3D Exercise 42

Exercise 42

In this CAD tutorial we'll use the features: 

🧱 Extrude

Extrude is the most fundamental command for turning a 2D sketch into a 3D solid. It works by taking a closed sketch profile and extending it linearly (in a straight line).

• Function: It is used to add material (create a "boss") or to remove material (create a "cut").

• Control: You define the direction and depth of the extension.

✂️ Split Body

The Split Body command is used to divide an existing solid body into two or more separate bodies.

• Function: It requires a splitting tool, which can be a plane, a face, or a surface body. The splitting tool acts as a knife, slicing the solid body along its defined boundary.

• Benefit: This is essential for separating a single modeled part into its individual components or for preparing a part for complex surfacing or shelling operations.

📐 Fillet & Hole

These commands are used to refine and add standardized features to a model.

• Fillet: This command creates a smooth, rounded edge on a part by adding or removing material according to a specified radius. It's used for aesthetics and to reduce stress concentrations.

• Hole: This is a specialized tool for creating different types of cylindrical cuts in a part. It is more efficient than a simple extruded cut because it allows you to quickly define industry-standard features like clearance, countersunk, or tapped (threaded) holes.
