Objectives

The purpose of this week session was to complete the modelling of the final project. The following is the breakdown of tasks for Week 2.

  • CAD Modeling of the Project.
  • Digitization of Project

    The proposed solution for the project will feature a electric motor unit that would be able retrieve the fishing net from the seafloor and can be easily mounted on light commercial fishing boats (16 ft to 60ft). The proposed solution can be easily setup with minimal fixation on the floor board of fishing boats and can also be dismantle easily since it does not feature multiple moving componenets. The motorized winch mechanism on the proposed solution would be able to pull the net in the short amount of time and provide enough toque for steady pull thereby improving the life of net. The following are the 2D models of the proposed solution with dimensions.

    The above models of the proposed solution were designed using the "Shapes" features in the Microsoft Word software.
