DESIGN AND MANUFACTURING OF SUSTAINABLE CHAISE LONGUE USING PARAMETRIC DESIGN AND ADVANCED ENGINEERING TOOLS

Using advanced computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided engineering (CAE) tools assists designers with the shape conceptualization and detailed drawings, virtual testing, and downstream manufacturing activities. Manufacturing process plans, using computer aided manufacturing (CAM) software, are developed from these CAD files. In this paper I developed parametric design of sustainable chaise lounge and developed actual manufacturing and assembly process plan. For making my design successful in finite element analysis I made two iteration and second design was able to withstand against load of more than 264 lbs which was result of finite element analysis in Catia. This is proper representation of innovative design integrated with advanced machining and process planning.
