NX Unit 2

This section builds on the concepts from Unit 1, guiding you through the process of creating a model from a working drawing. You’ll learn how design intent influences the structure of a model and gain practical experience with the drafting workflow. Additionally, this section will introduce you to the master model concept, providing a clearer understanding of its role in the modeling process.

Key terms:

Assignment: Step Block

Create a model of the step block as defined in the working drawing below. Remember that the rule for this class is that the dimensions intentionally reflect the design intent. Your model must respect this design intent. Use the hole feature, not a sketch, to create the thru hole.

Assignment: Head Gasket Drawing

Create a working drawing of the head gasket.

  • Create a model of the Head Gasket
  • Drafting workflow video
  • Use this model to create a working drawing
    • You MUST use the master model approach
    • Turn in a PDF print of your drawing
    • Use ASME standard dimensioning styles
