step-by-step to create this "N" shaped design in AutoCAD

In this blog post, I'll guide you step-by-step to create this "N" shaped design in AutoCAD using lines and dimensions. It's a great practice for beginners to improve their drafting skills while learning precise commands!

Step-by-Step Guide to Create the "N" Shaped Design in AutoCAD

  1. Set Up the Drawing Environment

    • Open AutoCAD and ensure you're in the Drafting & Annotation workspace.
    • Set your units:
      • Use the UN command → Units: Decimal, Precision: 0.0.

  2. Start with a Horizontal Base

    • Use the Line tool (L) to draw:
      • A horizontal line of 22 units at the bottom.

  3. Create the Left Vertical Rectangle

    • From the bottom left endpoint:
      • Draw a vertical line of 30 units upward.
      • Draw a horizontal line of 8 units to the right.
      • Draw a vertical line of 18 units downward.
      • Connect it back horizontally with 8 units to close the rectangle.

  4. Create the Top Horizontal Rectangle

    • Move to the top of the vertical rectangle:
      • Use the Line command to draw a horizontal line of 22 units to the right.
      • Draw a vertical line of 8 units downward.
      • Close the rectangle using the same steps.

  5. Create the Diagonal Line

    • Use the Line tool to connect:
      • The bottom right corner of the left rectangle → to the top left corner of the right rectangle.

  6. Complete the Right Rectangle

    • From the endpoint of the diagonal line:
      • Draw a vertical line of 18 units downward.
      • Draw a horizontal line of 8 units to the right.
      • Draw a vertical line of 30 units upward to close the shape.

  7. Add Dimensions

    • Use the Dimension tool:
      • Linear Dimension:
        • Horizontal lengths: 8, 22, 8.
        • Vertical lengths: 18, 30.
      • Place dimensions neatly outside the drawing for clarity.

  8. Clean Up and Finalize

    • Use the Trim tool (TR) to clean any excess lines.
    • Verify all lengths and symmetry to match the given design.
    • Save and export your drawing in the desired format.

Sheet metal Funnel making

Making a Funnel using metallic sheet Making a Funnel using metallic sheet Aim:- To make a funnel from a given (GI)metallic sheet. Tools Required:- MALLET, SNIP, STAKE, STEEL RULE, BALL PEEN HAMMER, STRAIGHT EDGE, RIVETS, SCRIBER Procedure:  The size of the given sheet metal is checked for its dimensions using a steel rule The required development of surface is being made on the white paper which is overlapped on the sheet metal. The marking is done on the sheet metal as per the development being done on the paper. Now using straight snips, unwanted materials are removed. Now fold and bend the workpiece to make the funnel shape and joint is made on the workpieces. Then using a groover, a locked grooved joint is made for about 5mm. Also, hemming is done in the bottom of the funnel. In between top face and bottom face, a butt joint is made using a solder. Finally, trimming and finishing operations are carried out. Safety Precautions:- Each cut you make exposes s...

Isometric drawings for practice in AutoCAD

What is Isometric Drawing? Isometric drawing is a method of visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions. It allows for a clear and comprehensive depiction of complex structures by keeping the scale consistent and eliminating distortion. Isometric drawings use a 30-degree angle from the horizontal in all three axes (X, Y, and Z), creating a pseudo-3D effect where the height, width, and depth are equally foreshortened. Creating Isometric Drawings in AutoCAD AutoCAD provides tools and settings that make creating isometric drawings straightforward. Here’s a step-by-step guide: Step 1: Set Up Isometric Snap/Grid 1. Enable Isometric Snap/Grid:    - Type `SNAP` in the command line and press `Enter`.    - Type `Style` and press `Enter`.    - Choose `Isometric` and press `Enter`. 2. Switch Between Isoplanes:    - Type `F5` or `CTRL+E` to toggle between the top, right, and left isoplanes. Step 2: Draw Isometric Circles and Arcs 1. Isom...

The Motion-Balance System used in Pneumatic Instruments

The motion - balance system is used in pneumatic instruments to produce a proportional output of 3 - 15 psi when a corresponding input signal is applied to the instrument. A typical motion-balance system in a pneumatic instrument is shown below: The above diagram shows a motion-balance system in which the input motion is applied to point P on the lever PQ. The opposite end (Q) of this lever is pivoted to a second lever QRS which in turn has point S pivoted in a lever positioned by movement of the feedback bellows. At the center (R) of the lever QS there is a stem on which one end of the lever RTU is supported while it is pivoted at point U and has a flapper nozzle sensor located at point T. A horizontal displacement which causes P to move to the left is transmitted via Q to R, and as a result the flapper at T moves off the nozzle so that the back pressure falls. This change is amplified by the pneumatic relay so that the pressure in the feedback bellows falls and the lever carrying t...

STRESS STRAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF MILD STEEL BAR BY UTM

Aim: To study the stress strain characteristics of mild steel by Universal Testing Machine Equipment: Universal testing machine meter rule, dividers and scale, Test specimen Theory: In tension test of ductile metals, the properties usually determined are yield strength, ultimate tensile strength, modulus of elasticity, percentage of elongation etc. For brittle materials only compressive strength is determined. The tension test is normally carried out in a Universal Testing Machine (UTM). The specimen can be in the form of a rod or a plate. The dimensions of standard specimen can be known from accepted specifications. The following properties can be determined from the stress strain curve of the material: Proportional limit: is that point on the stress strain curve at which the curve deviates from linearity, i.e. from the relation Stress = Young's modulus x strain $\sigma = E \varepsilon$ Elastic limit: is the point on the stress strain curve above which plastic de...
