What is Solid modeling? correct answers used in CAD to create three-dimensional virtual
models of physical objects.
What is Feature-Based Design correct answers part is composed of 'features' such as extrusions,
holes, rounds, etc.
what is Parametric Design correct answers Dimensions are variables whose values can be
changed as design requires.
Give examples of a base feature, a sketched feature, and a placed feature correct answers Base
feature: extrusion, Revolution, Sweep. (First feature)
, sketched feature: User defined shape (circle,square etc)
placed feature:
Predefined shape; Hole, Chamfer
Describe the Part Modeling Process correct answers 1.Create a sketch
2.add dimensions
3.Extrude as desired
4.add other needed features
What are working drawings? correct answers detailed technical illustrations that are used to
communicate the design and construction specifications of a product, building, or structure. They
typically include precise measurements, dimensions, and other essential details that are required
to build or manufacture the object.
True or false: if part dimensions change, drawing definitions are updated automatically. correct
answers true
what are Composite & interference properties? When do you get to examine them? correct
answers interference can occur when two or more components of a product are not properly
aligned or do not fit together correctly.
You examine these properties during assembly.
What are Downstream activities?
Give examples of Downstream activities. correct answers Activities that take place after the
primary design and modeling work is completed.
Examples:
Solid Modeler > Rapid Prototyping
Finite Element Analysis
Kinematic and Dynamic Analysis
Manufacturing.
CNC part programming
Technical Illustration
What is stereolithography? correct answers Stereolithography (SLA) is an industrial 3D printing
process used to create concept models, rom liquid photosensitive polymers that solidify when
exposed to ultraviolet light.
Name 3 different types of file transfer? correct answers IGES: Initial Graphics Exchange
Specification
STEP: Standard for the Exchange of Product Model Data
Direct File transfer
why is the direct file transfer method the best? correct answers Benefits of Direct transfer:
Programmatic vs manual file transfer
• Allows for parametric studies - DOE, etc
