Card Engineering

It has been quite a long while I had not been updating. As personal time had been shrunk after start working.

My mom always asking me "Actually what your jobs do?", and I always said:" Mom, engineer, design engineer is a Zappalang job", you design, you analysis, you decide, then sub out for fabrication, you schedule, you coordinate, you direct, you source, you troubleshoot, buy off, follow up....everything."

How it works? well, recently I got a personal project for a friend. I guess it can elaborate: everything you can imagine what I need to do to make this card. Is what I did in my job.






While there is a problem with this card, the whole penguin had been elevated around 5-10mm, which I thought it was due to my mistake during the glue curing.

After I setup a CAD in Solidworks, I find out it was actually due to interference when closing the card. It I should glad that I allowed it to elevated before the glue cured, else it would be a card damage instead.

Note that in the video, at the open stage and fully closed stage, there are no interference, what was happened was just seconds before it fully closed.




Engineering is everywhere.
By chance, next time I will discuss other engineering problem in this card.
(I wonder if I declared this as a Engineering problem will be accused for overkill)
