Description:
I need a stone mill grinder powered by an electric motor. There will be two granite stones weighing circa 10 kg each that will spin on top a granite base, which weighs 15 kg. The base will be at the bottom of a stainless steel pan, which will also contain the 2 stones inside it. The pan will spin by the action of an electric engine/reductor, as its base will be locked on top a metal spinning disc connected to the engine/reductor shaft. The two stones will spin in opposite directions by the action of the spinning base. The stones need to apply a force on the base in order for them to fine ground cocoa bits. In order to that, a system of coils needs to be built so that a force can be applied on each stone. The stones and coil system will have to be easily detachable from the pan, as well as, the pan itself from the disc that holds it, so that chocolate can poured in another recipient.
Wants:
If you are not a very detailed oriented and patient person, please do not consider my offer.

Hi,base on :
1) Granite Base is dia.360mm x 5mmT ( rough sketch II) ,but latest discussion panel (22 Oct 2014) , the thickness have been change 50mm
2) Stones , 100mm Height x dia 200mm discussion panel (21 Oct 2014) , recent discussion panel (22 Oct 2014), the dia. shown is dia 210mm
Please let us know which parameter we need to focus on
3) Design :
a) Driven of the turning disc via protruded shaft.... Does the design need show this drive mechanism?
b) How do you intend to handle pan after grinding process ? by winch ?
c) Positioning (Center) the stone and pan, pan static via fix structure and stone are by track..is this concept
acceptable

I may need to submit the revised file reflecting on the above explanation.

Have nice day....
Collaborating towards excellence..
Thank You :)

Everything steel related on this melangeur will be stainless steel. I will print the components and hand it over to someone else to cut them all, weld them and put everything together.

I guess the answer to your question is the design is a concept

hi, is the design you are after a concept, or do you want designed components. for example, the structure that your grinding machine will sit on will probably be steel or aluminium sections, channel, 'I'-beam or tubulars. where you are getting this manufactured and if material is available, will have an impact on what is used. this is why I ask, concept or detail-design.

Can I use Autodesk Inventor? What output file types are you looking for? Inventor can export to all of the common file types.

Hi, not being able to use other software like 3dsMax,Rhino Solidworks etc. , reduces a lot the possibility to have a good project.

Just an observation, the scrappers are positioned in between the the stones

I attached one more sketch. As the bow spins chocolate gets stuck along the the walls. It is necessary a metal scrapper positioned very close to the bow´s walls to get them back inside the mixture. If you look at the 1st sketch, flip over it 90 degrees to your left, look from right to left and you will get the picture in the Rough Sketch II. Thanks

I attached a rough description of the project. The pan has 30 litres and a diameter of 360 mm. The stones have 100 mm of height and 200 mm in diameter.

hi, do you have any rough sketches indicating size and arrangement, this would help to understand what you are after

HI i need few slides on a mockup for a shop front i'm opening. I need to have 3 main area, On the front counter, bit of space on the left, a hot food display with the GN 1/3 total 6, followed by a hot grill plate around 65/60 followed by cool display for sald ingredient around 9 1/3 gn, so total around 1.1. mtr. Front top a glass 30 cm high with no top see the attache pictures. I have attached photo of the shop today, We need to modify the shop name from Grill and go to "italian street food store, i attache the brand for porpoise. a drawing with the actual measures of the shop. On the back i would remove the top price lists and would put this on the left side leaving the top free. REnedring photo need to be modified with new name and similar counter

iPhone/Android Accessory Design Enhancement
This consumer product is an accessory that provides enhanced usability to mobile phones and tablets. The latest design of our "Band" is two parts: 1. Round Base that attaches to the back of the phone (made from a low-friction polymer like polyethylene) 2. A "band" that overlaps with the Round Base (1) and rotates/spins around it. (made from polyethylene over-molded with rubber to provide elasticity to the top band part) The rubber part of the band elongates so that an individual's finger can be placed underneath the band and above the base. The elasticity part is important so it can accommodate different finger sizes. The product allows users to hold the phone more securely. Our current challenge is the design of the "Band" (2). This is where we need the help. As shown in the attached STL file for the Band, there are two circles on either side of the flap that holds the finger down. These circle were put there to provide some added elasticity to the rubber piece. While it does functionally work well, the current design does not look durable or very elegant. We'd like to rethink the band design to make it look incredibly user-friendly, allowing the band to stretch upright to accommodate different finger sizes, while being functionally superior to the current design. Designer will need to provide STL files for my prototyping company to be able to work with.

Smart City Sensor Wall Mount - IoT
We are building a "smart city" type sensor that will be located underground. It will have a wired connection to a Cellular Communicator that uses cellular networks to send the sensor data to cloud server. City employees will mount the Cellular Communicator to walls around the city so that it gets a strong signal. It could be mounted to the wall of a commercial or residential building, in urban or rural environments. Pictures of the Cellular Communicator are attached. We need a design for a plastic Wall Mount Bracket that will be used to attach the Cellular Communicator to the wall. We don't want it to stand out, instead we want most people not to notice it, and homeowners to not be bothered by it being mounted on their side or back wall! It should be easy to manufacture by injection mold, and simple to install. Please provide image files and any neutral CAD file format showing your Wall Bracket design. Images should show how the Communicator fits into the Bracket, and how the Bracket fits against a wall.
