3 Manufactured Parts and Other Updates


Hello everybody,

After doing our MS6 about the most critical module, this week we mostly spent our time on manufacturing parts. We started with our axels and bushing for the axels which are really important parts of our most critical module

Also, we finished our CAD design and most importantly, we reached to an agreement about the manufacturing process and materials for the deployable anchor on our car. We decided to use the planetary gearbox to deploy the anchor and we agreed on using aluminum plate and acrylic plates for the housing. Finally, we started to work on the t-bar and we are planning on finishing it on monday.

As a group we are working on our engineering drawings and manufacturing plans and we are trying to finalize them on monday. Tuesday we are planning to manufacture parts such as pincers and brackets. We want to manufacture as many parts as possible before the thanksgiving break.

Happy Thanksgiving break everybody...
