Another week, another update
















Yesterday marked the end of the Level II assignments for TSGC. We submitted our midterm report, power point presentation, and our patch design.


Included in our midterm report were pictures of our urethane drum concept generated in AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor. They're posted above.


We have also been in contact with Dr. Srinivasan (Lamar University's materials science professor and consultant for materials for all Senior Design projects) about our urethane drum concept, and he approves of our material choice. However, he suggested that we research how urethane deterioration is affected by low pressure environments. As soon as we have this information, we'll post it, and keep everyone informed.


This week, we are attempting to contact Allen Bradley with regards to controls for the system. We're compiling a list of our requirements now, and that list will be soon be sent to them, and they should be able to provide us with all the extra information (and hopefully supplies) that we need.


Thanks for keeping up with us, stay tuned for more.
