Objectives
After completing this lesson, you will be able to:
Create unconsumed sketches and geometry to define a frame skeleton.
Use the Frame Generator panel and use its Insert tool to define frame
members.
Use the Miter, Trim-Extend, and Notch tools to refine frame member
intersections.
Create a part within an assembly.
Use the Isolate tool.
Create an adaptive part.
Completed Exercise
2. Create the following sketch. Note that the two angled lines have an equal
constraint applied.
The Frame Generator panel contains tools for creating and refining frame
members.
Note the files being created in the Create New Frame dialog box. The
frame itself is saved into Frame 0001.iam. The frame skeleton is placed in
a part file called Skeleton00001.ipt.
Note: Had the Merge option been selected, only one part file would have been
created. The Merge option has the advantage of automatically applying miters;
however, the frame would exist as one part file rather than ten. Having distinct
part files can be useful when it comes to creating drawings for each member.
3. Look closely at the intersections between the cross braces and the base
frame. The cross members extend into the outer frame members.
Note: To identify the frame member, drag the mouse over the members in
the part browser until the required one is highlighted in the viewport.
6. Apply a colinear constraint between the sketch edges and the projected
edges.
4. Trim the diagonal tubes where they meet the upper frame members.
