2.72 - Team Number 1
Group Meeting
April 3, 2007


  • Short-term To-do List:
    • Marcus --> Get the new dimensions from the updated Solidworks files for HTM analysis
    • Ani & Martin --> elastic errors
    • Will & Dan --> Talk to Dave & Pat about rake angles on aluminum
    • Will & Dan --> Code (MATLAB or MathCAD) to take in cutting force and output bearing load and shaft stresses
    • Meet Thursday after class to discuss progress!


  • Long-term To-do List:
    • Spindle Shaft design & bearing selection & consideration of collet
    • Structure design & construction
    • HTM's for elasticity
    • Feasibility of Accuracy = 10 microns
    • Straightness values for threaded lead screw
    • Rail analysis & bushing selection
    • Drive system


  • Considerations (to keep in mind):
    • Should use our HTM analysis, lead screw straightness, to evaluate feasibility
    • Drive Train:
      • If using gears or chains - must have a clutch
      • Belts with a "Christmas Tree?" - belts allow slipping at a dangerous torque!
      • Contingency (Direct Drive)
      • Bearings for driver
    • Will have to sit down with Prof. Culpepper & Chris to design the flecture
