1 METBD 110 Hands-On 17 Dimensioning Sketches Why: Recall, Pro/E can capture design intent through the use of geometric constraints, dimensional constraints, and parametric relations. Dimensional constraints are used to describe the SIZE and LOCATION of individual geometric shapes. Dimensions in a part model or sketch can be changed anytime and the model will update automatically. Learning Objectives: Proper way to add dimensions (linear, radius, angle, etc.) Proper way to edit dimensions. Proper way to scale dimensions. Performance Criteria: Demonstrate the ability to add dimensions properly. Demonstrate the ability to edit dimensions. Demonstrate the ability to scale dimensions. Resources in addition to Previous Reading Assignments, Hands-On Web Sites, Other Students, Class Notes, and Instructor: Past web print out Sketch File Manipulation for printing sketch with label. (Video Available) SI Tutor Dimensioning video in Angel Plan Hands-On 17A: Follow instructions starting on page 2. Hands-On 17B: Follow instructions starting on page 7. Critical Thinking Questions: 1. When initially sketching geometry, what s more important to sketch to exact dimensions or try to capture the shape of your sketch? Why? 2. What can you do to make sure your sketch is approximately to scale to avoid regen (regeneration) errors if a dimension is changed? 3. How does the Lock Scale option work under the Modify Dimension command? 8/20/ hands-on-17.doc 1 of 9

2 Hands-On 17A: 1. Start a new sketch. (I.e., Smith-HO-17A) 2. Create the geometry shown below. Remember, for the initial geometry creation focus on capturing shape proportionally, not to exact size. Notice the dimensions and constraints are gray. 3. Once the shape has been sketched, strong constraints and dimensions may be added. The SMART student will think dimensioning rules here. Doing so will save a ton of time when editing the dimensions in the drawing file. This dimension is okay. It is in the proper location following dimensioning rules and the extension lines do not overlap any object lines. When dimensioning, you do not want extension lines to overlap the object lines. For example, if you double clicked on the dimension (circled in the figure below), made it strong, then dragged it into position beside the 1.323, the extension lines would cross over object lines. This will cause you more work in the drawing file. To avoid this, add a new dimension by selecting the endpoints and placing the dimension, using the middle mouse button, beside the Notice the gray constraint L1. Constraints do not print on drawing files, so there would be no way for anyone to know the length of this line. Therefore a dimension must be added removing the weak constraint. Since the line is vertical and the dimension should be located to the right of the view, it is faster to click on the line, rather than the endpoints, and then place the dimension. a. Make sure your dimensions are placed similar to the ones in the figure below. ALL dimensions MUST be strong (yellow). Your numbers will not be the same as the figure below, but the placement should be on the appropriate side of the view. Notice the yellow does not overlap any of the object lines. 8/20/ hands-on-17.doc 2 of 9

3 While your dimensions should be placed on the appropriate side of the view, do NOT waste your time aligning and spacing the dimensions. When imported into the drawing file, the dimension spacing will change. In other words, aligning these two dimensions in the part file is a waste of time. 4. Edit each dimension by double clicking on the numerical value, type in the new value and press the Enter key. 8/20/ hands-on-17.doc 3 of 9

4 5. Design Change: Modify the sketch by adding the three radii shown below. Some dimensions will be deleted and gray dimensions and/or constraints will be added. Fix, edit, make strong, etc., the dimensions and constraints. (Hints below in step 5.a.) When finished with your sketch it should match the one shown below. a. The 5.00 dimension is to the apparent intersection of the two lines. To add this dimension, you must first create a point at the intersection of the two lines. i. Using the Point icon place the point at the intersection of the two lines. Watch for the gray constraints. ii. Make the constraints strong by using the collinear constraint. (If the collinear constraint is already showing (weak), select gray symbol, right mouse click and select strong. If the weak collinear constraint is not shown, select the collinear icon, the point you added, and the angled line.) Weak constraint means the computer may decide to move the point out of alignment with the line. Strong constraint means this point will always be aligned to this line, unless you choose otherwise. 8/20/ hands-on-17.doc 4 of 9

5 6. Another design change: The finished part must be ½ the original size. Change all dimensions simultaneously by checking Lock Scale option in the modify dimension command. a. Make sure all dimensions are selected. You may select them one by one or window them. b. Check the Lock Scale box this MUST be done BEFORE you edit a value. c. Change any dimension to half its value and select ok. Since Lock Scale is checked, all dimensions will update to half there original value as shown below: 8/20/ hands-on-17.doc 5 of 9

6 7. Modify dimensions to produce geometry shown below: 8. Make sure you don t have any gray constraints or dimensions. 9. Save file. 10. Print sketch with label. (IMPORTANT: This is NOT done by using the text feature to add your name. Refer to past web print out Sketch File Manipulation for printing sketch with label.) 11. Write your name and section under your userid. 12. Turn the print out into your instructor. 8/20/ hands-on-17.doc 6 of 9

7 Hands-On 17B: 1. Start a new sketch. (I.e., Smith-HO-17B) 2. Create the geometry shown below. Remember, for the initial geometry creation focus on capturing shape proportionally, not to exact size. Notice the dimensions and constraints are gray. 3. Once the shape has been sketched, dimensions and constraints may be made strong. The SMART student will think dimensioning rules here. Doing so will save a ton of time when editing the dimensions in the drawing file. If you drag the overall width dimension above the front view, the extension lines will overlap the object lines. It will be easier in the long run to create a new overall dimension selecting the endpoints shown in red. Double click on the circle for diameter of the hole (single click will give you the radius. 8/20/ hands-on-17.doc 7 of 9

8 4. Edit dimensions to proper size. 5. The figure above follows all the views, except for grouping by features. This is okay, but looks confusing. The figure below follows all of the rules, except staying between front and top views and front and right side views. Which set of dimensions is easier to read? 8/20/ hands-on-17.doc 8 of 9

9 a. Yes, the dimensions grouped by features are easier to read. If you drag the dimensions to the other side of the view, the witness lines will overlap the object lines. Therefore you need to delete them and insert new ones. 6. The size of the hole may be dragged to its new location. 7. Make sure you don t have any gray constraints or dimensions. 8. Save file. 9. Print sketch with label. 10. Write your name and section under your userid. 11. Turn the print out into your instructor. 8/20/ hands-on-17.doc 9 of 9
