Overview of Status of Analysis, Design, Fabrication, Tests, etc.
finalizing prototype CAD designs
3D printing
Accomplishments from Previous Week
redesigned CAD files based on sponsor feedback
CAD files submitted for 3D printing
Goals for Next Week (list names after each item). Use specific and measurable objectives.
assemble 3D printed components
Instructor Comments from Last Meeting and Actions Taken to Address these Comments (indicate date of comments and if via email or in person)
prepare simple clear power point presentations for meetings with sponsor
highlight pros and cons
keep to do list on webpage
make figures large and clear for meetings
functionality prototype
due to many degrees of freedom, device may not work on the first try if parts are just CADed and machined by external supplier
would like to see a more iterative approach to test functionality throughout project life cycle
possiblly 3D print first iteration
have at least one part built for next weeks presentation
Risks and Areas of Concern
is the device easily adjusted like intended?
combining all components to fit within space constraints and not interfere with each other
durability of cantilever sliding designs
asses with FEA models
Schedule
assemble 3D printed parts
Budget (list amount spent and amount remaining)
$8.90 Spent
$6,491.10 Remaining
