Squeeze Time and Money out of Production Using Design for ManufacturabilitySOLIDWORKS
Product design does not occur in a vacuum and has a significant impact on manufacturing. In fact, 3D design carries even greater potential for streamlining production processes, especially when you take advantage of Design for Manufacturability tools and applications. With these technologies, you can avoid the manufacturing delays, cost overruns, and shop-floor retrofits that work against your company’s success and competitive position.
This document provides an overview of design for manufacturing and assembly (DFMA) principles. It discusses general design principles for manufacturability, including simplifying designs, standardizing parts, designing for ease of fabrication and assembly, and designing within production process capabilities. Specific guidelines are provided for various manufacturing processes. Process capability and how it relates to a manufacturing process meeting specifications is also introduced.
IRJET-Design Optimization of Mold for Dust Proof CapIRJET Journal
The document discusses the design optimization of a mold for a dust proof cap. It begins by describing the 3D modeling and drafting of the plastic cap component. Then, it discusses how 3D printing was used to create prototypes of the mold design to validate it before full production. The mold design was created using mold wizard software to generate an optimal solution. Key factors that affect injection molding quality like part design, mold design, machine parameters and processing conditions are reviewed. The methodology involves part design, 3D printing, mold wizard, mold design and manufacturing. The optimized mold design allows for production of over 10 caps using interchangeable cavity plates, improving over the initial design that produced only 4 caps.
1) Injection molding is an important manufacturing process that is used to produce plastic parts in large quantities. It is important to design parts for injection molding considering manufacturing guidelines to ensure quality parts and reduce costs.
2) Traditional DFM reviews are time-consuming and inconsistent. A new software called DFMPro automates DFM checks for injection molded parts using predefined rules.
3) DFMPro includes rules for injection molded parts related to wall thickness, draft angles, ribs, bosses, and undercuts that help improve manufacturability and part quality. Users can customize rules and the software enforces checks.

The narrative then shifts to a captivating exploration of prominent desktop OSs, Windows, macOS, and Linux. Windows, with its globally ubiquitous presence and user-friendly interface, emerges as a cornerstone in personal computing history. macOS, lauded for its sleek design and seamless integration with Apple's ecosystem, stands as a beacon of stability and creativity. Linux, an open-source marvel, offers unparalleled flexibility and security, revolutionizing the computing landscape. 🖥️
Moving to the realm of mobile devices, Das unravels the dominance of Android and iOS. Android's open-source ethos fosters a vibrant ecosystem of customization and innovation, while iOS boasts a seamless user experience and robust security infrastructure. Meanwhile, discontinued platforms like Symbian and Palm OS evoke nostalgia for their pioneering roles in the smartphone revolution.
The journey concludes with a reflection on the ever-evolving landscape of OS, underscored by the emergence of real-time operating systems (RTOS) and the persistent quest for innovation and efficiency. As technology continues to shape our world, understanding the foundations and evolution of operating systems remains paramount.

Introduction of Cybersecurity with OSS at Code Europe 2024Hiroshi SHIBATA
I develop the Ruby programming language, RubyGems, and Bundler, which are package managers for Ruby. Today, I will introduce how to enhance the security of your application using open-source software (OSS) examples from Ruby and RubyGems.
The first topic is CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures). I have published CVEs many times. But what exactly is a CVE? I'll provide a basic understanding of CVEs and explain how to detect and handle vulnerabilities in OSS.
Next, let's discuss package managers. Package managers play a critical role in the OSS ecosystem. I'll explain how to manage library dependencies in your application.
I'll share insights into how the Ruby and RubyGems core team works to keep our ecosystem safe. By the end of this talk, you'll have a better understanding of how to safeguard your code.

