Recently, I worked on designing a crankshaft model based on an engineering drawing using CAD. This exercise helped me strengthen my understanding of several key mechanical design concepts: • Reading and interpreting technical drawings• Creating parametric sketches and expressions• Modeling complex shaft geometry• Designing crank webs and crank pins• Applying proper fillets for stress reduction• […]

I recently designed and modeled a Pulley Bracket Assembly using Siemens NX as part of my mechanical design practice. The assembly consists of the following components:• U-Bracket (SUS304 Stainless Steel)• Pulley Wheel (Ø50 mm)• Hex Bolt M8 × 40• Deep Groove Bearings (608ZZ – 2 Nos)• Circlip / Retaining Ring• Washers During this project I
