About the Company
Cad and Cart (Spire3d Technologies PVT LTD) is a Pune-based start-up company
working in the field of industrial machining and process automation. The company
aims to establish its trademark in the field of manufacturing by optimizing the overall
manufacturing process right from providing an instant quotation to delivering the final
product on time by managing the logistics and manufacturing the product through a
trusted vendor. The founder of the company, Mr. Mahesh Takey is himself a
Vishwakarma Institute of Technology mechanical engineering alumnus who in his
college days not only led the Baja team of VIT, Pune but also learned various
manufacturing processes like welding and CNC programming all by himself
developing an interest in the machining industry.
As of today, the company is mainly working and researching in four domains, each of
which focuses on providing a unique platform and opportunity to the customers
according to their requirements. Designing as a Service (DAS) sector focuses on
helping new start-ups and new companies with an option to create a mechanical design
on a contract basis. Design Manufacture Sell (DMS) is an e-commerce platform for
Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, Affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University, Department of Mechanical
Project 8|Page
start-ups
Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, Affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University, Department of Mechanical
Project 9|Page
and small businesses to grow and help them put their products in the online
marketplace and reach out to customers. PMAS is a service-based platform through
which the company contracts with other companies to make their project plans and
work on their drawings and CAD parts for optimization and cost planning before
manufacturing it. Lastly, On Demand Manufacturing (ODM) is a sector that focuses on
providing customers the flexibility to get their components manufactured at the best
market price possible.
ODM sector of the Spire3D promises their customers to provide perfect and guaranteed
machining in time. The first phase of the ODM involves providing customers with an
instant quotation using the raw CAD model of the component and other basic
necessary information, including the raw material specifications and the expected type
of machining. Once the guaranteed quote is generated, the company takes care of the
ordering, inventory management, and sourcing for all the parts needed for the
Customer Order. The company then handles all order logistics and communications,
making sure that the order arrives on time. The company also accepts the customer's
inbound shipment of other items and manages that inventory.
As a part of the first phase of ODM, the company is working on developing an accurate
method for calculating the minimum time required for various manufacturing processes
to give their customers a real and practical cost estimate to work with. One such
manufacturing process is the CNC and VMC machining, the cost of which requires a

Project 12 | P a g
Manufacturing Costs
Manufacturing cost calculation is more of an art than a science as the cost of various
manufacturing processes varies from vendor to vendor for the same product. Hence, it
becomes very important to find a method to the madness and try to chalk out how machining
costs are calculated so we can move towards generalizing the costing characteristics of the
machining processes. To understand the costing Manufacturing Process can be broadly
divided into two categories - Additive and Subtractive Manufacturing.
Types of Manufacturing
Additive Manufacturing
Additive manufacturing is the process of creating an object by building it one layer at a time.
The work floor is empty at first and then layer by layer decomposition of material part is created.
Technically, additive manufacturing can refer to any process where a product is created by
building something up, such as molding, but it typically refers to 3-D printing.
For Additive Manufacturing the cost depends on the material that is deposited by the machine.
The volume of the part is generally obtained from the cad model. This volume is then
multiplied by the density of the material used for manufacturing cost. This weight is then
Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, Affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University, Department of Mechanical
Project 13 | P a g
multiplied by an
Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, Affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University, Department of Mechanical
Project 14 | P a g
appropriate factor to get the cost of manufacturing. In the case of injection model or sand
moulding the cost of making the mould is also added to the initial cost to give the final costing
of the process.
Subtractive manufacturing or subtractive fabrication involves cutting away from a solid block
of material. It could be a block of, for example, metal, plastic, or wood. A milling machine
cutting/hollowing out a piece of metal or plastic is an example of subtractive manufacturing.
Subtractive manufacturing by manually cutting the material is also possible. Examples of
subtractive manufacturing processes are laser cutting, water jet cutting, CNC machining, etc.
2D machining processes
In this type of machining process, the tool moves only on a plane is the motion is only
along the x and y axis. For this type of process, the perimeter of the part is calculated.
Other major factors that affect the cost are the thickness of the plate, the starting point and
the cutting length. Using these factors, a general formula is derived which is then used for
the calculation of machining cost.

