Metal Deburr Air Filtering System Design
For this project, I was required to do an end-to-end filter design that filters metal dust in the air to protect worker's health. The most important design requirement is minimizing the lead time and ease of use. After consideration of both material and labor cost, I decided to make a weld free design using 80/20 framing and aluminum panels. As a result, the manufacturing and assembly process took under 4 hours to complete.
Steps took
-
Take measurements of available space and existing exhaust fan and determine the raw dimension of the housing.
-
Find off the shelf parts and material to reduce manufacturing time.
-
Create detailed 3D model in Solidworks and drawings with GD&T.
-
Make sheet metal laser program and release parts for manufacturing.
-
Assemble all parts.
Further testing of its air purifying efficiency will be testing in the Deburr department once electrical components arrive...
