What is an Orthographic Projection?
An Orthographic projection is a 2-D representation of a 3-D object. The 2-D
drawing represents different sides of an object.
The six principal views
The 6 principal views are created by looking at the object (straight on) in the
directions indicated.
Line Type and Weight
Line type and line weight provide valuable information to the print reader.
For example, line type and weight can answer the following questions.
Is the feature visible or hidden from view?
Is the line part of the object or part of a dimension?
Is the line indicating symmetry?
There are four commonly used line types;
continuous
hidden
center
phantom
Some lines are more important than others. Importance is indicated by line
weight or thickness. The thicker the line, the more important it is.
Line types
Visible lines
Visible lines represent visible edges and boundaries.
Continuous and thick (0.5 - 0.6 mm).
Hidden lines
Hidden lines represent hidden edges and boundaries.
Dashed and medium thick (0.35 - 0.45 mm).
Center lines
Center lines Represent axes of symmetry.
Long dash short dash and thin (0.3 mm).
Phantom lines
Phantom lines are used to indicate imaginary features such as alternate
positions of moving parts and adjacent positions of related parts.
The line type is long dash short dash short dash and the line weight
is usually thin (0.3 mm).
Dimension and Extension lines
Dimension and extension lines are used to show the size of an object.
In general, a dimension line is placed between two extension lines and is
terminated by arrowheads, which indicates the direction and extent of the
dimension.
The line type is continuous and the line weight is thin (0.3 mm).
Cutting plane lines
Cutting plane lines are used to show where an imaginary cut has been
made through the object in order to view interior features.
The line type is phantom and the line weight is very thick (0.6 to 0.8
mm).
Arrows are placed at both ends of the cutting plane line to indicate the
direction of sight.
Section lines
Section lines are used to show areas that have been cut by the cutting
plane.
Section lines are grouped in parallel line patterns and usually drawn at a
o
45 angle.
The line type is usually continuous and the line weight is thin (0.3 mm).
Break lines
Break lines are used to show imaginary breaks in objects.
A break line is usually made up of a series of connecting arcs.
The line type is continuous and the line weight is usually thick (0.5 0.6
mm).
