MOBILE HOLDER

I got inspired by this and i decided to write my slogan " SCIENCE IS FUN" instead of "NEVER GIVE UP"

Tool Chain

Fusion 360 is a cloud-based 3D modeling, CAD, CAM, and PCB software platform for product design and manufacturing...


and I use it specially for 3D design

i used laser work v6 to design my cat paws

  • Laser Cutter Machine

  • sheets of wood has been used

  • Laser work software has been used



Design/Preparation Process

using fusion360 to sketch my 2 parts pen holder.

1)draw the T-slot dimensions in one part of them

2) I made it fully defined shape before extruding

3 extrude my parts to 3 mm

170 mm lenght and 70 width

assembly 2 parts together using joints toolI to show the final design of the project, and to notice if there is any problem with the dimensions before fabrication

Development/Implementation Process

then i exported sketches from fusion as DXF form

then I moved to laser work software to write the sentence.

I colored all with black because i wanna cut the sentence also and i edited the speed with .25 and the power 65

finally it's RLD form ready to be cut


using laser cutter machine for making final product and i took 3:32 mins

  1. import the file to the computer of laser cutter

  2. download the rdl file to the machine

  3. place the wood on machine

  4. choose the start point

  • .I asked abdelrahman about my mobile holder and he suggest to put a plastic piece to prevent it from slidding.

  • also i was having a problem to draw a line and my instructor told me that i have to select two points.


Overcoming Challenges


First I wrote the sentence in fusion and then realized that i can't cut it because it is in a separated sketch


So, after searching, I deleted it and wrote in laserwork software better than fusion.

in

WOW!
