METBD 110 Hands-On 1FeaturesWhy:Learning Objectives:Performance Criteria:Resources in addition to Other Students and Instructor:Plan:Why:To understand how to create a part in a solid modeling software package, such as Pro/ENGINEER or SolidWorks, one must understand the extrusion process and what the term features and protrusions mean. Learning Objectives:- Clearly understand the extrusion process.- Be able to identify the different features of an object. - Start the Pro/ENGINEER software and open a file from the courseware data disk. Performance Criteria:- Properly identify the number of features in an object.Resources in addition to Other Students and Instructor:- Accessing Courseware Data Disk - Starting Pro/ENGINEER- Setting the Working Directory- Opening Pre-Existing Files- Demonstration videos in Angel7/25/03 1 of 2METBD 110 Hands-On 1FeaturesPlan:1. Read the web pages listed above. Keep a printed copy of the documents in your notebook. 2. Access the Pro_E courseware datadisk. (Use Accessing Courseware Data Disk web link.) 3. Start Pro/ENGINEER (Use Starting Pro/ENGINEER web link.) 4. While waiting for Pro/E to load, rotate the object your instructor handed out until you are looking perpendicular to the front view. i. The front view of the object should be the most descriptive view (side) with the least amount of hidden lines.5. Set your working directory to: PRO_E on ‘PSBDFILESRVR’ (V:)\METBD_110\Orthographic\ (Use Settingthe Working Directory web page.) 6. Open the part file named ‘Features_01’. (Use Opening Pre-Existing Files web link)7. In teams of 4, decide how many features there are? Describe the most descriptive two-dimensional shape for each feature.8. Prove by building the object.9. Repeat steps 6 - 8 for part files ‘Features_02 – 09”.a. If you decide to print a copy, please help conserve the amount of toner used by turning the shading off. Critical Questions:1. Can a shape be extruded different lengths?2. Can an extrusion be done as a protrusion, cut, or
