PROJECTS
FAB-TECH PROJECT
The local company Fab-Tech partnered with my tech program to document tables on their manufacturing floor that had not been properly calculated for max load capacity. This model utilized the weldment feature of SolidWorks. The drawings, along with our load capacity calculations, were submitted to be reviewed by the company's professional engineer.
VISE ASSEMBLY
Taking basic isometric drawings of vise components and I designed models in SolidWorks, made an assembly with life-like mates, configurations for max open and shut positions, and created drawings for each modeled part including proper fits, tolerances, and GD&Ts.
JACK ASSEMBLY
This exam tasked us with modeling the base, inner column, and pin for an adjustable and non-adjustable jack. The models required a weldment for the base and pin configurations for a force fit and an adjustable model. Proper ANSI standards for choosing fits and tolerances. The drawings include proper tolerances and weldment tables.
GEAR ASSEMBLY
This project was an assignment to display our knowledge of gears. Modifying the SolidWorks stock gears, I designed and assembled a triple planetary gear train with accurate, functional gear ratio mates. This model is a simple friction-based hand crank conveyer.
Hand Axe
UVM's ENGR 1020 had this assignment to display a student's knowledge of the SolidWorks loft feature. Tasked with making a tool with a separate head and handle I designed an axe inspired by Viking hand axes with a twisting pick extending from the poll.
