INTRODUCTION TO PRO/ENGINEER

We are in a sophisticated world, where good design is good business. Delivering timely
results in the digital medium is an absolute must for success. Designing complex aesthetics or
engineered shapes is tough work and finding a tool, which can provide exact design intent can be
even tougher.

Pro/engineer is the world leading 3D product development solution. It enables designers

and engineers deliver more innovative and appealing products to the market.

The advanced modeling capabilities of pro/engineer make it significantly superior over

other CAD packages. This type of interactive capability to optimize a design adds a new level to
the design and modeling experience.

Pro/engineer is the world’s leading 3D product development solution, which is developed

by PTC-parametric Technology Corporation-a US based company. This software enables de-
signers and engineers to bring better products to the market faster.

Pro/engineer takes care of the entire product development process, from creative concept
through detailed product definition to serviceability.

Pro/engineer delivers measurable value to manufacturing companies of all sizes and in all
industries.

Pro/engineer is used in a vast range of industries, from manufacturing of rockets to com-

puter peripherals. With more than 100,000 seats installed worldwide, many CAD users are ex-
posed to Pro/engineerand enjoy using Pro/engineer for its power and capability.

In order to meet the requirements of large and small industries PTC has developed a range
of products which includes

 Pro/engineer: a solid modeler

Pro/engineer is a solid modeler – it develops models as solids, allowing you to work in a

three-dimensional environment. InPro/engineer the models have volumes and surface areas. As a
solid modeling tool, pro/engineer
 Feature-based
 Associative
 Parametric

Feature Based

Pro/engineer is feature based. Geometry is composed of a series of easily understandable

features. A feature is the smallest building block in a model. Pro/engineer allows building a
model feature one at a time. As you construct your model feature by feature you choose your
building blocks as well as the order you create them in, thus capturing your design intent. Is the
motive, the all-driving force, behind every feature creation. Simple features make us individual
parts as wells the overall model flexible and reliable.

Parametric

Pro/engineer is parametric. It is driven by parameters or variable dimensions. The geome-

try can be easily changed by modifying dimensions. Here features are interrelated. Modifications
of a single propagate changes in other features as well, thus preserving design intent. A relation-
ship, known as a parent/child relationship between features when on feature references another.

Associative

Pro/engineer models are often combinations of various parts, assemblies, drawings and
other objects. Pro/engineer makes all these entities fully associative, that means if you make
changes at a certain level those changes propagate to all the levels. For eg, if you change dimen-
sions on a drawing the change will be reflected in the associated part.

Main window:

When we start pro/engineer, the main window opens on our desktop. We can create our
designs in this window. The four distinct elements of the windows are:

 Pull-down menu
 Tool bar
 Display area
 Message area

Pull-down area

Similar to anyof the windows application pro/engineer also has pull-down menu. The
pro/engineer pull-down menus are valid in all modules of pro/engineer.

The menu bar, which is a part of the pro/engineer main window, contains menus with op-
tions for crafting, saving and modifying models. It also contains menus with options to set our
pro/engineer environment and configuration options.

Tool bar

The pro/engineer tool bar contains icons of frequently used options from the pull-down
menu. This toolbar gives us quick access to the standard set of options that are available in pull
down menu. We can customize it by adding or removing sets of tools. When we activate any
changes to the tool bar, they will be applicable for all open windows.

Each model tree item contains an icon that reflects its object type, for eg, assembly, part,
feature or datum plane (also feature). The icon can also show the display or regeneration status
for a feature, part or assembly for example suppressed or unregenerate.

General procedure to create geometry

To start creating a part that needs to be extruded, you must start with create

New object button → pick part → give an appropriate name to the part → OK → start
with feature →create → solid (default) → protrusion → extrude (default) → done → one or
both sides → pick a sketch plane (default) → on direction menu, you can choose the command
flip,if you want to reverse the direction or click on okay → choose the default unless otherwise
requested → at this point you will see the sketcher window. The sketcher is a powerful tool for
creating two dimensional shapes.
 General procedure to create a cut

To create a cut in a part, the following steps must be taken:

Feature → create → cut → extrude → solid (default) → done → one side(default) → however,
if the cut needs to be done on both sides then → click on both sides → done → setup new (de-
fault) → plane (default) pick ( select the surface that must be cut) → setup new (default) → on
direction menu, you can choose command flip, if you want to reverse the direction or click on
OKAY → choose the default unless otherwise requested choose your references from the refer-
ence box (it helps you to locate the exact location of cut) → after choosing the geometry of your
cut with the correct location and dimension, click on check mark button on geometry tool bar in
order to continue to next step → click on OK button if the direction of cut is ok. Otherwise flip
the direction of cut and then click on ok button with the next menu, choose the depth of the cut (if
the options on the tool bar menu are not one of your choices,then click button→(to specify the
depth in the direction that you want) →enter the depth value of your cut and click on check mark
button→click on preview button of the mouse and the move the mouse around→if the cut is OK,
then click on OK button of the box. You have completed your cut at this point.

