Optimised 3D-Printed Workshop Fixture
Development of a functional workshop fixture intended to improve positioning and handling during a repetitive manufacturing operation.
The design was refined through several physical iterations. Each version was reviewed for stiffness, access, printability, material use and ease of installation. The final geometry reduced unnecessary volume while maintaining the required support surfaces and mounting features.
The project demonstrates practical CAD development, design for additive manufacturing and revision based on workshop feedback.
TOOLS
CATIA V5 / SolidWorks, FDM 3D printing
DELIVERABLES
3D CAD model, print-ready geometry and physical prototypes
OUTCOME
Final design manufactured and used as a functional workshop aid.
