    This lab requires you to think about the steps that take place in a program by designing a flowchart. While designing flowcharts can be done with paper and pencil, one mistake often requires a lot of erasing. Therefore, a flowcharting application such as Raptor or Visio should be used. This lab will give you a brief overview of Raptor.…

    A CAD model can quickly display an engineer’s ideas in a realistic way. And those models can be used to generate technical drawings that can communicate the information necessary to make the idea a reality. In order to generate a 3D model, designs must start with sketches that are generated within the CAD program. These computer generated sketches will appear resemble hand drawn sketches in geometry (the combination of points, lines, and shapes), but have big advantages over hand drawn sketches. One important difference between a freehand sketch and a CAD sketch is accuracy. The lines of a CAD sketch can be drawn perfectly straight, with start and end points that occur in exact locations in space. By using numeric (dimensional) constraints a line may also be given precise length, placed a specific distance from another sketch feature, or constrained to be oriented at a specific angle from another straight line. By applying geometric constraints a line can be made perfectly horizontal or vertical. If more than one line is being sketched, they can be made perfectly parallel or perpendicular, collinear, or equal in length. Lines can be constrained to be tangent to circles or arcs, and two circles can be constrained to be concentric. In order to precisely model a part, the designer must be able to use dimensional and geometric constraints within the CAD program.…

    I am personally decent at using AutoCAD, but, I am not so familiar with the 3-D portion of it, while Zach is and he was able to teach me more about it. He showed/taught me some really need tricks. The main command he advanced me in is extract, this is one method to making a 2-D object 3-D. A new command he taught me was subtract, this is when you take one object and put it through another object and then use the subtract command and you will have the object put through be deleted and leave a hole in the second object of whatever the first object was. These few commands he has taught me have advanced me in my AutoCAD career and has made me a improved…

    The goal of this paper is to study the importance of drawing (both formal drafting and informal sketching) in the process of mechanical design. This goal can be extended to state that we intend to show the necessity of drawing during all the developmental stages of a mechanical design. Through the information presented here, the requirements for future computer aided design tools, graphics education, and further studies will be developed.…
