A Brief Introduction to Engineering Graphics This set of slides is designed to be read as a graphics resource. Can take excerpts for presentations. Bring: fastener/tools examples,, big real engineering drawing, an object to spin, LEGOs for tolerance section, collection of shafts and holes for tolerancing, See Notes pages 10/2011 Add: Get sample of a real engg dwg from Toro, Tennant. Along with photos of the part. 10/2009 Add: Types of drawings (detail, assembly, exploded view assembly, BOM; see Meyer et al., Technical Graphics, Chapter 9). For required text, consider Technical Graphics, Meyer et al. See lecture notes for OSU course http://www.feh.osu.edu/materials/autumn_2008.htm 10/2007 Add: tolerance stackup; show a part w/ pin mating with a hole…and all the things that could go wrong; offset section. Add features sections. Add material on hole and threading types. Intro: Eng graphics important for meche students to know…but not intellectually demanding. Basics here, details in any eng graphics text. Will Durfee & Tim Kowalewski Department of Mechanical Engineering University of Minnesota
Opening comments Engineering graphics is the method for documenting a design Mechanical engineering students must be familiar with standards of engineering graphics as it is expected in industry This set of slides introduces some of the basics, but is not comprehensive For more, see Engineering Graphics section on the Resources page of the course ME2011 website Any engineering graphics textbook
Documenting a part requires... 1. SHAPE 2. SIZE 3. MATERIAL 4. TOLERANCE 5. FINISH To fully document a part requires all of these What are examples?
Engineering drawings Universal language Conventions (drawing grammar) simplify communication; your drawing is at risk if you defy CAD packages make formal drawing easy…if you follow the conventions The machinist will laugh at you behind your back if you show up with a non-standard drawing Graphics is all about how to transmit this info using the conventional language. Buck these conventions at your peril…The machinist will laugh at you and your boss will relegate you to fetching coffee CAD packages automate this. Nobody uses a T-square and pencil any more
Multiview drawings Top Right Front TOP RIGHT SIDE FRONT Views must line up Multi-view is an artifact of the 2-D world. Perhaps in 25 years it will be gone. But for now, you must know This is 3rd angle projection, the “unfolding the box” or “you walk around to the right side”. Rest of world uses 1st angle projection where the right side view would be to the left of the front view. “Roll the object on its edge” or “you stay still and the object rotates”. See Betroline for details. RIGHT SIDE FRONT “3rd angle projection”

Six Principle views: obey layout Great way to get relegated to making coffee.
Basic lines (the “alphabet of lines”) Object line Hidden line Center line The “alphabet of lines” ANSI standards for these Dimension line
HIDDEN LINES Show internal features or holes
CENTER LINES Long-short dashed lines showing lines of symmetry and axes of cylinders and holes
Interpreting Center Lines Long-short dashed lines showing lines of symmetry and axes of cylinders and holes Enough Info? Enough Info?
COULD BE THIS... Be careful when interpreting center lines. Do not assume axial symmetry
Centerlines imply symmetry, OR THIS Centerlines imply symmetry, NOT revolution per se
HERE, ONLY 2 VIEWS NEEDED (Correct drawing) If circularly symmetric, drawing should tell you. If it is circularly symmetric, only need 2 views.
Find The Mistakes! AT least 8 mistakes
Find The Mistakes! Top view not on top; inside circle in top view not solid Bottom view not on bottom Hidden line used instead of center line Centerline in right view does not extend beyond part; Right view not aligned correctly More views than necessary No additional info like dimensions, materials, etc.
FRONT Here’s a 3-D object that has to be represented in a set of 2-D drawings. One must be careful about the conversion.
FRONT 5 mistakes CORRECT DRAWING FIND THE MISTAKES!

