Engineering Detail Drawing Services Guide
What is a Detail Drawing?
A detail drawing is an engineering document that contains all the necessary information to describe and manufacture a single component. It is a critical part of the engineering design process, ensuring that every aspect of a part is clearly communicated to manufacturers and other stakeholders.
Key Elements of Our Detail Drawings
Orthogonal Views
- Definition: Orthogonal views are 2D representations of a component from different angles (front, top, side).
- Requirement: We ensure enough views are provided to adequately describe the component. This typically includes three views but can be customized based on complexity.
Dimensions
- Placement: Dimensions are evenly distributed and structured to avoid duplication and clutter. They clearly indicate the size and location of features, facilitating accurate manufacturing.
Scale
- Definition: Scale indicates the size of the drawing relative to the actual component.
- Common Scales: We use a range of scales suitable for different purposes:
- Full Size: 1:1
- Enlargement: 2:1, 5:1, etc.
- Reduction: 1:2, 1:5, etc.
- Placement: The scale is clearly stated within the title block of our drawings.
Projection Type
- 3rd Angle Projection: This is the standard projection type we use, ensuring uniformity and clarity in interpreting views.
Drafting Standard
- AS1100 Compliance: Our drawings adhere to the Australian Standard AS1100, ensuring uniformity and clarity across all drawings.
Title, Drawing Number, and Dimensional Units
- Title: Indicates the name of the component.
- Drawing Number: A unique identifier for each part, aiding in easy tracking and reference.
- Dimensional Units: Typically in millimeters or inches, depending on client requirements.
Tolerances
- Definition: The permissible limit of variation in a physical dimension.
- Importance: Specifies the acceptable range for features, ensuring parts fit and function correctly.
Surface Texture and Treatments
- Surface Texture: Symbols that specify the required smoothness or roughness of surfaces.
- Treatments: Includes coatings or tempers, ensuring the component meets specific functional and durability requirements.
Material Specifications
- Importance: Clearly states the material of the component, which is crucial for manufacturing and performance.
Names and Dates
- Signatories: Includes initials or names of the drafter, checker, and approver, along with dates, ensuring accountability and traceability.
Zone Reference System
- Purpose: A grid system to facilitate locating specific features, especially useful on larger sheets.
Revisions and Modifications
- Tracking Changes: Revisions indicate modifications, reasons, and dates, ensuring clarity on updates and design development.
Drawing Sheet Sizes
- Standard Sizes: A0, A1, A2, A3, A4. We use sizes appropriate for the project scope and printing facilities.
Company and Sheet References
- Company Name: Indicates KEVOS.COM as the service provider.
- Sheet Reference: For multi-sheet drawings, includes total number of sheets and their sequence.
Our Process
- Consultation: Understand client requirements and project scope.
- Drafting: Create initial detail drawings based on provided specifications.
- Review and Feedback: Client reviews the drawings and provides feedback.
- Revisions: Implement any necessary changes based on client feedback.
- Finalization: Finalize the drawings and prepare them for delivery.
Case Study: Wall Bracket Drawing
To illustrate our process and the quality of our detail drawings, we present a case study of a wall bracket drawing. This example includes:
- Three orthogonal views for comprehensive description.
- Clearly placed dimensions and scales.
- Indication of third angle projection and compliance with AS1100.
- Detailed specifications including material, surface texture, and treatments.
