Hello friends welcome to Free tutorial
0:02
and in this tutorial we will do modeling
0:06
and uh detailing of this part with the
0:08
help of a part design
0:11
workbench you can also visit my website
0:14
Mech nexus.com where I write articles
0:17
and tutorials on freead you can download
0:21
my tutorial source file from the here if
0:25
you like my method of teaching then
0:27
please support me on coffee.com
0:30
you can buy me a cup of coffee your
0:33
small support will help these channels
0:36
to grow and it will motivate me to
0:38
create more awesome content on
0:41
freead I will provide my website and my
0:45
Kofi donation page Link in a video
0:48
descriptions so let's come back to our
0:51
tutorial so here I will uh create a new
0:54
file and I will switch to the part
0:58
design workbench
1:03
and uh first I will create a
1:06
body and I will on my origin
1:10
plane and now I will select the YZ plane
1:14
and uh create my
1:19
sketch now we will uh create our uh base
1:24
plate which will be this
1:27
one so for this
1:31
I will uh select the line
1:39
tool or better I will select the
1:57
polyline now I will give the constraint
2:00
I will
2:05
select give it
2:07
vertical and now I will give the
2:10
symmetricity
2:12
constraint so for this I will uh click
2:16
on the symmetricity symbol select this
2:19
point this point and uh origin point
2:24
this point this point and origin point
2:36
this
2:37
point this point and this
2:41
axis and now I will give my Dimension so
2:46
this is
2:49
120
2:52
120 middle one is a
2:58
60
3:01
total height is a
3:06
15 15 and uh this one and this
3:12
one will be the
3:17
equal and this is the
3:23
5m 5 mm now I move it
3:28
down so that uh Dimension will be
3:31
clearly
3:36
visible now I will uh come out of the
3:42
sketch switch to the
3:45
isometric and now I will select my
3:48
sketch click on the
3:50
pad and total pad distance is uh 80
3:55
mm and from here I will select the
4:00
symmetric symmetric to the plane click
4:04
on
4:05
okay so this is the base plate we have
4:09
created now I will press the space bar
4:12
and on my origin
4:13
plane now I will create this cylindrical
4:18
feature so for this I will again select
4:21
the y z plane and create a
4:28
sketch
4:30
and I will draw the two
4:50
circles and uh we will fix the position
4:53
of the circle so this is a 30 from the
4:56
age so for this I will select all on
4:59
Project
5:01
geometry and now I will select this
5:03
point and this point and give the
5:07
horizontal dimension of uh 30
5:14
mm and uh it's a center distance is of
5:19
uh
5:20
60 I will select these two points and
5:23
give vertical dimension of
5:27
60 and I move it
5:30
now inner and outer diameter which is a
5:33
50 and
5:35
70 so first I will select the
5:39
outer give it
5:48
70 This Is
5:57
50 and the here is a
6:00
thickness of a 10
6:01
mm so for
6:04
this I will draw the two
6:10
line so before that I will project this
6:17
geometry and I will create a
6:24
line and uh I will make it a
6:28
construction
6:30
and I will select this and this center
6:33
point of the
6:34
circle give the coincidence
6:37
constraint and
6:40
now I will switch to the wireframe
6:44
view and I draw the two
6:55
lines now I will give the distance of uh
6:59
10
7:04
mm before that I will make it
7:10
symmetric click on
7:12
symmetricity select these two points and
7:15
uh construction
7:17
geometry now select on the horizontal
7:21
Dimension give it 10
7:26
mm and close the profile
7:35
now I will click on the trim geometry
7:38
and I will trim this
7:44
one so now you can see that uh we have
7:48
uh closed our
7:53
profile now we will uh come out of the
7:56
[Music]
7:57
sketch switch to the flat
8:01
lines total Extrusion is of a 60 mm so
8:05
click on the
8:07
pad give it
8:09
60 and click on symmetry to the
8:13
plane click
8:16
okay now we will create this
8:22
rib I will on my plane and I will again
8:27
select this y z plane
8:30
and create a
8:36
sketch switch to the wireframe
8:43
view and I will project the geometry
8:46
which I
8:47
required so I will require this age this
8:50
age and this
8:51
one and now I will select the line
8:58
tool I will select this and this make it
9:03
tangent this and this and I will make it
9:07
a
9:11
coincidence and uh select this point and
9:14
this
9:15
line make it
9:19
coincidence now I will select the
9:21
three-point
9:23
Arc select this
9:26
one this one
9:36
now I will close my
9:48
profile now let's see what is the
9:51
constraint so this is n
9:55
constraint so if you see here
10:00
this will be at the
10:03
center or little bit higher from the
10:10
