INTRODUCTION

Pro-e wildfire is the leading product development solution for any manufacturing industry. The software is developed and supported by the parametric technology corporation (PTC), based in United States.

PRO-E � DESIGN

� MANUFACTURING

� ANALYSIS

� CAD EXCHANGE

� DRAWING

� SIMULATION

Pro-e tools are user friendly. The term “Parametric” means that design operations that are captured, can be stored as they take place. They can be used effectively in the future for modifying and editing the design. These types of modeling help in faster and easier modifications of design.

System requirements:- 1 – Microsoft Windows XP/Vista

2 – 512 MB Ram

3 – 1.2 GB Disk Space

4 5000 MHz CPU fan

5 – NTFS file system

Modeling

Creating Assemblies

Capturing Design Intent

When any set of physical properties determine the behavior of an object, it can be defined as a parametric. This type of design allows us to gather a set of information about the design like mass properties, a drawing or a base model.

As our philosophy determines our life, the modeling philosophy of Pro-E includes:

1. Feature Based Modeling: Here a set of features represents a solid model.

2. Creation of assembly: Here a set of parts represents an assembly.

3. Capturing design intent: The most advanced and effective way of implementing our engineering knowledge successfully into a solid model is a primary duty of parametric modeling.

Unleash the source of knowledge bank by TAP (Think, Analyze and Plan) action. This will enable you to produce a well formulated design process.

The entire design process comprises of below mentioned flow chart.

Analysis

Machining

Applications

Types of Features:

1. Base Feature:

- A set of datum planes comprises of a base feature.

- All further geometries will be referenced with respect to base features.

- On changing base feature, the entire model geometry will change.

2. Datum Feature:

- Lines, axes, curves and points are considered as datum features.

- They provide sketching plane and contour references for sketched and referenced features.

- Volume and mass properties are absent in datum feature.

3. Sketched Feature:

- Extrude, Revolve, Blend or Sweep creates sketched feature.

- This feature results in addition or removal of the material.

4. Referenced Feature:

- Round, Holes, Shells and so on are considered as referenced feature.

Part Design:

The accomplishments of a part design are:

1. Define a base feature

2. Define and redefine construction and base features.

3. Modification of dimensional values.

4. Embedded design intent into the model using tolerance specifications and dimensioning schemes.

5. Creating pictorial and shaded views of the components.

6. Creating part families.

7. Perform mass properties analysis and clearance checks.

8. List part, feature, layer and other model information.

9. Measure and calculate model features.

10. Create detail drawings of a part.

Other important things to remember are parent child relationship, capturing design intent, implicit relationships, patterns, explicit relations and family tables. These points are explained in detail further.

Assembly Design:

Set of parts and sub-assembly come together to form an assembly.

The accomplishments of an assembly design are:

1. Simplified representation helps in simplifying the view of a large assembly.

2. Placement of a component part can be done automatically or manually.

3. An exploded view of the assembly gives a detailed view of the collective parts and sub assemblies.

4. Clearance check and mass properties analysis can be performed.

5. Dimensional values of the parts can be modified.

6. Assembly relations are created between component parts.

7. Automatic interchange of parts is possible.

8. Parts can be created in assembly mode.

9. Documentation drawing of the assembly is created.

Detail Drawing Creation:

Drawing can be made of all parametric design models. There is an association in between the drawing and the model. Any dimensional changes or deletion made to the drawing or a model is reflected in both of them.

The accomplishments of a drawing creation are:

1. Add views of the part or assembly

2. Show existing dimensions

3. Incorporate additional driven or reference dimensions

4. Create notes on the drawing

5. Display views of additional parts or assemblies

6. Add sheets to the drawing

7. Create draft entities on the drawing

8. Balloon components on an assembly drawing

9. Create an associative BOM