DIMENSIONING 1. SHAPE 2. SIZE 3. MATERIAL 4. TOLERANCE AND FINISH Reference: Bertoline, Chapter 4
Dimensioning Conventions exist for choice and placement Not too many and not too few Never should measure off drawing with a ruler 5 5 3 Adds *size* to object W/ CAD, natural part of part creation. W/ traditional drafting, added later Conventions for CHOICE, PLACEMENT Leave nothing to chance. Machinist should not be taking dimensions off your dwg with a ruler 3
Under/Over Dimensioning 3 5 3 5 2 Leave nothing to chance. Do not over dimension, do not under dimension
Dimensioning rules: …find the mistakes. 3 5 3 5 2 Leave nothing to chance. Do not over dimension, do not under dimension
Dimensioning guidelines 3 5 1. Don’t overdefine or underdefine the object. [MOST IMPORTANT] 2. Dimension to the visible contour or shape of the feature / Don’t dimension to hidden lines. 4. Don’t dimension to object lines (model edges), use extension lines. 5. Don’t overlap a dimension and the model. Place dimensions away from the model’s surface. 6. Don’t cross extension lines if possible. 7. Group dimensions when possible unless it become difficult to read. 8. Place dimensions on the side of the view were adjacent views exist (for easy referencing). Leave nothing to chance. Do not over dimension, do not under dimension 3 5 2
Design Detail ½” thick aluminum block Which is more expensive: A or B and why? 6.0 A 6.0 B B is not standard stock, way more expensive. In same vein, use standard fasteners 4.0 4.1
www.mcmaster.com Browse to materials > metals > aluminum > bar/sheet stock > 6061 > .50” thick > 6” long.
Dimensioning Choices & Design Intent If change width of block to 8, what happens to the hole location? A B 6 2 6 4 2 If change width to 8 inches, does hole move? Think *carefully* about design intent before picking a dimensioning scheme. With CAD, wrong dimensioning scheme is a major pain to correct.
Placement conventions Extension and dimension lines thinner than object lines Dimensions legible but not dominate See Leuptow pp. 52-55 for conventions
Lettering: 1 or 2 directions only OK OK NO
Extension Lines No gaps when crossing object lines to dimension internal features OK to cross extension lines Pro/E automates this
All on one side YES NO
Dimensioning Rounds Place dimension on view that shows the circle 0.25 0.75 R 0.125 Put dimension on view that shows the circle. Show diameter, unless other considerations dictate radius Place dimension on view that shows the circle Show diameter rather than radius
Highlight holes and notes
TOLERANCES Reference: Bertoline, Chapter 4. Strongly suggest reading this chapter. Tolerances matter because it is rare that you can sit there and custom fit parts. For modern assembly, every instance of Part A must fit into every instance of Part B or else you will have a problem assembling. It is impossible to make things to an exact dimension. All mfg processes will give you a range about the nominal dimension. The more you pay, the tighter the range. For example, the outside dimensions of a block may not matter so much (tol = 0.1), but the diameter of the hole in that block matters a lot because it receives a press fit bearing (tol = tenths) A ½ inch hole made on an ordinary drill press gives you a hole in the range 0.496 to 0.504 (+/- 0.004). For higher precision, drill undersize and use a reamer…but it will cost you more and take longer to fabricate. Moral: Go with the loosest tolerance you can. www.efunda.com/processes/machining/drill.cfm www.efunda.com/processes/machining/drill_press.cfm
Tolerances Matter because parts cannot be made to an exact dimension Must specify dimension tolerance so that every part A fits every part B Higher tolerance = higher cost A ½ inch hole made on an ordinary drill press gives you a hole in the range 0.496 to 0.504 (+/- 0.004). For higher precision, drill undersize and use a reamer…but it will cost you more and take longer to fabricate.
½ inch drill bit: +/- .0040 ½ inch reamer: +.0003, -.0000 For low tolerance, drill undersize and follow with reamer ½ inch reamer: +.0003, -.0000
LEGOS ! ABS plastic You can combine six 8-stud bricks of the same color 102,981,500 different ways 91% of all households with children in Denmark own LEGO products During the period 1949-1990, 110,000,000,000 (110 billion) LEGO elements were molded Bayer Corporation's Polymers Division is the official supplier of ABS plastic to the LEGO group. Exact specifications of the Bayer resin supplied to the LEGO Group are a closely held secret. Dimension tolerance of mold is 0.005 mm (0.0002 inch)! Bayer Corporation's Polymers Division is the official supplier of ABS plastic to the LEGO group. LEGO bricks are one of the most demanding ABS applications Mold tolerance is five thousandths of a millimeter (0.005 mm) or two tenths (0.0002 in.) in English units Most molds are held to 0.001 in. (one thou) in. Lego dimensions are five times more accurate. Molds for LEGO pieces are made in a factory in Germany and two factories in Switzerland Exact specifications of the Bayer resin supplied to the LEGO Group are a closely held secret. ABS resin not only offers (1) tight dimensional stability required for molding to narrow tolerances, (2) flow rate, (3) impact resistance, (4) surface appearance, (5) anti-static properties, (6) no long-term creep, (7) nonflammable, (8) non-toxic. 9.6 1.7 8 D 5

ANSI standards for shaft & holes Clearance Shaft smaller than hole for all shafts and holes Interference Shaft larger than hole for all shafts and holes Transition Smallest shaft fits in largest hole Running/Sliding RC1 (fit together, no play) to RC9 (fit loosely) Force/shrink FN1 (light drive and pressure) to FN5 (high stresses and pressures) …and others Like Locational, etc. “How loose should it be?” Much has been worked out in past. Use it. Consult machinery handbook or drafting handbook for details Basic hole Use nominal size of hole as starting point Basic shaft Use nominal size of shaft as starting point
Preferred Fit Example…
“Basic Hole” Tolerancing Example 1.0000 + .0012 - .0000 - .0008 - .0016 Smallest hole & largest shaft: 1.0000 – 0.9992 = 0.0008 clearance Largest hole, smallest shaft 1.0012 – 0.9984 = 0.0028 clearance Drawing shows 1 in. nominal, ANSI RC4 clearance fit “Basic Hole” means smallest possible hole = nominal, then size shaft for clearance RC4 clearance = [0.0008, 0.0028] = [smallest hole-largest shaft, largest hole - smallest shaft]

Manufacturing Tolerances
Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T)
Traditional tolerancing is ambiguous 3.000 ±.005 1.000 ±.005 ? ? Can left side be .995 and right side be 1.005? Can part be .995 at edges and 1.005 in middle and thus not sit flat on a table?
Ambiguity… + + Square deviation Circular deviation .25 ± .01 Hole location defines an error *square*, but we really want to allow a *circular* deviation Solved by the “Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing System” that allows you to specify design intent. Based on showing nominal dimensions augmented with a notation system for showing design intent for tolerances. More?: See Chapter 6 in Lueptow + + Square deviation Circular deviation
