Title: (Optional) Prepare a drawing of a linked mechanism.
Course: Drafting: Mechanical (21102-II) > Section: Performing Mechanical Drafting and Design Operations with Extensive Use of CADD

Preparation should include

- selecting the type of linked mechanism
- using terminology specific to linked mechanisms
- using established schematic symbols to represent moving and stationary features
- laying out the mechanism’s stroke, oscillation, and/or revolution to scale
- plotting the extremities of the mechanism’s stroke, oscillation, and/or revolution
- dimensioning the drawing to display the mechanism’s extremities.

Process/Skill Questions:

- What are the basic forms of mechanical motion?
- Is accuracy as important with schematic drawings as it is with working drawings? Why or why not?
