Description

1. Setting up parts.
2. Setting assembly parameters.
3. Design parameterised rules.
4. Parametric table and part family.

Learning Outcomes AAv (AAv)

• AAv1 [heures: 40, D1, B3, C2, D4] : The student will be able to create a parameterised part or assembly.
  • Situation :
    • From a given specification.
    • At the end of the session.
  • Target learning outcomes - In particular, they will be able to:
    • Create user parameters.
    • Create relationships to control parameters.
    • Create simple reactions.
    • Create simple rules (possibly including several tests) to control the functions of a part or product.
    • Choose where to distribute parameters, rules and relationships between parts and products.
    • Organise and arrange the relationships and rules in the tree to make the model easier to read and modify.
    • Create parameter tables and part families.
    • Create and use a parts catalogue in a product.

Assessment methods

The average of two work grades:

• An individual design project for a parameterised part and its associated catalogue.
• An individual assessment of the parameterisation of given parts and assemblies.