center so I will give the horizontal
10:25
Dimension so here I have a given uh
10:29
approximate 10
10:31
mm or I will give it 5
10:42
mm and I will come out of the
10:47
sketch and I will switch to the flat
10:49
lines
10:52
again select the sketch click on the
10:57
pad 10 mm but uh symmetric to the
11:03
plane okay now in this
11:08
pad instead of uh giving this 5mm
11:12
Dimension here we have a dimension of a
11:15
35 mm so I will select the horizontal
11:20
Dimension and I will give it
11:23
35 so this tangent point will
11:26
automatically come now we will close
11:29
it so you can see that our pad is
11:32
automatically updated because of the
11:35
parametric nature of a
11:37
freead
11:39
now we have the four
11:42
holes which is the of a blind
11:47
holes so I will select this
11:50
face and create a
11:54
sketch now I will switch to the
11:57
isometric select the top
11:59
View and I will rotate
12:02
it now I will create a for
12:15
Circle switch to
12:18
the
12:20
wireframe and now the first thing which
12:23
we will do is uh select all these four
12:27
circles and make it
12:31
equal add horizontal relation with this
12:36
two similarly horizontal relation with
12:39
this
12:40
two now select these two points and add
12:44
a vertical
12:50
relation so we have added the all the
12:52
required
12:53
relations
12:55
now one more relation we will add which
12:58
is the symmetric so select these two
13:00
Center points select this axis click on
13:04
the symmetric similarly this
13:10
one select these two points and this
13:15
axis now if you move it so you can see
13:20
that it is symmetrically moving so we
13:22
have given the horizontal symmetric
13:24
similarly we will give the vertical
13:27
symmetric so again select on it select
13:30
this two
13:32
Center and this
13:37
axis similarly for this
13:44
one so it is already added because it
13:47
has the horizontal
13:49
relation so you can see
13:53
that now uh we will add the dimension
13:57
which is a center to Center is an 90 mm
13:59
so I will select this two and give the
14:02
horizontal dimension of
14:04
90 and uh vertical is a 50 so select
14:08
these two
14:09
points and give the vertical dimension
14:12
of uh
14:14
50 and now we will give the
14:18
diameter select on the
14:22
diameter give the diameter of 10
14:25
mm so you can see that uh with the help
14:29
of a
14:30
constraint we have a constraint this uh
14:33
Force circle with only three dimensions
14:37
horizontal Dimension vertical Dimension
14:40
and the diameter so it is recommended to
14:43
use the constraint tool instead of a
14:46
giving
14:47
Dimension more and
14:50
more when you use the symmetricity so
14:53
you can see that we have avoided the mid
14:56
Dimension horizontal and vertical
15:00
now close
15:02
it now I will switch to the flat
15:06
lines now here we have the two options
15:09
as it is a blind hole so simply we can
15:12
use the cut tool but here we will use
15:15
the whole
15:19
feature so here is a diameter of a
15:23
10 and dimensions through
15:27
all say
15:34
okay so you can see that uh we have uh
15:38
successfully converted this uh isometric
15:41
trying into the 3D
15:43
models and now we will uh create its uh
15:47
drawing with the help of a tech draw
15:52
workbench now we will switch to the tech
15:55
draw
15:56
workbench if you drop down then you will
15:59
see here the tack
16:02
draw so here on the tack draw first we
16:06
will insert the default
16:09
page so once you inserted a default page
16:12
a page will be inserted and if you
16:15
scroll down here you will see the
16:18
template and here is a your template
16:23
locations file you can simply click on
16:26
it and you can change the your desired
16:31
template for
16:35
example I can uh take
16:45
A3 so you can see that uh our temp
16:49
template is changed to the
16:50
A3
16:52
now we will click on the rebuild
16:55
tool and if you see here on the tech
16:58
draw workbench you will have the options
17:01
to insert the default
17:05
view and you can H to the symbols and
17:10
you will see that what symbol it is so
17:13
now first we will insert our default
17:19
view so here you will see the insert
17:22
projection group click on it so here you
17:26
will see that uh either you are are
17:28
using the first angle projection or
17:30
third angle projection in your
17:33
country so here I will use the third
17:37
angle
17:40
projection and here the options you will
17:45
see like I want uh top view and uh a
17:49
side
17:51
view and I click on
17:55
apply so here you will see that model is
17:58
not not insert it because we have not
18:01
selected the
