title. water pump project

course. design for manufacturing

semester. fall 2016

Project: Design and manufacture a simple centrifugal water pump. The pump will be required to operate under a defined set of parameters. Each lab group will be provided a DC motor and 9V power supply. One component must involve CNC milling and one component must involve rapid prototyping. The pump must be capable of moving water from one bucket to another against one foot of head, over a duration of three minutes.
