Pro/ENGINEER Functionality

    Pro/ENGINEER Functionality




The basic functionality of Pro/ENGINEER is broken into four major areas:



•         Part Modeling and Design

•         Assembly Modeling and Design

•         Design Documentation (Drawing Generation)


•         General Functionality 

                              

Part Design and Modeling


Defining Geometry - Feature-Based Design

• Create sketched features including protrusions, cuts, and slots made by either extruding, revolving, or sweeping along a 2D sketched trajectory, or blending between parallel sections 
• Create pick and place features, such as holes, shafts, chamfers, rounds, shells, regular drafts, flanges, ribs, etc. 

• Sketch cosmetic features 

• Reference datum planes, axes, points, curves, coordinate systems, and 

        graphs for creating non-solid reference datum

Manipulating Geometry and Parametric Modeling


• Modify, delete, suppress, redefine, and reorder features, as well as making features "read-only" 

• Create table-driven parts by adding dimensions to the family table 

• Capture design intent by creating relations between part dimensions and parameters 

• Generate engineering information, including mass properties of parts, model cross sections, and reference dimensions 

• Create geometric tolerances and surface finishes on models 

• Assign density, units, material properties or user-specified mass properties to a model 

• Additional functionality available through Pro/FEATURE.

   Assembly Design

•   Place components and subassemblies using commands like mate, align, and insert to         create full product assemblies

•       Disassemble components from an assembly

•       Modify assembly placement offsets

•       Create and modify assembly datum planes, coordinate systems, and cross sections

•        Modify part dimensions in assembly mode

•        Generate engineering information, bills of materials, reference dimensions, and           assembly mass properties

•         Additional functionality available through Pro/ASSEMBLY

Design Documentation (Model  Drawings):

• Create numerous types of drawing views, including general, projection, auxiliary, detailed, exploded, partial, area cross-section, and perspective 
• Perform extensive view modifications, including changing the view scale and the bound-aries of partial or detailed views, adding projection and cross-section view arrows, & creating snapshot views 
• Create drawings with multiple models, delete a model from a drawing, set and high-light the current model of a drawing 

• Use a sketch as a parametric drawing format 

• Manipulate dimensions, including show, erase, switch view, flip arrows, move dimen-sions, text, or attach points 

• Modify dimension values and number of digits 

• Create, show, move, erase, and switch view for standard notes 

• Include existing geometric tolerances in drawing notes 

• Update the model geometry to incorporate design changes 

• Markup drawings to indicate changes to be made 

• Export a drawing IGES file 

• Additional functionality available through Pro/DETAIL.

TYPES OF PATTERNS

Image
The common types of patterns are 1.          Single piece pattern 2.       Split piece pattern 3.        Loose piece pattern 4.       Gated pattern 5.         Match pattern 6.         Sweep pattern 7.       Cope and drag pattern 8.        Skeleton pattern 9.       Shell pattern 10.   Follow board pattern   Single piece pattern:                This is the simplest type of pattern, exactly like the desired casting. For making a mould, the pattern is accommodated either in cope or drag. Used for producing a few large castings, for example, stuffing box of steam engine.        Split ...

HYDRAULIC LIFTING SYSTEM FOR FOUR WHEELER

Image
HYDRAULIC LIFTING SYSTEM FOR FOUR WHEELER SYNOPSIS                                Here we have fabricate the hydraulic lifting system for four wheeler for the lifting system is which is very helpful for the all four wheelers. The main reason to fabricate this equipment is easy to handle the vehicle during puncture or some repairs made in critical situation without arranging the lifting arrangements externally. In our project is fixed on the vehicle and the vehicle can move up by just operating the motor in this equipment. So we can easily make the lifting operation by this equipment. This equipment is suitable for all four wheeler vehicles. METHODOLOGY This project consists the following parts  Hydraulic jack  Motor   Cam   Moving shaft  Guide  Battery   Control unit WORKING PRINCIPLE               The equipment ...

TENSILE TEST

Image
TENSILE TEST:                                           A tensile test, also known as tension test, is probably the most fundamental type of mechanical test you can perform on material. Tensile tests are simple, relatively inexpensive, and fully standardized. By pulling on something, you will very quickly determine how the material will react to forces being applied in tension. As the material is being pulled, you will find its strength along with how much it will elongate.                                           Universal Testing Machine (UTM)                 A universal testing machine (UTM), also known as a universal tester, materials testing machine or materials test frame, is used to test the tensile strength and compressive...
