Models were created for all 75 components of the assembly. The drawings for both the components and the assembly for the nozzle group injector system were created using Unigraphics. SKETCH was used for complete parametric models. The machining model was created using the WAVE concept, in which the casting model was linked to the machining model. Any modification in the casting model would trigger an automatic update to the machining model. The drawings were created through Interpart expressions, in which the feature parameters of the model were linked to the drawing notes. An update on a feature parameter of the model would trigger an automatic update to the linked drawing note. Complete mating conditions were specified in the assembly model. Our off-shore team worked as an extended modeling facility for the customer with the customer having online access to the project developments
