As a junior at Brigham Young University I competed in a manufacturing competition on a team with 3 other engineering students. We competed against 4 other teams each required to create an air engine with the lowest operating pressure.

The project consisted of performing design reviews for the air engine design prototype, drafting manufacturing process sheets, and manufacturing each part using lathes and mills.

Once the prototype was completed, additional reviews were performed and required modifications completed enabling the engine to be manufactured more efficiently in the given design scenario.

Design Scenario:

Allowed Processes: Sand Casting, Manual Machining

Production Capacity: 100 Parts Per Year
