shock-absorber

High-Fidelity Shock Absorber Design & Engineering Project Overview This project features a high-precision, industrial-grade shock absorber assembly designed for mechanical performance and structural reliability. The design focuses on a modular architecture, combining a heavy-duty compression spring with a precision-machined damper housing and mounting hardware. This model demonstrates advanced parametric modeling techniques, ensuring that every component—from the coil pitch to the mounting eyelets—is optimized for both visual realism and manufacturing accuracy. Technical Specifications Parametric Coil Spring: Engineered with precise pitch and wire diameter to simulate realistic compression characteristics. Machined Damper Body: Features a multi-step housing with an integrated adjustment nut, allowing for variable preload simulations. Mounting Interfaces: Designed with standard industrial eyelet clearances to ensure compatibility with broader mechanical assemblies. Design for Manufacturing (DfM): All components are modeled as solid bodies with clean geometry, suitable for CNC machining or high-resolution 3D printing. Design Methodology & Tools Precision Surfacing: Utilized advanced solid modeling to create seamless transitions between mechanical interfaces. Parasolid Geometry: Built using a professional-grade modeling kernel to ensure 1:1 compatibility with industry-standard CAD/CAM software. Photorealistic Visualization: Developed high-fidelity renders to validate material finishes, highlights, and functional aesthetics before physical prototyping. Key Features High-Resolution Mesh: Exported with ultra-fine tolerances (≤ 0.02 mm) to meet professional 3D printing standards. Component Interconnectivity: Designed with logical assembly constraints, allowing for easy integration into vehicle chassis or industrial machinery models. Material Realism: Features realistic metallic and powder-coated finishes to enhance client presentations and marketing materials.
