9.2D Drawing
Aim: To create a 2D view of the given diagram using Auto CAD software.
Requirement
s: 1. Computer with Auto CAD Software
2. Computer set up
3. Plotter
List of commands: Point, Line, Reference line, circle, array, trim, off set, mirror,
fillet, chamfer, dimensioning commands.
Procedure:
1. Type limits in command menu & set values to 45,45
2. Change the units to millimeters from inches and also precision to 0 by
clicking format -> units -> ok.
3. To set the paper size type zoom -> enter and type a -> enter in command bar
4. Draw the 3 concentric circles of diameters 85, 62, 32
5. Draw the 2 axes lines from the centre of the circles
6. Draw the circle with 14dia on 62dia of circle and offset of the vertical line
with distance 4 to both
7. Sides of the vertical line
8. Then trim the unwanted lines
9. Use the array command from modify tool bar to represent the 6 holes with 14
dia of centre of the circles
2. 10. Offset the vertical and horizontal axes with 47 and 52 distance
3. 11. And draw the 2 circles with 14 radius and 12 dia at coincide of the offset
axes
4. 12. From the modify tool bar select the fillet command to represent the 12R
fillet
5. 13. Then mirror this to require the 2D drawing
6. 14. Finally trim the unwanted lines and circles
