Hello, good evening
I am currently in CAD/CAM training and I have a cusrus of 240 hours of solidworks..... 3D, assembly, sheet metal, mechanically welded, surfacing......
As part of my training, I have to devote 1 month (in August) to carry out a project from A to Z.
We have the choice of our project but there are just a few criteria to respect.......
There must be at least 100 pieces in the project..... Knowing that a bolt or nut is a part :) obviously I'm not going to make 90 bolts;)
There must be movement (or movements) in my assemblages.
If there is sheet metal work, it's a plus but not essential.
We have several options:
Either start from a project on plan and redo it (this is the least rated of course)
Or start with a concrete project and a real object that can be used as a basis for work (example: a chainsaw.... we explode it, we study the parts and redraw them)
Or to make a complex creation, an invention, a creative project...... invent a machine, create movements, use known profiles, everyday objects (cylinder, limit switch, etc.)
Personally, I had thought of recreating a radio-controlled aircraft in structure, with torque, ribs, controls, retractable gear, aileron movement, etc...... But the project was rejected because it was too simple.....
I have a bit of trouble finding an original project knowing that my priority would be to start with a concrete object that I could explode and redraw by taking the dimensions and other details....
The ideal would be to have an object, a machine, a concept with a possible exploded plan to find....
Do you have any ideas for me......
