  2. 3.1 Pro / E Part Modeling Foundation • In Pro / E system, features are the most basic unit of design and operation, while basic features are the basis and carrier of other features in the part model. • When modeling a part, it is necessary to conduct an in-depth feature analysis of the model, find out the part model is composed of what kind of features , define the shape of each feature and its relative relationship, and then model according to the primary and secondary features in a certain order.

  3. 3.1.1 Features and Classification • 1. Solid features, surface features and datum features • 2. Basic features and engineering features • Basic feature: the first entity feature created during modeling; Engineering features: other features established later than basic features. Engineering features include sketch and placement features. • 3. Sketch - type features and placement - type features • Sketched features: features that can only be generated by drawing two-dimensional sections during feature creation; Placement Features: Some parameterized features defined inside the system. Solid features Cut 1 Hole1 Cut 2 Solid features Hole 2 Reference features Rotor body Figure 3-2 Classification of basic features and engineering features Figure 3-1 Types of Features

  4. 3.1.2 Definition of sketch plane and reference plane When sketching a section, you must define a sketch plane and a reference plane, and the reference plane must be perpendicular to the sketch plane. Sketch plane refers to the two-dimensional plane used to draw the section. The reference plane refers to the two-dimensional plane used to determine the placement orientation of the sketch plane, that is, to assist positioning of the sketch plane. Sketch When entering sketch mode, the system will automatically adjust the viewing angle to a plain plane drawing state, that is, place the sketch plane parallel to the screen along the specified sketch view direction. Agreement on Normal Direction of Reference Plane: The positive direction of the reference plane is indicated by the brown side of the plane, and the gray side represents its negative direction.

  6. 3.1.4 Setting of Model Units Two methods of setting model units: use the system configuration file config. pro to preset, that is, select tools - > options to set the option values of pro _ unit _ length and pro _ unit _ mass; Select [Edit] → [Setup] → [Units] to temporarily set up the unit system of the model. (1) Convert Dimensions: Perform unit changes at the same size, i.e. the part model size (volume) remains unchanged and only the dimension values are scaled. (2) Interpreting Dimensions: Perform unit changes according to the same dimensions, that is, keep the dimension value of the part model unchanged while the model size changes.

  8. 3.1.6 The General Principle of Basic Feature Generation Four basic feature creation methods: Extrude: The feature section grows or cuts out along its vertical direction, with equal section properties. Revolve: The feature section revolves around a center line and has an axisymmetric property. Sweep: A section is swept along a trajectory line and has equal section properties in the orthogonal direction of the trajectory. Blend: A series of sections ( more than two ) are connected in sequence.

  9. 3.2 Stretching • Stretching feature refers to the volume of surface, solid body or thin body that the feature section grows vertically along the normal direction of its extruding plane. It is suitable for constructing equal section features. Feature section Figure 3-12 Extrusion

  16. 3.3 Rotation Rotational feature refers to a curved surface, solid body or thin body swept out by rotating a characteristic cross section around a central axis at a specific angle, which has an axisymmetric characteristic (i.e., the cross sections on both sides obtained are in a symmetrical state when cutting along the central axis). Feature cross-section Figure 3-13 Revolve

  17. 3.3.1General flow of Rotating Operation 1. Set the rotation feature type ( 1 ) Click the rotate button or [Insert] → [Rotate]. ( 2 ) Set as solid or surface rotation in the rotation dashboard. 2. Draw the characteristic section ( 1 ) Slide the panel up in the open position to sketch the section. ( 2 ) Define the sketch plane, reference plane and its direction in the sketch dialog box. ( 3 ) Enter the sketch mode and specify the appropriate sketch reference. ( 4 ) Draw or transfer the section as the current characteristic section, and then finish. 3. Set the parameters of the rotation feature ( 1 ) Set the rotation angle in the rotation feature control panel. ( 2 ) Set cutting feature's material removal area or thickness and direction of the thin body. ( 3 ) Perform feature preview or feature generation and change the viewing angle to see the model effect.

