1. Final Presentation Zach Hupy Mechanical Engineering Intern
Summer 2014
2. About Me
3. Cylinder Analysis Problems Locate a .052 diameter oil sump
hole Check to make sure oil reed is mounted correctly Check to make
sure plug is in correct location Method Using a sophisticated
camera, one can compare each cylinder against a master for
Pass/Fail protocol
4. 6/19/2015 Cylinder Analysis Cont. Before Reed Installation
Test After Reed Installation Test
5. Prototyping In order to begin solving the problems, a
prototype needed to be built Initially built out of wood with
substitutes for certain specialized components Allowed for easy
modifications in lighting conditions and cylinder placement to find
optimum combination
6. 3D CAD Drawing Pro E Had never used Pro E prior to working
at Briggs & Stratton Acclamation period took a few weeks
Provided a good final design Also drafted each non-purchased part
for machine shop to create
7. 3D CAD Model Video
8. 2D Draft Examples
9. Summary of Experience I enjoyed my project that I was
assigned Learned how to use Pro E Learned some information about
manufacturing and engines in general Would have preferred to work
under a full- time ME as opposed to a Computer Science employee
Will graduate in December 2014 with about a 3.2 GPA
10. Future Plans Will take the GMAT in August and the FE in
October Would love an opportunity to work at Auburn plant again
Plan to get an MBA and possibly an MS in Mechanical Plan to achieve
Professional Engineer status
