Worked on mechanical design reinforcement within the UBC-Snowbots/Chassis repository, focusing on improving the durability and mission reliability of the mini rover’s bogie system. Addressed potential shear failure by increasing the thickness of the BogieAdapter, proactively enhancing structural integrity to align with reliability KPIs and reduce the risk of hardware downtime. Utilized CAD tools and mechanical design principles to implement these changes, delivering the updated component as a SLDPRT file. The work demonstrated a methodical approach to risk mitigation through targeted hardware modifications, emphasizing careful analysis of failure modes and practical application of design improvements within a collaborative engineering environment.