  19. Requirements for sketching sections when creating rotating features: ( 1 ) A centerline must be established in the section as the axis of rotation. ( 2 ) If the feature is a solid body, its cross section must be closed. ( 3 ) All section elements must be located on the same side of the axis of rotation. ( 4 ) If there are two or more centrelines in the section, the system defaults the first centreline as the axis of rotation. Therefore, when sketching a section of a rotating feature, it is necessary to develop the habit of drawing the center line (feature rotation axis) first. • 3.3.3 Section of Rotating Feature

  20. The system provides three ways to define the rotation angle: • 3.3.4 The Angular Definition of the Rotation Feature Figure 3-53 Angle define of revolve feature Angle define of revolve features, functions and descriptions Form 3-3 Type of angle defines Functions and descriptions According the designated value to crate cross-section from sketch plane to side According the half of designated value to crate symmetric revolve feature from sketch plane Revolve the feature up to the selected object, but the ending surface must include rotation axis Functions and descriptions

  23. 3.4 Scanning Scanning refers to the movement of a two-dimensional section along a plane or space trajectory to form a curved surface or solid feature. When you create a scan feature, there are seven types: Stretch, Sheet Stretch, Cut, Sheet Cut, Surface, Surface Trim, and Thin Surface Trim. The scanning feature is composed of two elements: trajectory and cross section. The cross section always does not change during scanning and is perpendicular to the selected trajectory. Scan Figure 3-63 Type of scan feature created

  24. 3.4.1 The attributes of the scan feature ( 1 ) The trajectory is closed and the section is closed or open. [Add Inn FCS (Increase Internal Factors)]: Automatically add internal top and bottom surfaces to form internal entities, limited to open sections; [ no inn FCS ( without internal factors ) ]: no internal surface is added, only limited to closed section. ( 2 ) The trajectory is open (and one end is connected to the existing entity) and the section must be closed. [Merge Ends]: Automatically extend scan features and merge scan endpoints into neighboring entities; [Free Ends] Scanning endpoints do not connect with neighboring entities. Figure 3-64 Attribute settings for closed trajectory Figure 3-67 Add internal factors Figure 3-64 No internal factors (a) Merge ends (b) Free ends Figure 3-67 Attribute settings for open trajectory Figure 3-68 Different Effects of Two Attribute Settings Figure 3-66 No internal factors

  25. 3.4.2 The general flow of scanning operations ( taking entity characteristics as an example ) 1. Specify the type of scan feature creation Select [Insert] → [Sweep] → [Protrusion] 2. Define the scan trajectory ( 1 ) Select Sketch Traj to sketch the scan trajectory, or Select Traj to select an existing curve or edge chain as the scan trajectory. ( 2 ) Define the sketch plane, reference plane and its direction. ( 3 ) Enter sketch mode to draw the required trajectory. 3. Define attributes and sections of scan features ( 1 ) Open tracks and connect with existing feature entities: Merge Ends or Free Ends. ( 2 ) Closed trajectory: add internal factor ( Add Inn FCS ) or no internal factor (No Inn Fcs ). 4. Define the section of the scan feature ( 1 ) Automatically enter the sketch mode and draw the section of the scanning feature. ( 2 ) Specify the removal side of the scanned notch material. ( 3 ) Perform the creation of scanning features.

  26. 3.4.3 How to Create Scan Track Two methods of definition: sketch traj and select traj ( 1 ) [ Sketch Traj ]: Sketch plane and reference plane need to be set in order to draw the outline of the trajectory, and the trajectory is limited to two-dimensional curves; ( 2 ) [ Select Traj ]: Select an existing curve or solid edge chain as the trajectory, which can be a three-dimensional curve. Using the existing curve as the scanning trajectory, the system will ask the direction of the horizontal reference plane, that is, the upward direction of the plane where the scanning section is located ( Y - axis positive direction ).
