ACADEMIC PROJECTS

. Designing of Implantable Insulin Pump (Prof. C.T Lin of CSUN

Mechanical Department, Medical Devices). Where we learned how muscles

work and what is the effect of insulin on body. Also designed

implantable insulin pump for diabetes patient according to the

specification and needs of the patient successfully and choose the

material for the insulin pump such that it will not harm the patient

and the battery runs for at least 3 years.

. Electronic Power steering system for the car. Where we build advance

steering system which has more precision.

. Automated Door Opening System using PLC (Allen Bradley). Where we

programmed successfully Allen Bradley PLC SLC 500 system and operated

three doors simultaneously using one PLC.

. Designing and optimizing the paper frog using the DMAIC method such

that there is minimum wastage of material, the frog looks good and has

minimum of 20 jumping cycles and can jump more than 1 meter.

. Designed a Engraved fish part, its tool path using Mastercam X2 and

cut the part on a CNC m/c

. Designed working model of an Autonomous Mobile Robot using Encoders,

DC motors and aluminum frames. Where motors were tuned according to

the specification that Prof. C.T Lin gave using National Instrument's

motor driver and then platform was controlled using LABView software

by taking feedback from the encoders.

. Designing of 3 Axes CNC Drilling Machine using Solidworks. In which

CNC machine parts are assembled according to the existing system but

change the old part with the latest part available which makes CNC

machine fast, reliable and accurate than before.
