As the AMSAT engineering team prepares to build an engineering prototype of its GOLF 3U CubeSat with deployable solar panels, i
ts mechanical engineers could use a bit of help creating drawings for the satellite solar panels, antennas, and associated smal
l parts. You will work directly with the engineer who created the parts.
When asked to make a drawing, the engineer will provide you with the AutoCAD Inventor file of the part plus the assembly model
where the part is used. From the assembly model you can learn the function of the assembly and the role of-the part in the asse
mbly. This information will help you determine how to dimension the part and chose tolerances so that it is machined properly.
Also, the engineer will provide written instructions for guidance and be available to answer questions.
If you have some spare time to create about 20 drawings, each consisting of a latch, spring, bushing, structural post, antenna
mount, PCBs, etc., AMSAT engineers could use your help to stay on schedule. The time estimate that a drawing might require is 1
-3 hours of time. Their modelling software is AutoCAD Inventor. They can provide access to an Inventor license if you need it.
For more information please send your email with a short description of your experience to volunteer [at] amsat [dot] org.
[ANS thanks AMSAT for the above information.]
