chunky modeling

[ceschi1959]

Bye to all,

in an old discussion (recovered) we talked about chunky modeling. uoa had posted an example that I can't see anymore.
Do you have any more recent information about this type of modeling?
Can someone post an example?

Thank you.

Hi.

try to do an internet search because something is found.

However the concept is this:
start from a solid starting and then proceed by removal of material (all operations). Like I'm a sculptor.
is particularly suitable for modeling the shell or any type of sheet metal presenting complex forms.
in fact if you want to use the surfaces and then thickness them is not always possible.
Moreover the main advantage is that it is parametric and if you want to change something you do not have to regenerate the surfaces.

I hope I've been clear

I have not verified but if you are looking on youtube you should find something.. At least two years ago I found him.

I found a very old ppt...

chunky model is a cool concept....if you pass me the term, because with 4 commands on the cross you can do very complex things. practically everything comes from one or more solids that are then cut with planes or surfaces and joined together and then picked up. the big advantage, in addition to using only 4 or 5 simple commands, is that your model even if formed by 1000 features are all blocks of few operations and therefore if you have to upgrade something you do it in a simple way and then he updates all the features of that "group" up to the boolean and then the update of the rest of the model affects only the booleans for which it is very shipped. is not correct the term that is a way of working parametric because you can also not use sketch but many times you draw a rectangle with the basic curves.... the big advantage is that it is associative!!! and therefore the changes affect without big problems. we even used the plans (explicit) instead of the datum plane because if you need to change something redefine the plan, maybe moving the wcs. and make the cut again. another big advantage of chunky lies in the blend. If you work like this with all the faces you need cut with the trim body, the blends you do after depend on the "trim body" feature so you can redefine the plans or cutting surfaces but the blend is preserved (always if you conceptually are there). as rightly said someone for the plates not in sight of the car is mooolto useful. that is attention.... we carefully choose where to apply this method and where not!

thank you all for the answers.

in some areas I think I have shaped like this but without knowing that it was called chunky.:biggrin:

place an example in the image: is chunky?

features:
block
subtracted block
deformed boss
emptying

Thank you again.

Let's say it's very simple so I could say yes to 50%...it would be 100% chunky if you had done

extrusion (from explicit or block curves)
cutting side walls with floors (because maybe you had to stay 20 mm from something else from which you started to get the new offset plan using the wcs and moving it 20)
Extrusion (for the edge)
blend
emptying

said so about this piece is more complex than you did ...obviously.... but I assure you that on complex pieces is winning

Hi.
if you are interested in any document you can download it from the group "progettisti cad" on facebook

and who then finds the info in that facebook cauldron in the hypothesis that the posts and the material become really numerous? not to mention the impossibility of making long and articulated discussions that are legible since there is no quoting.
lost time...

Always, when it comes to feisbuc! and try to deny what I write if you have the courage, that I nail the wooden wheels of the wheelchair on the ground:

And after I nailed your wheelchair, I'll meet you with the crusher.

I would like to insert here some attachments for everyone but I don't know how to do it. Thank you.

when reply click on the "Advanced Mode" button at the bottom right. in the bar with the commands for formatting the text at the top right there is the symbol of the thumbnail that serves to attach files. if what you want to attach is not among the permitted ones (pdf, zip, png etc.) compact in .zip or .rar format and attach that.

 

[SMAU72]

as everything always depends on the use you do.
now that I know how to do...... I also attach here manuals that I have done on chunky modeling based on my experience in design, I hope that it will be useful to those who want to enter the philosophical side of advanced parametric design.

Good job
