transportation

You are required to choose ONE main component from a way of transportation (Car, Plane, Train, etc…) and create a case study on that component and a discussion on the manufacture operations used to manufacture this part.

The case Study will focus on: (Function, Design, Material, process and Cost)

The Design Communication part:
Sketching
Design drawings
Detail drawings
Fabrication specifications:
Including: physical Dimensions, Material used, unusual assembly conditions, operating conditions and parameters

The Design Modeling part
Create well-defined 3D models of all parts required,
Create detail drawings of all parts using Third Angle Projection in accordance to ANSI 14.5-2009 and ANSI14.3 -2003 on B-size papers. Make sure the title block is completely filled as appropriate. Add local notes to assist in the manufacturing process,
Create an assembly drawing with an exploded view, Bill of Materials, section views, and complete title block,

Technical Report
Manufacturing section must the selected manufacturing process(es), the reasons for choosing these processes (i.e. advantages and disadvantages), cost of tools (if applicable), the number of units can manufactured per cycle.
Cost analysis section must include raw materials, hardware (i.e. springs, bolts, nuts etc.), packaging, shipping, tooling etc… for producing 100,000unit

The Manufacture process used can be one or more of these operations:
Shell Molding
Vacuum Molding
Expanded Polystyrene Process
Investment Casting
Injection molding
Basic permanent mold casting
Die casting
Centrifugal casting

The final report elements:

Introduction
Generating of design
Design selection process
Final design
Detailed description
Prototype details
Cost analysis
Conclusions
References

Expectations:

The class will be divided into 5 groups. Each group should consists of  6-7  students

You may include SW animation of your design, but you must create engineering drawings as discussed in the previous sections. Hand-free sketches can also be included in your report

Complete bibliography of all resources must be included and annotated inside the report according to MLA standards.
