AutoCAD Mechanical Projects
This page contains links to projects created in Autodesks program AutoCad. In these drawings below, different techniques and skills were applied to generate the drawings that both shows details and represents the part/project. Things learned doing these drawings were as follows;
Creating 3d objects using solid shapes in the program or creating profiles and extruding or revolving three dimensional shapes from them.
Dimensioning the parts to ANSI standards (American National Standards Institute). ANSI sets guidelines in the manufacturing industry to standardize procedures in dimensioning and tolerancing. This creates a procedure that ensures tolerances and measurements meets the clients specifications regardless of who manufactures it.
Even though Inventor helps to reduce the time in creating such drawings, industry standards and practices exist and should be followed. This emphasizes the importance of proper skills being developed and taught in an educational program.
