Lesson #6: Sweeps and Blends

Oops! Wrong Lesson - return to main tutorial page.

Overview of this Lesson
This lesson exit introduce you to the last part design features covered in this series. These be:
Sweeps
a feature that sweeps an discourteous or unsympathetic draft along a specified trajectory
Blends
a feature that allows smooth transitions between specified cross sections
These are very advanced modelling features with many options. In this lesson, we go away only look at the simplest versions. We will give rise several(prenominal) different parts that are totally independent of each(prenominal) other, so you can jump ahead to any unrivaled of these:
1. Sweeps
* Sweeping a Closed Section - An S-Bracket
* Sweeping an uncivil Section - A Lawn Sprinkler
2. Blends
* Straight Blends
* Smooth Blends

Sweeps
There are a number of different sweep geometries available in Pro/E. We will look at just two of them: sweeping a disagreeable section along an open trajectory, and sweeping an open section along a closed trajectory. A sweep can be used to bring to pass a protrusion, slot, or cut.



In the following, we will just create protrusions.
Closed Section, Open Trajectory - The S-Bracket
The part we are discharge to create is shown in the figure below.

The part consists of two features: the unscathed protrusion block at the left, and the s-shaped sweep coming clear up to the right. The cross section of the sweep is like an I-beam.
Start a new part called s_brack and create the default datum sails. beginning create the block as a solid protrusion, one-sided, with a blind depth of 60 using DTM2 as the sketching plane and DTM1 as the Right reference. The right edge of the sketch aligns with DTM1. The sketch of the base is shown in Figure 7.
Figure 7
without delay we will create the sweep. This is done in two travel: creating the sweep trajectory, then...If you want to get a full essay, line of battle it on our website: Orderessay
