Jun 7th
CAD is a very essential and integral part of mechanical engineering. There are numerous challenges eliminated by using CAD packages. I use Solidworks but if you have any other packages that you prefer and can post some jpeg files on the website then that would be incredible.

Jun 7th
This is a peristaltic pump individual project that i was required to do in my first year at Imperial College. It tested various aspects of the design aspect of engineering including making solidworks CAD models, bearing size selection, design to manufacture and idea development.
I was provided with the what was required of the pump and i had to go and develop the idea whilst working along tight design restrictions. By design restrictions i mean the dimensions of the peristaltic pump (does not include the transmission drive system) were provided to me and all i had to do is create a solidworks model. Later on in the course i was given further instructions on the drive system of the pump. I was to design a transmission system (with appropriate gears), intermediate shaft, bearings (able to withstand design loads) and a housing for the gear box.

Cricket Ball Throwing Machine
Jun 6th
The task was small. Mainly focused at exploring our creativity and team spirit. Like any ideal design process firstly, the design requirements were laid out:
>Design a cricket ball throwing machine.
>There are no restriction on size and price.
>Be creative.
The design process included evaluation of the problem and restriction and account for them when designing the final product.