18:03
body so for this I will
18:07
uh select my body first click on insert
18:11
projection group third angle
18:14
projections base view is already
18:16
selected I will select the top and side
18:20
and click on okay now I will go to
18:26
the my drawing view so you can see that
18:29
view is inserted but not properly so I
18:33
will delete this group
18:36
Again The Tweak here is a first set the
18:40
base view this is the base View and
18:42
select the body and click on insert
18:45
projection group and now I will select
18:48
top and site and click on okay so now
18:53
you can see that
18:55
uh our view is inserted
19:01
it and now
19:06
here we will click on our base view
19:10
click on
19:12
rebuilt and here and in under the
19:16
projection group you will see the scale
19:19
type here page type
19:23
scale click on the template so you will
19:26
see your template
19:33
and here on a view tab you will see the
19:40
details now let's uh do the
19:46
dimensioning so
19:48
first you will see the frame outside or
19:52
of drawing view which you can uh simply
19:55
off by clicking
19:57
here
20:03
now I will arrange my
20:09
view so here I have a change scale to
20:13
the8 so that my views fit in the
20:17
sheet and I click on
20:20
rebuil now I will move my
20:27
view
20:28
now let's give the dimensions so this is
20:31
the
20:32
120 so here you are seeing the vertex
20:35
point which are very helpful to give the
20:39
dimensions so here I will give the
20:41
horizontal dimension of
20:50
120 and this point to this
20:56
point horizontal dimension
20:59
of
21:05
60 now inside view this Dimension is
21:19
80
21:24
80mm and the thickness of a 15 mm
21:33
vertical
21:38
Dimension and from age to this point is
21:42
35 I will select this point and this
21:45
point and give the horizontal dimension
21:48
of
21:51
35 Center distance is a 60 so select
21:55
this
21:57
point this
22:02
point
22:04
and origin points and give the vertical
22:08
dimension of
22:11
60 this uh thickness is a 10
22:15
mm so select this point and this point
22:19
and give the horizontal dimension of a
22:21
10
22:22
mm let's move
22:26
it now now the inner and outer diameter
22:30
is 50 and
22:36
70 so select the
22:41
diameter and give the diameter of uh
22:45
50 select the
22:52
outer select on diameter and give it
22:56
70
23:00
now this uh rib thickness we will give
23:03
in a top
23:08
view 10
23:15
mm whole to whole distance is of
23:19
50 so we will select this two Center
23:22
points you the vertical dimension of a
23:26
50 and this holes to this hole is a
23:31
90 so select uh these two Center
23:37
points you the horizontal
23:39
dimension of
23:45
90 total Extrusion is of 60
23:48
mm so I will select this line and give
23:52
the vertical dimension of a
23:56
60 and we can also show this 60
23:59
Dimension here as
24:10
well
24:12
now we will see the whole diameter is of
24:16
four
24:20
quantity so select this
24:26
diameter 10
24:30
so this diameter of a four quantity so
24:33
select on the
24:35
diameter Dimension and uh go to the view
24:40
tab in data Tab and if you scroll down
24:43
you will see here format
24:45
specifications where I added the
24:51
4X better to add in a small X so this is
24:56
the four quantity
25:05
see now let's see what is the remaining
25:09
to
25:12
give so here you can see that uh we have
25:15
uh given the
25:18
dimensions as we have on our drawing now
25:22
one more thing which we will insert here
25:24
is uh isometric view so we will uh click
25:28
on the body switch to the isometric view
25:33
body is already selected and now we will
25:36
click here insert
25:38
view go to the
25:44
page so here is our isometric
25:49
view now we will move
25:53
it now we will come to the title block
25:58
so we will uh give some name let's see I
26:03
give it
26:05
name bearing
26:08
block it is just a temporary
26:11
name
26:13
subtitle I can give any
26:17
subtitles for
26:20
uh
26:22
project XY
26:26
Z now here author name you can give like
26:30
I give my name Mech
26:33
Nexus creation
26:35
date let's say
26:38
give
26:40
01 08
26:44
2024 check date you can give your
26:47
company name
26:50
scale like I give my scale 1 to
26:55
1 weight of the part version sheet so
27:00
this is how you can fill the title
27:03
block
27:05
now we can simply click on the toggle
27:08
frame and off the frame so this is how
27:12
to create a drawing in freead with the
27:15
help of tech draw workbench I will uh
27:19
provide this uh Source model and this 2D
27:22
drawing in a video description so
27:24
anybody can uh download it and practice
27:28
it so this is all about this tutorial
