons are set inactive except the unattached wall. Let us create the first wall of Sheet metal part using unattached flat wall. 3. The unattached flat wall s dialog box and menu manager appears. The system is now waiting for the sketching plane input.

35 4. Pick the plane which you want to start a sketch

36 5. Next, you will need to specify the sketching plane direction. Choose the direction and pick Okay 6. After that specify the view orientation for your sketch. Pick default for default orientation 7. You are now entering the sketch mode. Sketch the desire shape and press the check button

37 8. At the message area, you will need to input the Sheet metal thickness. After that, click the OK button in the dialog box to confirm the feature creation. 10. Sheet metal flat wall is created.
