GASKET
For this project, the face of a metal plate with holes and pins was measured with calipers and a dimensioned sketch was drawn. From this sketch, a CAD model of a gasket that would fit on top of the metal plate was created using OnShape. This CAD model was uploaded into GibbsCAM and code was produced for the CNC mill in BU's EPIC workshop. The CNC mill manufactured the gasket out of 1/16"-thick, PVC plastic. After manufacturing, the part was cleaned up by hand. The deliverables were the dimensioned sketch, a CAD model of the part, the manufactured gasket, and this portfolio entry. The most important aspect of this project was accuracy of measurement and translation of that into a manufactured part.