Project 15 | P a g
3D machining processes
In this type of machining process, the tool moves in x, y and z direction as well hence the
machining is also done in the direction of depth. For calculating the machining cost of this
type of process, first, standard software is chosen, like WorkNC and on it, the step file of
the part is uploaded. Using various rough and fine cuts the machining time of the part is
then estimated. This machining time is then multiplied by a certain factor to give the
machining cost. The material cost can also be added to this cost if the vendor provides
end- to-end solutions.

Project 16 | P a g
Geometric Modelling:
● Geometric Modelling describes the shape of an object.
● In surface modelling, an object is represented with a set of surface patches. The most
popular surface patches are planes, ruled surfaces, paraboloid, bicubic surfaces, B-
spline surfaces, Non-uniform Rational B-spline (NURB) surfaces, Coons surfaces, etc.
● In B-rep, an object is represented by a set of vertices, edges, and faces. In CSG, the
object is constructed from primitives of closed surfaces (such as spheres, cubes, prisms
and cones) with set theory and Euler operators.
Surface Analysis:
● Surface Analysis investigates the intrinsic shape and properties of an object surface,
such as surface curvature and continuity.
● These features are commonly visualized with the aid of a colour raster device based on
a color-coded map.
Heuristic Planning:
● Heuristic Planning defines preliminary parameters and operation sequences based on
surface analysis and machining requirements.
● For instance, it determines the shape and size of tools to be used, and the number of
roughing and finishing processes.
● Here “error-free” means that the generated tool paths guarantee that the machined
surface is within the predefined tolerance. Geometric simulation and verification can be
used to detect errors in tool paths.
Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, Affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University, Department of Mechanical
Project 17 | P a g
● Because of the risk of human error, tool paths should be simulated, verified and
corrected before actual machining.
● They are the models of the interaction between the cutting tool and the workpiece.
● Machining efficiency and surface quality depend on factors such as the spindle speed,
federate, tool deflection, tool wear, etc.
Comparison:
● It determines the differences between the design surface and the machined surface.
Machining Cost:
Post Processor:
● It creates the NC instruction for an individual type of CNC milling machine and
downloads it to the machine to produce workpieces.
WORKNC CAM software is the premier automatic CNC software for surface or solid
models in mould, die, and tooling businesses for 2 to 5-axis CNC programming.
WORKNC is used by all Western, Japanese, and Korean automotive makers and well-
known OEMs from a range of other industries.

1. Design and Development of test rig:
Objectives-
● To Design a test rig to hold blades and other components like a generator, flywheel,
and E-CVT.
● To prepare so that it will withstand load and can perform all the required tests.
● To Design a fully functioning E-CVT with all electronics parts ready.
● To design a Flywheel for respective power output.
● To design a belt pulley system.
Theory-
● This project includes quite a new idea of using CVT in windmills instead of
traditional gearboxes.
● The main idea behind using CVT and flywheel is that windmills should
generate power even at low wind speeds.
● Also new blades called UNITRON –UE22plus are used to increase efficiency.
● A single test rig contains a set of 3 such types of blades together which are
connected to the E-CVT via a Belt and pulley system.
● The actuation of CVT is done with the help of a servo motor and Arduino.

● Designing a structure that will hold the total upper structure with blades and other
components such as E-CVT, Flywheel, and generator.
● It is taken care that two sets of rotors must fit in between two ends and should
withstand force due to their weight. (75 mm X 75 mm BOX pipes are chosen.)

● Production Drawings are as per the manufacturing process. like if parts are going to
be manufactured by the laser cut / Water jet process the vendor requires the .DXF file
with a scale of 1:1 is compulsory. For example, below sheet is of size 1550 mm X 480
mm so need to create a custom sheet.

● But for the same sheet size, making it by laser cutting rather than cutting it and then
drilling holes on the M1TR machine takes less cost and mainly less time.
● For parts to be manufactured by the lathe process all diameter dimensions with width
should be given. The same goes for the milling manufacturing process.

Conclusion-
● I was able to learn/ improve my command over software like Solidworks and
Ansys since this task was allotted to me at the start of my internship.
● It gave me a chance to interact with different people, for ask about the
checkpoints that they follow.
● Learned the importance of GD&T.
● It improved my visualization and inspection power while checking the parts.
● This project helped me to know about how manufacturing happens in industry.
● Learned about the different manufacturing processes in-depth.