Introduction to Sheetmetal Design
Using the functionality available with the Pro/SHEETMETAL
module, you can capture your design intent by bending flat material
into its final formed shape, as well as create a flat form for
manufacturers to use to develop the actual model.
Objectives
After completing this module, you will be able to:
• List benefits of designing sheetmetal components using
Pro/SHEETMETAL
• List specialized sheetmetal feature types
• Describe the display of a sheetmetal part
• Describe how to orient a sheetmetal part
• Describe the design approach for a sheetmetal part

NOTES
THE SHEETMETAL DESIGN ENVIRONMENT
Using Pro/SHEETMETAL to generate sheetmetal components enables
you to do the following:
• Design a sheetmetal part that defines the supporting structures in an
assembly
• Add sheetmetal-specific features such as walls, bends, cuts, punches,
notches, and forms to a model in either the formed or flat condition
• Control the developed length of the bends when creating a flat instance
of the model
• Create flat patterns and flat states of the model geometry to reflect the
manufacturing and design models
• Create bend order tables that define the bend order, bend radius, and
bend angle used in the manufacturing process
• Document the design by generating production drawings of the flat
model and design model, as well as bend order tables
SHEETMETAL PARTS
Features
Sheetmetal parts are created in Sheetmetal mode, Assembly mode as
sheetmetal components, or from a regular Pro/ENGINEER part. When you
create a new file, you can use a default template or choose one from a list
of standard or user customizable templates. When you use a template that
contains designated parameters, you are able to enter parameter values as
you create the model. Templates also include default datum planes and a
coordinate system, saved views, and default layers.
Pro/ENGINEER offers specialized feature types for the sheetmetal design
environment. They include the following:
• sheetmetal cuts
• notches
• punches
• bends
• unbends
Introducti on to Sh eetm etal D esig n Pag e 1- 3
16. For University Use Only - Commercial Use Prohibited
NOTES
• bend backs
• forms
• walls
Note:
Create features in an order that captures your design intent, not
in the order in which you would manufacture the geometry.
Sheetmetal Part Display
A sheetmetal part appears with green and white surfaces with side surfaces
in between to define depth. This enables you to visualize the part and
geometry selection, since sheetmetal parts tend to be comparatively thin.
Sheetmetal parts always have a constant thickness. Pro/ENGINEER
creates the white surface by offsetting it from the green surface by the
amount of the material thickness. The side (depth) surfaces do not appear
until the part has been successfully regenerated.
Orienting the Sheetmetal Part
When orienting a sheetmetal part, the first selection must be a planar
surface or a datum plane and the second selection may be an edge. (This
way of viewing is available in all modes of Pro/ENGINEER.) You may
also use the thin edge surfaces of the sheetmetal part for orienting. Using
Query Select is the suggested method of selecting these thin surfaces.

17. For University Use Only - Commercial Use Prohibited
NOTES
Developed Length
Pro/ENGINEER automatically compensates for stretching that occurs in
the area of a bend by taking into account the thickness of the sheetmetal,
the radius of the bend, the bend angle, and other material properties. This
enables you to capture your design intent through the creation of the
formed sheetmetal model, but also enables you to create a flat form of the
model for manufacturers to use to develop the actual model.
Figure 2: The Developed Length
DESIGN APPROACH
You can generate sheetmetal models at either the sheetmetal level or the
assembly level, but the assembly level enables you to use the top-down
design approach.
The following is a typical design approach for creating sheetmetal parts at
the assembly level:
1. Create the assembly by assembling all major components relative
to each other. You can include simple supporting structures, or
sheetmetal parts that are not completely defined at this time.

3. After the cabinet and supporting structures are defined relative to
the internal components and each other, add any remaining
components or features.
4. Create or select a bend table to provide material allowances when
unbending the part. The bend table data will be used to ensure
accurate flat pattern geometry of the sheetmetal part.
5. In Sheetmetal mode, create a bend order table to define the
bending sequences for each part.
6. Add a Flat Pattern feature. This will create the flat pattern for
manufacturing. Another option is to create a Flat State.
7. Create a family table for each sheetmetal part that includes at least
two instances: the unbent flat pattern instance and the “as

NOTES
designed” instance. These instances are automatically created
using the Flat State option.
8. Document the parts by creating drawings. You can include both
instances (that is, with a multi-model drawing). Show the
dimensions for the “as designed” part and show/create dimensions
for the flat pattern part. Add the bend order table as a note.

