Mechanical Design Brief

(All Mechanical Engineering programs) Design Report help

Design a fixed-reference mechanical system capable of picking up a standard 330ml drink can and dispensing the contents into a predefined container.

•  Performance
  • The system must have a fixed point of reference
  • The system must be self-supporting
  • Mechanical – Capable of picking up and pouring a standard 330ml drink can
  • Medical – Capable of holding and dispensing 14 “pills” (Standard Trebor Extra Strong Mints)
• Physical Constraints
  • Maximum footprint of the system = 400mm x 400mm
  • Maximum wight = 10kg
• Budget constraints
  • Total cost of mechanical components, manufactured or purchased, must not exceed £200
  • Electronic components are excluded from budget limitations but are subject to procurement limitation

    • Operation requirements
    • Manufacturing and assembly requirements
    • Disposal
    • Etc…
  • Concept Designs of potential solutions (minimum of 4 designs)
    • Clear sketches
    • Well-annotated
    • Brief description of operation
    • Practicality
  • Concept Selection
    • Criteria selection and ranking
    • Concept scoring
  • Embodiment Design
    • Scheme drawing

Design Report help

• There is no word limit for this design report; however, you should aim to write as comprehensibly and concisely as possible, using figures/tables & data to present clear and objective design justifications.
• You must submit your Individual Design Report as a .pdf file via Canvas.

Formatting your submission:

• You do not need to include a cover sheet.
• Submission format is a design portfolio and should be treated as a formal report:
  • As such, subtitles/section headings are expected, as is a contents page, figure/table captions, abstract and list of tables/figures etc.
    References are not required,
