Vise Stop

Dates
Tu J16: Assigned

- Project assigned.

Th J18: Vise Stop PDR/CDR

- Be prepared to discuss your design.
- Create an exploded view of your vise stop and a bill of materials (BOM). Make engineering drawings for each custom part that provides all dimensions including the use of GD+T for important dimensions and features. Include a detailed tolerance analysis to ensure proper fitting of the components.
- Email these items as a SINGLE .PDF file to medesign@seas.upenn.edu by 2:00PM before class. Title both the file and email as "501-VISESTOP-SUBMISSION-Pennkey".

Tu J23: Due

- Bring your completed vise stop to class.

Th J25: Canvas Reflection Due

- Complete the Canvas reflection for Vise Stop by 2:00PM before class.


Assignment
Fully design and machine a vise stop that is compatible with the vises and mills in the shop.

Deliverables
1. Complete and functional vise stop.
2. Engineering drawings of each custom part. Must be fully dimensioned including GD+T, accompanied by a detailed tolerance analysis.
3. Exploded view of your assembly and a complete bill of materials including columns for part, unit cost, quantity, total cost, and source.


Some Guidelines

  • We encourage you to move beyond the standard design found in the shop. Consider functionality and how the standard design could be improved or redesigned.
  • The components listed below will be provided for your use.
  • All parts should be manufacturable using the machines at Penn available to you as a 201 student.
  • Work permits must be submitted for all machined parts.
  • We have supplied toolboxes for usage by 501 students, which can found in the 501 workbench next to the Minimill. Please keep all tools in these kits and return them when you are done.
  • If additional tools are needed to operate the vise stop, they should be standard tools found in the shop.
  • Your vise stop will be evaluated based on function, stability, design aesthetics, machining quality, and the overall process/workflow.