Primary Walls
In this module, you will learn how to create primary walls. The first
sheetmetal feature must be a wall.
Objectives
After completing this module, you will be able to:
• Create the primary wall in a sheetmetal model
• Use sketching techniques to create the section for a primary wall
Page 2-1
25. For University Use Only - Commercial Use Prohibited
NOTES
WALL TYPES
Pro/SHEETMETAL gives you the ability to create two types of walls:
primary and secondary. Primary walls do not need another wall in order to
exist. They can stand alone. A secondary wall, however, must be attached
to another wall because it cannot exist independently; thus, it is always a
child of another wall.
CREATING THE FIRST WALL
Wall Feature Options
To create any model in Pro/ENGINEER, you should start with three
default datum planes. If you use one of the sheetmetal templates, the part
will automatically include these. When creating sheetmetal geometry, you
must add a wall as the next feature.
The following options are available for creating walls:
• Extrude – Sketches the side section of the wall and extrudes it to a
specified depth, as shown in Figure 1.
Figure 1: Extruding to a Specified Depth
• Revolve – Sketches the side section of the wall and revolves it about a
centerline, as shown in Figure 2.

NOTES
Figure 2: Revolving about a Centerline
• Blend – Uses parallel, rotational, or general blend feature forms to
create a wall, as shown in Figure 3. For more information on blends,
see “Creating a Blend” in PTC Help.
Figure 3: Using Blend Feature Forms
• Flat– Sketches the boundaries of the wall in the Sketcher plane, as
shown in Figure 4.

• Offset – Offsets from an existing surface, as shown in Figure 5. For
more information on offset surfaces, see “Creating Surfaces by
Offsetting” in PTC Help.
Figure 5: Offsetting from an Existing Surface
• Advanced – Creates a wall by using datum curves, multiple
trajectories, and so on.
Sketching Technique
When creating an extruded wall, you can insert bends to represent inside
and outside radii. Usually, you dimension all bends in sheetmetal parts to
the inside. To do this, you may need to use the Thicken option to thicken
the material and dimension the offset edges, as shown in Figure 6.

28. For University Use Only - Commercial Use Prohibited
NOTES
Figure 6: Thickening the Material
It is common practice to dimension sheetmetal walls to the mold line (the
intersection of the flat wall extensions). To create this dimensioning
scheme, you must add Sketcher centerlines and points while creating the
wall section. You can then dimension to the Sketcher points, instead of the
tangent points on the arc, as shown in Figure 7.

Secondary and Unattached Walls
After you create the base wall for a sheetmetal model, you can attach
secondary walls to its edges. You can also create unattached walls
and later merge the geometry.
Objectives
After completing this module, you will be able to:
• Create an attached secondary wall along the complete length of the
primary wall edge
• Create an attached secondary wall partially along the primary wall
edge
• Create relief for secondary walls
• Create unattached walls and merge the geometry

NOTES
TYPES OF SECONDARY WALLS
You can create several different types of secondary walls by sketching the
bend in the wall or automatically creating a bend along the attachment
edge. Using the No Radius and Use Radius options, you can create flat,
extruded, partial, and swept secondary walls.
• Flat, No Radius – Sketch the boundaries of the wall attached to the
selected edge. The new wall is automatically created parallel to the
adjacent wall, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2.
Figure 1: Flat, No Radius
Figure 2: A Wall Partially Along the Edge
• Extruded, No Radius – Sketch the side section of the wall that will be
extruded along the attachment edge. You determine if the bend is
created when sketching the section, as shown in Figure 3.

