Types of Drawings
Production Drawing
A production drawing, also known as working drawing, supplies information and
instructions for the manufacture or construction of machines or structures.

A production drawing should provide all the dimensions, limits, special finishing processes,
surface quality, etc. The particulars of material, the number of components required for the
assembly, etc., are given in the title block.

The production drawing of a component should also indicate the sub-assembly or main
assembly where it will be assembled.

Since the working drawings may be sent to other companies to make or assemble the unit,
the drawings should confirm with the standards followed in the country. For this reason, a
production drawing becomes a legal document between the parties, in case of disputes in
manufacturing.

Working drawings may be classified into two groups :


(i) Detail or part drawings and
(ii) (ii) assembly drawings.
Types of Drawings

Detail or Part Drawing


A detail or part drawing is nothing but
a production or component drawing,
furnishing complete information for
the construction or manufacture of the
part. This information may be classified
as:
(1) Shape description
(2) Size description
(3) Specifications
(4) Additional information such as
drawing number, scale, method of
projection, name of the drafter,
name of the parts, etc.

Assembly Drawing
It is usually made for simple machines
or jobs, consisting of a relatively
smaller number of simple parts. All the
dimensions and information necessary
for the manufacture of a part and for
the assembly of the parts are given
directly on the assembly drawing.

Separate views of specific parts,


in enlargement, showing the mating of
parts, may also be drawn, in addition to
the regular assembly drawings.

Types of 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.
Design assembly drawing: When a machine is designed,
an assembly drawing or a design layout is first drawn to
clearly visualise the performance, shape and clearances of
various parts comprising the machine.
Detail 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

Types of Assembly Drawing Cont’d


Sub-assembly drawing: 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, carburettor, etc.
Installation assembly drawing: On this drawing, the
location and dimensions of few important parts and
overall dimensions of the assembled unit are indicated.
Assembly drawing for catalogues: Special assembly
drawings are prepared for company catalogues. These
drawings show only the pertinent details and Assembly drawing for catalogues
dimensions that would interest the potential buyer.

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.

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.

Conventional Representations

Certain draughting conventions are used to represent


materials in section and machine elements in
engineering drawings..

Materials Representation
As a variety of materials are used for machine
components in engineering applications, it is
preferable to have different conventions of section
lining to differentiate between various
materials. The recommended conventions in use are
shown in the attached Fig.

Machine Components Representation


When the drawing of a component in its true
projection involves a lot of time, its convention may be
used to represent the actual component. Figure
attached shows typical examples of conventional
representation of various machine components used in
engineering drawing.
