1.Types of drawing
1.1.Machine Drawing
It is pertaining to machine parts or components.
It is presented through a number of orthographic views, so that
the size and shape of the component is fully understood.
Part drawings and assembly drawings belong to this classification.
Fig.1.1.Example Of
Machine Drawing
1.2.Production Drawing
A production drawing, also referred to as working drawing, should
furnish all the dimensions, limits and special finishing processes such
as lapping, surface finish, etc., to guide the craftsman on the shop
floor in producing the component.
The title should also mention the material used for the product,
number of parts required for the assembled unit, etc.
Since a craftsman will ordinarily make one component at a time, it
is advisable to prepare the production drawing of each component on
a separate sheet.

1.3.Part Drawing
Component or part drawing is a detailed drawing of a component to
facilitate its manufacture.
All the principles of orthographic projection and the technique of
graphic representation must be followed to communicate the details in
a part drawing.
A part drawing with production details is rightly called as a
production drawing or working drawing.
1.4. assembly drawing
A drawing that shows the various parts of a machine in their correct
working locations is an assembly drawing. There are several types of
such drawings.
1.4.1.Design Assembly
drawing:-When a
machine is designed, an
assembly drawing or a
design layout is first
drawn to clearly
visualize the
performance, shape and
clearances of various
parts comprising the
machine.

1.4.2.Detailed Assembly drawing:-It is usually made for simple
machines, comprising of a relatively smaller number of simple parts. All
the dimensions and information necessary for the construction of such
parts and for the assembly of the parts are given directly on the
assembly drawing.
1.4.3.Sub-Assembly drawing:-Many assemblies such as an automobile,
lathe, etc., are assembled with many pre-assembled components as well
as individual parts.
1.4.4.Installation Assembly Drawing:- On this drawing, the location and
overall dimensions of the assembled unit are indicated. This drawing
provides useful information for assembling the machine, as this drawing
reveals all parts of a machine in their correct working position.
1.4.5.Assembly drawing for catalogue:- Special assembly drawings are
prepared for company catalogues. These drawings show only the
pertinent details and dimensions that would interest the potential buyer.
Figure 1.4 shows a typical catalogue drawing, showing the overall and
principal dimensions.
1.4.6.Assembly drawing for instruction manual:-These drawings in the
form of assembly drawings, are to be used when a machine, shipped
away in assembled condition, is knocked down in order to check all the
parts before reassembly and installation elsewhere.
1.4.7.Exploded Assembly Drawing:- In some cases, exploded pictorial
views are supplied to meet instruction manual requirements. These
drawings generally find a place in the parts list section of a company
instruction manual. Figure 1.6 shows this parts are positioned in the
sequence of assembly, but separated from each other
1.4.8.Schematic Assembly Drawing:-It is very difficult to understand
the operating principles of complicated machinery, merely from the
assembly drawings. Schematic representation of the unit facilitates easy
understanding of its operating principle. Figure 1.7 shows this