Project 28 | P a g
Phase One- Design Changes:
● The first manufacturing process that comes into mind after considering the size is
rolling the 25 mm sheet circularly and then welding, The Second manufacturing
process is taking OEM pipe of standard sizes near the required diameter and using
the Turning operation to get the required size.
● Manufacturing by the rolling operation is cost-effective as compared to the turning
operation, but taking into consideration the strength factor, manufacturing by
turning operation is a good choice.
● But considering the pressure inside the cylinders (up to 100 Bars) and requirements
we decided to go with the turning operation.

Fig. 2.4 Difference between seamless and welded pipe.
● Each tank has a flange which is a lid that closes from the top, it has two Holders,
which are there for lifting purposes. Initially, these two holders and flange are to be
manufactured from a single plate but it adds up to more material cost, Extra
machining, more wastage of raw materials more time, and more money.
● So instead of manufacturing it from a single block flange is made up of a separate
block and just two holders were made from the small materials and both of them are
welded together at the end.

Phase Two- Finalizing Manufacturing Process with Production Drawings and
Material Procurement:
Raw material is SS 304 for all parts except the tank stand has MS. Extra 5 mm tolerances
are given for all raw materials.
● Most parts were done on the lathe machine only, with 24mm ID holes on the
periphery. but for accuracy purposes, the holes were manufactured using VMC
machining.

3. Manufacturing of Fuel Injectors:
Introduction -
● For the same company EtherealX these parts were to be manufactured. total of 5
sets were manufactured.
● LOX article (Blue colored part shown in the above figure) injects the primary
fluid (Shown in green colored below image) through the slots and the holes, RP
article (Black colored part shown in the above figure) injects the secondary
fluids (Red colored in below image) with the help of the gap of 0.95 mm
between the two articles.
● These injectors are to be made for prototyping; this part will be connecting to
the total fuel tank assembly of previous project, with help of flanges. And has
total width of 280 mm by 232.19 mm
Vishwakarma Institute of Technology, Affiliated to Savitribai Phule Pune University, Department of Mechanical
Project 37 | P a g
Fig 3.2 Fuel flow directions
● Two main parts of the injector are lox and RP. LOX injector part has slot
patterns and tapered holes at the bottom from where fuel is going to be
injected.
● As the whole project was a prototype, all 5 injectors differ in no. of slots and
outer diameter by just 0.1 mm.
● The parts are first divided into further parts for ease of manufacture and cost
savings.
Project 38 | P a g
● As all the parts are circular so manufacturing method is chosen as lathe, but during
the manufacturing process the parts are to be made with the SS304 material which
is strong is almost impossible to manufacture the groove using a lathe one reason is
the material another reason being the shape of the groove. Due to taper angle tool
was braking every time.
● So, for manufacturing the groove the VMC machine is used. Due to problems in the
lathe operations. which has increased the cost and due to the problem of the groove the
timeline got delayed by 2 days, but we recovered the 2 days during the welding and
final assembly process.
● After these important tolerances were noted and the important details also.
Project 39 | P a g
● The gap is 0.95 mm which is the most important tolerance to be considered during
manufacturing. it is basically for the secondary fluid.
● The main slots were manufactured using EDM wire-cut due to their small dimensions.
● For that firstly a small hole of 0.6 mm diameter is created using an EDM Drill to pass
the wire for slot cutting but if observed slots are at a particular angle to rotate the body
indexing tool is required.
● There are 5 injectors, injectors with an even number of slots were easy to manufacture
for example to make the holes for 14 slots we just have to make 7 concentric holes on
opposite ends of the cylinder.
● But the injectors with odd number of slots are tricky cause we have to make that
number of holes with particular angles in between them for example for 9 and 13 slot
injectors total of 9 and 13 holes were created by rotating 9 and 13 times respectively.
● Considering the above points indexing fixture is designed for 13 13-slot injectors, a
fixture with 13 faces was designed for each face to resemble the 13 holes to
manufacture.
● The next two figures explain how the manufacturing is done for both of the injectors.

● The LOX articles follow 1.5-inch BSP threading, while the RP-1 articles use 1-inch
BSP threading. It's essential that the inner walls of these articles have a surface finish
of 0.8 Ra.
