Projects UNDERTAKEN
1. FIRST PROJECT EVER
Working in WA in 2008 using Pro E Software, I was tasked to build a conveyor system for grain transfer system. Using counterweight at bottom and folding conveyor. It had 2 positions transport and working position. Other tasks involved selection of motors, length of conveyor and cylinders to carryout fold. Hand sketches and drawing not avail.
When model turns to reality - Me second from left with whole team involved before it was dispatched.
2. FiRST project ON OWN
Starting out in 2023, This was first task i undertook. Simple safety barrier. Client provided hand sketch and i converted to model, CAD drawing and finally completed project. Was kind enough to send photos of completed project.
Hand Sketch sent by Client
Sketch converted to model
Detail drawing of Each part of the model - Red Watermark to protect info.
Completed Project - Full life cycle from sketch to model to drawing to Final product.
3. CONVERTING BETWEEN DIFFERENT UNITS
Assigned task to convert all imperial unit dwg from Canada or US into metric unit dxf for manufacturing in Australia. I had to scale imperial to 25.41 to attain metric units. There were plenty but show casing just 3 for sample.
4. Trough
Hand sketch showing side profile. Challenge was to get inclined slope at the base for water to go through drain. This project was to put on website for client gallery. No dimension needed.
Sketch provided
Model 1 in desired orientation
Side view showing slope from ends to centre
Iso view from other end
Iso View in drawing in preferred orientation
completed unit (slight changes made during build in terms of cut outs as needed.)
5. GATES WITH 1DEG SLOPE
Worked on challenging project where gates were at 1 deg slope from one end to another. Slats that go in between were all meant to be trimmed 45 deg at both ends. Top curve channel and SHS all to have slope of 1deg.
Hand sketch provided
Model Front View showing 1 deg slope from Left to right
Gate Iso View
6. ADDITIONAL WORK - STRUCTURAL
Its not always Mechanical tasks that I get to do. I have also involved in structural projects. Pergolas and steel structures in the building. See below. Just model showed. These are across different projects.
Round Pergola front view showing underground - Line indicates ground level
Iso view of Left side showing construction of 12 individual RHS.
Structural steel in building 2 walls show door - One behind is internal of building and front is external steel.
Right side Iso view
Bolted connections between members
Underground view showing anchor bolts
Pergola on a slope
Front View of Pergola. 3 different heights off Ground
2 Stage Pergola
Side view
7. FROM PDF TO MODEL - CONCEPT BASED MODELLING
Another Variation to level of service provided. Here i was given just pdf with bare dimensions. I had to assume the sizes and work out the model. This is just for concept modelling. Client received potential request to build container but only pdf with basic dimension provided. Rest of all were assumptions based on scaling.
PDF Image sent with overall dimensions
Model created with dim and scaling of other parts
Other side of model showing Doors (Modified during conceptualisation with double door pivot shifted from outer side to centre.
PDF image sent with overall dimensions
Model created with Given dimensions and some scaling and assumptions. Walls hidden to show internal parts.
Other side of container showing doors
