  1. 1. Final Presentation Zach Hupy Mechanical Engineering Intern Summer 2014
  2. 2. About Me
  3. 3. Cylinder Analysis Problems Locate a .052 diameter oil sump hole Check to make sure oil reed is mounted correctly Check to make sure plug is in correct location Method Using a sophisticated camera, one can compare each cylinder against a master for Pass/Fail protocol
  4. 4. 6/19/2015 Cylinder Analysis Cont. Before Reed Installation Test After Reed Installation Test
  5. 5. Prototyping In order to begin solving the problems, a prototype needed to be built Initially built out of wood with substitutes for certain specialized components Allowed for easy modifications in lighting conditions and cylinder placement to find optimum combination
  6. 6. 3D CAD Drawing Pro E Had never used Pro E prior to working at Briggs & Stratton Acclamation period took a few weeks Provided a good final design Also drafted each non-purchased part for machine shop to create
  7. 7. 3D CAD Model Video
  8. 8. 2D Draft Examples
  9. 9. Summary of Experience I enjoyed my project that I was assigned Learned how to use Pro E Learned some information about manufacturing and engines in general Would have preferred to work under a full- time ME as opposed to a Computer Science employee Will graduate in December 2014 with about a 3.2 GPA
  10. 10. Future Plans Will take the GMAT in August and the FE in October Would love an opportunity to work at Auburn plant again Plan to get an MBA and possibly an MS in Mechanical Plan to achieve Professional Engineer status
  11. 11. Questions/Comments?
