Drawing a Sieve Isometrically - Tips & Tricks

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on techniques for drawing a flat round sieve isometrically, specifically for manufacturing purposes. Participants emphasize that for a simple manufacturing drawing, an orthographic view is often more suitable than an isometric representation. The consensus is that only the front view is necessary, showcasing a circle with details indicating the mesh and edge finishing. Using standard off-the-shelf mesh simplifies the drawing process, requiring only the circle to represent the sieve.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of orthographic and isometric drawing techniques
  • Familiarity with CAD software for technical drawings
  • Knowledge of manufacturing drawing standards
  • Experience with mesh materials and their representations in technical drawings
NEXT STEPS
  • Research CAD software options suitable for manufacturing drawings
  • Learn about orthographic projection techniques in technical drawing
  • Explore best practices for detailing mesh structures in CAD
  • Study standards for manufacturing drawings to ensure compliance
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for CAD designers, manufacturing engineers, and technical illustrators who are involved in creating precise manufacturing drawings for products like sieves.

Hi, Id like to figure out how to draw a sieve isometrically. Just a simple mesh sieve would be fine.. No Matter which way I look at it.. I cannot seem to find a way to draw it isometrically, would anyone be able to provide me a link or a useful tip to help me draw it thanks?

Is there a specific shape you have in mind? A flat, round sieve is easy, but there's no particular reason to draw it isometrically. What CAD packages do you have available? Are you looking for an artistic rendering or a manufacturing drawing?

Just a simple flat round sieve is suitable.. I am doing manufacturing drawing, I may just do orthographical drawings for the sieve, Is that suitable do you reckon?

If you're just looking for a manufacturing drawing, the only orthographic view of interest is the front view. And, you need only show a circle, with a detail(s) leading off to show the actual mesh and/or the edge finishing. If you're using a standard off-the-shelf mesh, and you have raw edges, you need only the circle.