NOTES
If you sketch an arc to define the bend, you must sketch it tangent to the
attachment edge and adjacent to the green or white surface, as shown in
Figure 4.
Figure 4: Ensuring Tangency
You can also partially extrude the wall along the selected edge using the
blind depth option and by defining a sketching plane partially along the
edge.
• Swept, No Radius – You can attach the wall to a nonlinear edge, but
the edge must consist of all tangent entities, as shown in Figure 5. The
green or white surfaces of the attachment edge do not necessarily have
to be planar. For more information on sweeps, see “Creating a Sweep”
in PTC Help.
Figure 5: Swept, No Radius
• Flat, Use Radius – You can define the sketching plane at a specific
angle through a selected attachment edge and then define a radius for
the desired bend at the attachment edge, as shown in Figure 6.

with a specified angle and then define the radius of the bend, as shown
in Figure 7. This bend deforms a portion of the existing attachment
wall.
Figure 7: Extruded, Use Radius
You can also partially extrude a wall along an edge using a blind depth
and relief, as shown in Figure 8.

• Swept, Use Radius – You can sketch the section for the wall, and
then specify the radius, as shown in Figure 9. With the Use Radius
option, you cannot enter a wall angle that is greater than 180° to the
adjacent green or white surface of the attachment edge.
Figure 9: Swept, Use Radius
Resulting Geometry
The Use Radius option produces different results, depending on the
attachment edge that you select, as shown in Figure 10 and Figure 11. If
you attach the geometry to an edge that is going to be the outside edge of
the wall, the length of the original wall does not change. However, if you
attach it to the inside edge, the wall extends a distance beyond the length
of the original wall that is equal to the thickness of the geometry.

When creating a flat wall, Pro/ENGINEER also enables you to
automatically miter a corner by sketching outside the attachment edge and
aligning to an existing wall, as shown in Figure 12. You must add rip
relief at the attachment edge.

Figure 12: Mitered Corner
Part and Feature Bend Tables
When creating a wall with the Use Radius option, you must specify
whether you want to use a part bend table or a feature bend table. Bend
tables control the developed length of the bends. Using the Part Bend Tbl
option, you can use a single table to control all of the bends on the entire
model.
Creating Other Walls
A twist takes the form of an extension to a straight edge on an existing
planar wall. It can be rectangular or trapezoidal. It has an axis running
through it center, perpendicular to the attach edge and it can be twisted
around the axis by a specified amount, as shown in Figure 13. You cannot
use a radius with the twist wall type. You can unbend a twisted wall using
Se conda ry and Un atta ched Wall s Pag e 3- 7
44. For University Use Only - Commercial Use Prohibited
NOTES
the Unbend and Regular options. You can also add more walls to the end
of the wall.
To generate the twisted geometry, you must specify the following values:
• Point of attachment
• Width at the start
• Width at the end
• Length
• Twist angle
• Developed length
Figure 13: Twisted Wall
To create an extended wall, you can extend the existing green surface of a
wall up to an existing planar surface or to a specified distance. Using this
technique, you can close gaps between walls in the geometry by extending
up to the inside or outside surfaces of the wall, as shown in Figure 14. You
cannot use a radius with the extended wall type.

CREATING UNATTACHED WALLS
After you add the first wall of the model, you can create additional
unattached walls using the same methods. Figure 15 shows a primary wall
with an unattached wall. The Unattached option enables you to capture
the intent of the model with greater flexibility by enabling you to
concentrate in more than one area on the model. Once you have created
the walls, you can use an unattached or secondary wall to “bridge the gap”
and then merge the geometry.

46. For University Use Only - Commercial Use Prohibited
NOTES
Merging Unattached Walls
To successfully merge an unattached wall with an unattached or secondary
wall, the wall geometry must be tangent to the wall with which you are
merging it.
Also, the corresponding green side of the unattached wall must be adjacent
to the green side of the adjacent wall. You can change this, if necessary,
by using the Swap Side element, as shown in Figure 16.
Figure 16: Matching the Side
SECONDARY WALLS WITH RELIEF
When creating walls or bends that require relief, the system provides an
automatic relief function. The choices are as follows:
• No Relief – Attach the wall without reliefs.
• StrtchRelief – Use material stretching to provide bend relief at the
wall attachment points, as shown in Figure 17. The system prompts for
the width and angle of the stretch relief.

