September 6th, 2022 - Mechanical Task Sync Up

Ongoing Projects

• Design and Manufacture Battery Mount

  • need someone comfortable with modelling in solidworks

  • base knowledge of manufacturing processes

  • very rough low level physics knowledge for CG selection

  • likely a second year +

• Investigate differential bar slop

  • Do not need a dedicated member, this is good to give to a member with free time

• Manufacture and assemble gimbal mounting plate

  • Need to review design status, but this is likely good for a new member

  • Mounting method could be more stable! cad needs to be updated

• Determine ebox redesign scope

  • Great task for not a brand new student, but a younger student with some EE interest

  • meet with EE team to figure out contents of ebox, redesign front panel and box if necessary as well as mounting method (lower priority task for the time being, assign people to other things first)

• Weight reduction / joint performance test

  • Not for new members, should be run by existing members with experience

• Proximity limit switch

  • easy 3d printed new member task

• Allen key tool

  • good for new member

• EE performance testing

  • Existing member only

• Science

  • Austin and chan need to get science up and running ASAP - not to worry about new members for the time being

How Many People do we realistically want to retain?

• 5 people + new first years to shadow people
