Academic Project: Design and Fabrication of Brushing Unit

Project Synopsis : The project was aimed to Deburring of Nozzle Surface The project consist of brushing unit based on pick and place system. It results into deburr the nozzles which reduce rejection rate, reducing complaints of clients and also cost.

Organization: Bosch Ltd, Nashik

Key Role : • Designing and calculations of Grippers, Upper & Lower Plates, Bolt, C-Clamp, L-Shaped Plate.

• Designing and drafting of components in Pro-E & CAD.

• Documentation of project for paper presentation.
