Assembly Drawing
An assembly working-drawing indicates how the individual
parts of a machine or mechanism are assembled to make a complete unit. An assembly working-drawing serves the following purposes:
o It describes the shape of the assembled unit. o it indicates how the parts of the assembled unit are positioned in
relation to each other. o It identifies each component that forms part of the assembled unit. o It provides a parts list that describes and lists essential data concerning each part of the assembled unit.

Assembly Drawing
The parts list of an
assembly workingdrawing itemizes important data about each part of an assembled unit such as part name, material, quantity required, and size specifications.

working-drawings should vary in order to make the shapes of the sectioned parts more apparent. Different types of section lines as well as different spacing and different angles of inclination are recommended for this purpose. As a general rule solid parts that do not have interior features, such as shafts, rivets, pins, keys, and threaded fasteners, remain un-sectioned on assembly workingdrawings.

identified by means of a part number. Each part number is lettered within a parts identification balloon that has a leader that ends at or on the part identified. Hints Regarding Parts Balloons and leaders Group balloons in straight lines, clockwise and in sequence, if possible, around the view or views. Place balloons at a reasonable distance from the views. A minimum distance of 25 mm is recommended. Use straight leaders when possible. Bend a leader when it is necessary to maintain clarity.

horizontal leaders. Place parts balloons adjacent to parts being identified in order to avoid extra-long leaders and the need to pass over too many other parts. Leaders that pass over sectioned parts should be drawn so they do not become confused with the section lines. Avoid drawing leaders through the corners of parts.

POINTS TO REMEMBER
As a general rule, assembly working-drawings are not
dimensioned. Hidden lines that do not add to the clarity of an assembly working-drawing should be omitted. Do not position parts identification balloons haphazardly. Try to group them in straight lines around the views, preferably clockwise and in sequence. Parts leaders should be drawn at an angle. Adjacent parts that are sectioned should have different types of section lines, should have section lines drawn at different angles, or should be spaced differently in order to make them readily apparent.

POINTS TO REMEMBER
On assembly working-drawings shafts, rivets, keys,
screw-thread fasteners, and other solid parts are not usually sectioned. When necessary, reference information is shown on assembly working drawings in the form of notes and dimensions.

Sub-assembly Drawings
Many assemblies such as an automobile, lathe, etc., are
assembled with many pre-assembled components as well as individual parts. These pre-assembled units are known as sub-assemblies. A sub-assembly drawing is an assembly drawing of a group of related parts, that form a part in a more complicated machine. Examples of such drawings are: lathe tail-stock, diesel engine fuel pump, carburetor, etc.

which includes an orthographic projection and dimensions. Component or part drawing is a detailed drawing of a component to facilitate its manufacture. A part drawing shows the number of views of each single part of a machine to facilitate its manufacturing. It should give all the dimensions, limits, tolerances and special finishing; if any.

Catalogue Drawings
Special assembly drawings are prepared for company
catalogues. These drawings show only the pertinent details and dimensions that would interest the potential buyer.
Schematic Drawings
A schematic drawing is the simplified illustration of a
machine or system, replacing all the elements by their respective conventional representations, to understand the principle of operation.

Patent Drawings
A patent drawing gives the correct and complete
features of a new technology or innovation adopted for a machine or system. The drawings are pictorial in nature and self explanatory but not useful for production purposes.
