• All parts were modified 4 times as per the objective using SolidWorks 2021.
• The group also added a belt and pulley mechanism to use the output.
• Working simulation was also added to show the movement of all parts including the piston.
• The Static Analysis and Thermal Analysis was performed on selective parts.
• The primary objective of learning the concept of design, drafting, assembly, simulation and
finite element analysis was achieved by this project.
