Sixth Step

Yaiza Guerra 

This week we have devoted most of the time to design the sheet of our die. This is the first step to design the die.  In the design of the sheet we are going to define the operations that our die will make and the order of this operations. With the sheet design we also see the elements the die is going to need in order to do the piece, when are this elements placed and the amount of it. So is going to determine the rest of the design of the entire tool. So is very important job.

In order to do it each group member is going to design his own sheet.  Once every sheet is finished we are going to compare all of the design and decide what is going to be the group sheet design. But that will be next week. This week we only make the individual design , making it with CATIA ( specifically with CATIA´s “Generative sheetmetal Design” tool) . This is my design  

Apart of that we continue with CATIA ,learned this week about BODY´s and how work with them.  Also in EIE we make the RGI ( “reglamente de regimen interno”, internal regulations) of our fictional company.

In this week we made individually our band for the horquilla piece and we finished it. When we finished our design we compared it with other teammates and we choose one for the group. The group band has the best part from each individal band and the next week we started designing it in the group. With Gaizka that´s the only thing we have done in this week.

In Julen´s subject we continued with new Catia options, learning how to do same pieces in diferent ways. The new way that we learnt to do some pieces is with bodies, doing 2 diferent parts inside the piece and adding or removing one to each other.

In the other subjects we continued with our business making a video for it and preparing the exam of the next week of english subject.

This week we decided which one was going to the definitive band of the group, which we designed with the best of the bands of each one. Soon wewill designing in the group.

In the subject of Julen, we continue to learn different ways of making the pieces, such as using different bodies in the same piece.

In the other subjects as an enpresa, we continue to deepen the subject by creating a video.

This week we have done the design of the sheet of our die. In the sheet there are some points to start the design of all the die. Per example, the dimension of the cutting and bending punches and the dimension of the matrixes. Other important point in the sheet is the positioning of the guides of the sheet. After design the sheet we can do the design of the punches with the form of the matrix. Firstly we have to make the calculus of the perimeter of these forms to know the force of cutting and vending and after design the punches.

In Catia we learned to design bodies to make more easier the construction of the pieces. This is so valuable to make a modification after finish the piece.

With Ane we have advanced the work and started with the publicity of our company’s product.

We have finished our individual bands, and we have presented them to the other members of the group. We have detected the problems of each one and we have chosen how we want to do it.

In EIE we have made the organizational chart to be clear about our position in the company and we have done several investigations about the parts of a company and its members.

In English we have done vocabulary exercises and short writings. With gaizka we have begun to collect information that we will need for the creation of our progressive die.
