Abstract

The module computer aided engineering has briefly explains about how production

operations are carried out in industries with the use of computer to meet the global challenge and to

market any product globally the manufacturer will be focusing the following aspects to manufacture

the product with good quality, the cost of the product should be very less, cycle time should be less

and productivity and efficiency has to be raised to meet this aspects computer aided engineering is

the solution. And the latest technologies in CAE like Reverse engineering and Rapid prototyping

help the manufacturer to create the engineering data from existing products and to modify and

introduce a new product in shorter lead time. The elements of Computer aided engineering are CAD

(computer aided design), CAM (computer aided manufacturing), CIM (computer integratedmanufacturing), CAPP (computer aided process planning) etc, which supports the manufacture in

different aspects to manufacture their product.

The Part-A assignment is the debate about the CNC programmers now a days in industries the

usage of conventional machines is with limited application due to various advantages industries

switch over to either NC/CNC/DNC all these latest machines the relative movement of cutting tool

and work piece are controlled by the data or codes called numerical control programme which can

be generated either manually by finding out the co-ordinates or by means of the use of CAD/CAM

software the debate is about the scope of NC manual programmers by the year 2020

The Part-B assignment involves in creation of the assembly drawing of the swivel machine vise

with the use of CAD software CATIA V5R18 it includes

Creation of individual elements of the assembly in part work bench

Assembled and various analysis has to be carried out in assembly work bench

The Part-C assignment creating the surface on the wire frame water scooter which is provided

in IGES format and various surface analysis and rendering of the image has to be carried out in

CATIA V5R18.

PART-A DEBATE

1.0 Introduction

In present days industries calculate time is equal to money to compitate in business it is

required to produce good quality products in the less cost this will be achieved by increased

productivity CNC technology is been used widely in industries to increase productivity such as

metal cutting machines- Milling, Turning, etc metal forming machines like bending forming

machines metal molding machines like injection molding etc inspection CMM,LMM and so on the

programming for this machines is done using CAD/CAM software. The development of NC come

across the following stages.

1) Stage1-NC machines programming is done by punch tape and fed into tape reader

Fig1.1 NC programme generated on punch tape[1]

2) Stage 2- CNC in this a small computer is fixed in machine itself by which the parameter

changes can be edited in the computer present in machine.3) Stage 3- DNC programme is generated in mainframe computer and distributed to many

number of CNC machines

1.1Advantages of using CAD/CAM for CNC programming

1.1.1 Chances of error

In present days number of axis is been increased to make the machine more versatilefor 5

axes machining centre the movement will be represented in CNC programme by ADDRESS

CODES- X,Y,Z,A,C as x-longitudinal movement of table in X axis, Y-lateral movement of table in

Y axis, Z-spindle movement towards and away from work piece in Z axis, A- Rotation of Table in X

axis, C-Rotation of Spindle head along Z axis in manual programming it is difficult for the

programmer to consider all these axes in the machines and programme the tool path but it is possible

in CAD/CAM based programming


10/37

1.1.2 Setup time

Setup time will be reduced in CAD/CAM based programming since the software itself

provides Tool list, power graph etc which can also be used for documentation purpose where as in

manual programming has to remember all the specification of various types of tools used for various

operation

1.1.3 Modification of programme

When there is modification of profile modification of programme is very easy in CAD/CAM

based programming that is by once again by editing the profile created for programme generation

NC programme can be created for new profile but in case of manual programming identifying the

block which has to be edited will take more time

1.1.4 Error detection

The process of simulation is available in CAD/CAM based programming through which the

cutting tool movement while machining and the profile which we get after machining can be viewed

so error in the programme is easily identified.

1.1.5 Effective use of machine and cutting tool

In case of CAD/CAM based programming the cutting tool and machine will be effectively

used were the standard machining process is followed like wile giving depth of cut milling cutter

will not be directly plunged on the work piece instead an entry helix is provided automatically

through which cutter will move in angular path so load on cutter will be less which increases tool

life where as in manual programming these parameters are not considered

1.2 Case study supporting CAD/CAM based programming

In modern days industries manufacture very complicated profiles in their products to create

such complicated profiles complicated machines are required one of such development is 5-axes

machining centre the common axes present in this are shown below

Fig 1.2 [2] Fig 1.3[2]

Fig 1.2 &Fig 1.3 showing axes present in 5 axes CNC machine


11/37


4

With the application of 5-axes machining centre very complicated profiles can be machined,

while machining the axes movement can be individually or combination of all the axes any small

error occurred in programming will be resulting in accidents which leads to spoilage of machine and

work piece so only CAD/CAM based programming is suitable for this type of machine even if

manual programming will not be effectively using the axes of the machine.

Fig1.4 Forging die of bevel gear[2 ] Fig1.5 Showing tool path while machining[2 ]

In Fig 1.4 profile of a complicated forging die of bevel gear which is been machined using

CNC machines for machining such complicated profiles CAD/CAM based programming is the

suitable method.

In Fig 1.5 showing the tool path generated by CAD/CAM Software which will be the

effective method for machining such profiles in reduced cycle time of machining with increased tool

life and without any strain hardening generation in work piece but in manual programmingidentifying such tool path will be difficult.

The other advantage in CAM based programming is creating programme for core and cavity

is very easy using either any one of part say with core profile immediately the programme for cavity

profile can be created it also suits for punch and die but in case of manual programming co-ordinates

has to be find out separately and programming has to be done individually

1.3 Conclusion

By 2020 there will be the tremendous development in field of CNC machineries with

various axes which is also required because most of the products gets modified day to day and also

to satisfy the customer product is to be manufactured in very short lead time and also manual

programming has only limited application. Instead of skill full programmers industries will choose

CAD/CAM software

PART-C Geometric modeling of Water scooter

3.0 Surface modelingSurface modeling is the methods for creating the surface on wireframe geometry The

thickness of surface created using this modeling method is negligible. The complicated profiles

which cannot be defined by the primitive shapes like spheres, cylinders, cubes, blocks etc has to be

created by surface modeling example the complex shape of automobiles, aircraft, ship structures etc,

In CATIA we can create the surface models and rendering is done to visualize the product using

Real time rendering. Material property is given to these models. Also we can use these models to

manufacture the product. The main application surface modeling is also in Reverse engineering

where cloud points are generated using laser scanning technique NURBS are fitted to cloud pointsthen surface is generated and finally NC programme is generated.

3.1 Surface modeling procedure of water scooter

Initially the wire frame model provided in IGES format is loaded into generative shapes

design work bench

Since the one half of the water scooter is symmetrical to other half the half portion of the

image is hided

Some discontinuous and extra lines are to be detected and deleted

Using the operations like SWEEP, MULTI SECTION, FILL, BLEND etc the surface is

created on the wireframe model of the water scooter

Once the half portion is finished the remaining portion is created by mirroring

Material property is applied to water scooter

Real time rendering is done

Fig3.1 Stage 1 Development of surface