General procedures to create geometry using revolve command:

To start creating a part that needs to be extruded, you must start with

Create new object button→pickpart→give an appropriate name to the part→ OK→start

with feature→create solid(default) →plane(default) →pick→on direction menu,you can choose
the default unless otherwise requested→choose your references from the reference box→click
on create line button and→pick center line and choose the axis of rotation draw your geometry
off of centerline click on check mark(continue with the current geometry) the menu manager
will ask for the amount of rotation(choose 360 degree if you need complete rotation of your 2D
object) →click on preview button for reviewing your revolved geometry to preview the part
→press the ctrl button on the keyboard and middle button of the mouse and then move the
mouse around→ if the revolved geometry is OK, button of the box.

General procedure to create a hole:

Feature→create →hole in the menu box, enter the diameter of hole→for the depth choose
thru→all pick a surface for primary reference with the appropriate distances→pick the check
mark button to complete your command→ click on preview button for review you cut to
→preview the part press the ctrl button on the keyboard and middle of the mouse and then move
the mouse around.

General procedure to create a geometry using mirror command:

For symmetrical geometry, we can easily create a duplicate of a section by using mirror
command. Feature→copy→mirror→select (default) →dependent (any change in the first geom-
etry will automatically change the mirror of it as well) →done→you will be asked to select the
geometry that you want to create the mirror of it→select the geometry→done→you will be
asked to select aplane or to create a datum plane to mirror about→select the Plane→done→a
new geometry which is the mirrored geometry will appear on the opposite side.
General procedure to add rounds:

To add rounds(remove material to the edges in order to remove shape edges)to the edges,
the following steps should be followed

Feature→create→solid→roundsimple→done→constantedge→chain→done→one by
one→you can pick all visible edges on the geometry that you like to have round edges→after
you round edges→after you select all edges→click on done select→select done in the check
menu →enter the specific radius of the round in the radius type menu→click on the check
mark→click on the review to approve your work→click on ok to finalize your work.

General procedure to add chamfer:

To add chamfer,follow the following steps

Feature → create→solid→chamfer→edge→45*d, d*d. →choose your chamfer dimension

and click on check mark→pick the edges that you like to chamfer→done→select done refs click
on the review to approve your work→click on OK to finalize your work.

General procedure to create patterns:

In order to repeat an entity for numerous times, you need to use the pattern command.
However, the pattern features do not have to be identical copies, but can change in size. There
are three types of patterns that vary over the size,references and intersectionof instances. The
three types of patterns are created the same way and are as follows:

Identical patterns-have the same size and the same reference surface, but cannot intersect.
Varying pattern- can vary in size and use different surfaces, but cannot intersect.
General pattern-can vary in size, use different references, intersect each other.
Note:your pattern leader is very important part of construction pattern.
General procedure to create sweeps:

Sweeps is one of the most complicated features that we review in this section.We are able
to create a feature by using an open or closed sweep along a trajectory.

Feature→create→protrusion→sweep\solid\done\→sketch traj→pick front plane for sketching

plane→ default →sketch a rectangular figure.Notice the arrow starting at the left of trajectory.
This arrow shows the starting point and direction of sweep.(do not forget to align the left of tra-
jectory with the base block) →done→no inn FCs(no inner faces) →now move to second step to
create the cross section of your feature→done preview the sweep→OK.

General procedure to create helical sweeps:

The helical sweeps will enable you to design different type of spring. The basic elements
of the helical sweep are “profile” and “axis” which will define a section that moves up in the di-
rection of profile and round the axis. Revolve around axis is 360 degrees. The number of turns
(distance traveled along the axis is on completed revolution) is the main attributes for different
geometry are as follow:
 Pitch: constant or variable

Section:orientation(thru axis or norm to traj)

Direction right handed or left handed.

Constant profile and constant pitch:

Feature → create → solid → protrusion → advanced solid done → helical sweep→done

constant thru axis right handed→done.

Pick from datum as the sketching plane and top datum plane as the reference plane.

Using helical sweeps to create a screw:

Start defining a solid protrusion. Choose fea-

ture→create→solid→protrusion→revolvesolid→done→oneside→done→ pick the sketching
plane→then sketch the following feature and make sure to place center line on axis of rotation
with 360 degrees rotation.

After completion of our geometry for the screw, then we start with the following step:

Feature →create→solid cut→ advanced solid→done→helical sweep done →constant thru

axis right handed→done. Pick front datum plane as the sketching plane and ok the direction (in-
ward direction) and default. Select your references as shown.

