Project Examples
In teams of 1 to 5, students will be required to design and fabricate prototypes by using digital manufacturing technology. They will first work on a design followed by creating drawings. Once those are created and approved, the group will start to manufacture the parts. Followed by the final assembly and testing which will provide your organization with a final product.
Examples that students can design and manufacture include but are not limited to:
- Tools
- Jigs
- Fixtures
- Precision Fabrication Assemblies
- Prototypes
- Solar photo-voltaic and battery energy storage system design for fish habitat conservatory
- Converting household electronic devices to use 48VDC instead of 120VAC
- Apartment building solar wall energy performance audit and monitoring system design
- Troubleshooting wind turbine controls and assessing energy demand for recreational facility
- Institutional lighting retrofit audit
- LED efficacy testing using smart DC power controller vs standard AC power
- Electric vehicle motor driver design and testing