• Rip relief– At the wall attachment points, rip the existing material
normal to the edge and back to the tangent line as shown in Figure 18.

• RecRelief – At the wall attachment points, apply a rectangular cut by
defining its width and depth, as shown in Figure 19.

LABORATORY PRACTICAL
Goal
The goal of this exercise is to create secondary walls with relief, when
necessary and create unattached walls that are eventually merged with
existing geometry.
Method
In the first exercise, you will create secondary walls using different types
of automatic relief. In the second exercise, you will create secondary walls
and create additional extruded and extended walls to close gaps in the
geometry. In the third exercise, you will create a new part using several
different techniques to construct the walls. In the fourth exercise, you will
create two unattached walls in a part and merge them to complete the
geometry.

MODULE SUMMARY
In this module, you have learned that:
• When creating some secondary wall types, you have the option of
having the system automatically apply a radius at the attachment edge.
• The Use Radius option produces different results depending on the
attachment edge selection.
• You can extrude secondary walls partially along an attachment edge
by using the optional Depth element.
• Unattached walls enable you to concentrate on more than one area of
the model.
• Automatic relief can be added to walls when necessary.

Unbend, Bend Back, and Cuts
It is easier to create sheetmetal parts in a completely bent condition;
however, some features must be created in a flat state. Combinations
of unbend and bend back features enable these features to be created
effectively.
Objectives
After completing this module, you will be able to:
• Create unbend features
• Create bend back features
• Create sheetmetal cut features

NOTES
THE UNBEND, REGULAR FEATURE
The unbend, regular feature will unbend the curved surfaces of the part
created by walls and bend features. If all bends are selected, a flat pattern
of the part is automatically generated. You are prompted to pick a plane or
edge to remain fixed while the part is being unbent. It is good practice to
always pick the same plane or edge each time an unbend or bend back
feature is created. This will keep the part in a consistent orientation.

THE BEND BACK FEATURE
The bend back feature may be used to return an unbent feature to its
original condition. When you create a bend back feature, you can specify
contours to remain fixed (that is, unbent) by picking on the edge of that
contour.
Figure 2: The Bend Back Feature
Notes:
When a sheetmetal wall overlaps and intersects in the unbent
position, the system highlights it and issues a warning.

CREATING SHEETMETAL CUTS
A sheetmetal cut feature enables you to create Thru All and Thru Next
cuts. The techniques for creating the cuts are the same as in Part mode.
Unlike the solid cut, the sheetmetal cut always removes material normal to
the green or white side of the model in order to emulate most sheetmetal
manufacturing processes. The solid cut removes material normal to the
sketching plane.

Dimensioning Scheme
Features may be added to the sheetmetal part while the part is in any
design condition (that is, completely bent, completely unbent in its flat
condition, or at any stage in-between). It is easiest to design sheetmetal
parts in the completely bent condition. When creating features in the
unbent stages, care must be taken when picking sketcher references. See
the example in Figure 4.
Cut created before bend Cut created after bend
and unbend features
When bend is created,
new surfaces result. Cut
section stays in old
surface location. When bent back, cut section
stays with cut feature. The
cut could have been created
in the bent state.

LABORATORY PRACTICAL
Goal
The goal of this lab is to create sheetmetal cuts across bent geometry that
result in flat contours.
Method
In this exercise, you create a wall with two bends. An unbend feature is
created followed by two sheetmetal cuts. A bend back feature is then
created, but with two contours remaining flat.

EXERCISE 1: Unbend and Bend Back
Task 1. Create a new sheetmetal part.
1. Create a new part called BEND_BACK using the default template.
2. Create an extruded wall using the dimension scheme shown in