From sketching menu select create line where you are going to create the cut(you will be
able to see an arrow from the beginning of the line). Place a center line on the vertical ax-
is(center of screw).create the type of pattern of cut for the screw on the opposite side as shown.

Pick the check mark and review the created screw. It must look like the figure below.

General procedure to create blends:

Blend is a feature that allows a very smooth transition between specified cross sections.
Blend can be straight parallel or smooth rotation. We start with create→solid→protrusion
blend/solid/done→ parallel/regular sec→ sketch sec→donestraight(if the blend is going to be
straight) or smooth (if the blend is going to be a curved blend) →done.

Note: Each section is sketched separately.

Pick the sketching plane and sketch the first section such as a square with dimensions 10.
After completion of the first sketch, pick sketch from toolbar then pick feature toll and toggle
section from the menu. The second sketch is a rectangular with dimensions 3 by 2.after comple-
tion; it will ask you for the depth. Give a depth of 20 and preview and finally ok for completion.

RESULT:

Thus we studied about PRO/ENGINEER.

 STUDY OF FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS IN ANSYS

AIM:

To Study about Finite element analysis in ANSYS.

FINITE ELEMENT ANALYSIS (FEA) USING ANSYS:

Finite element analysis is a method of prediction the behavior of real structure under
specified loads and displacement condition. The finite element modeling is a Generalization of
one displacement or matrix method of structural analysis to two and three dimensional prob-
lems. The basic concept of FEA is considered to be an assembly of discrete pieces called “el-
ement” they are connected together at a finite number of point (or) nodes. The finite element is
a geometrically simplified representation of a small part of the physical structure. As an exam-
ple, consider the analysis of the column of machine tool. The column is shown with its base
fixed and concentrated forces applied at the end of the column. The finite element model is
made up of quadrilateral element, triangular element ad rod Tube element. In limited element
analysis the stiffness of each element is calculated and Global stiffness matrix is calculated.
Using the stiffness matrix we can define the load Deflection relationship. Now we can apply
the load can be calculated from the known Deflection using Hook’s law.

STEP – 1: Define node element for the given part is shown is fig (a) and the finite model of the

part is shown in fig (b). The comer point (1 to 14) in fig (b) is called as nodes. The element is

numbered from 1 to 7 and inter connected in the model by reference to the Nodes. The nodes

and element together establish the approximate finite element model of the Part.

STEP – 2: Form individual stiffness matrix for each element.

STEP – 3: Assembly the stiffness matrix and analysis the structure for a given set of

boundary condition.

STEP – 4: Modify the problem in the light of the result of the analysis and proceed with the

next iteration.

STEP – 5: Continue the process till an optimum design is evolv

TYPE OF ANALYSIS:

1) STATIC AND DYANAMIC ANALYSIS:

A Structure model created can be used to predict the behavior of real structure under the
action of external force. We are measured in terms of Deflection and stress. If the response is
static and if loads are steady then the Analysis is static. When load very with the analysis is
called dynamic Analysis.

2) LINEAR AND NON – LINEAR ALALYSIS:

If the properties of structure such as stiffness remain constant during the entire analysis,
these are called as linear analysis. If these properties are varying the analysis of linear is called
as nonlinear.

3) THERMAL ANALYSIS:

Finite element analysis can be used for several design and problem involving
Thermal stresses, thermal displacement, heat flow, temperature distribution etc..

4) FLUID FLOW ANALYSIS:

Finite element can solve several types of fluid flow problems.

5) FIELD ANALYSIS:

Problem in magnetic and acoustic can be solved by finite element analysis.

PRINCIPLES USED IN FEA:

Using the principal of minimum energy, a displacement function or is chosen in an El-

ement to obtain a correlation of nodal displacements. A set of linear algebraic equation Can be
formed; since equilibrium is imposed is imposed at every node where unknown Are the nodal
displacements. The stress and strain with in element can then be determined from this nodal
displacement.

ANSYS:

Ansys has comprehensive graphical user interference (GUI) that gives users easy Inter-
active access to program function, command, documentation and reference material. An initia-
tive menu systems help user to navigate through the ANSYS program. User can impute using
a mouse, a keyboard, or a combination.
ANSYS HELP ENGINEERS TO PERFORM THE FOLLOWINGST TASKS:

 Build computer models or transfer cad models for structure, products or

Systems.

 Apply operating load or other design performance condition.

 Study the physical responses such as stress level, temperature distribution or

The impact of electromagnetic fields.

 Optimize the design early in at development process earlier to reduce

Production costs.

 Do prototype testing in environments where otherwise could be undesirable or

Impossible.
