The Cart Project

• The Projects
• The projects are developed in a collaborative
  environment
• Completed projects
• The Drill Project
• Radio Flyer project
• Guitar project
• Future project
• The Cart project

• The Cart Project
• The cart is divided into five sub assemblies
  according to functionality.
• Left Front Wheel, Right Front Wheel, Steering
  Wheel and Driver
• Left Rear Wheel, Right Rear Wheel, Rear Axle and
  Brake System
• Engine, Exhaust Pipe, (Gear Box) and Fuel Tank
• Chassis, Floor, Front End, Rear End and Pedals
• Roll Cage and Seat
• This shows the force applied on the four wheels
  of the kart when it met obstacles of different
  height.

• Reverse Engineering of a Drill
• Product 3/8" 7.2V Cordless Drill, KRAFT tech,
  type CDP02CN-1
• Three subassemblies were modeled
• Switch and batteries - Solid Works
• Power train UGS NX
• Housing CATIA

An Example of Dynamic Analysis (ADAMS) The
simulation of what is happening during the ride
in between the cart and different sized obstacles

• Structure Analysis with FEA method (the impact on
  driver in crash the strength testing of key
  components)
• Mechanism and Dynamic Analysis (the force applied
  on tire in different road condition driver
  comfort related to the vibration)
• Maintenance Analysis (reliability of key parts)
• Manufacturability Analysis (Improve the part
  design from the perspective of manufacturing)
• Mechatronics and control system (speed meter or
  monitor of other performance indexer engine
  speed control with microprocessor solar cell
  instead of gas engine )

Step 2 Assemble
Step 3Manufacturing

• The final assembly has been made in Solid Works
  , UGS and CATIA. STEP neutral exchange format has
  been used for data exchange. IGES data exchange
  format created some errors in geometry
  conversion. The housing has been manufacturing
  by using rapid prototyping.
