Objective: Design an automatic machine for cutting corrugated (grooved) tubes with high precision.
Department: Engineering. Profile: Mechanical, Mechatronics, or Electromechanical Engineer. Number of interns: 02. Duration: 06 Months.
Main Tasks / Responsibilities
Functional study and definition of the specifications for the automatic grooved/corrugated tube cutting machine.
3D mechanical design of the machine using SolidWorks or Autodesk Inventor and sizing of mechanical components (guiding, transmission, motorization, sensors).
Development of the automated control logic using Siemens PLC and simulation of the operation to optimize the cutting cycle.
Required Skills & Tools
Mechanical design experience with SolidWorks or Autodesk Inventor.
Siemens PLC programming knowledge and general automation experience (sensors, actuators, control logic).
Understanding of mechanical component sizing: guiding systems, transmissions, motorization and sensor integration.
Expected Deliverables
Complete functional specification and design documentation for the machine.
3D CAD models and mechanical calculations/sizing for guiding, transmission and motorization.
Siemens PLC program implementing the control logic, plus simulation results and an optimized cutting cycle.
