Question

PEN HOLDER DESIGN One million (1000000) cylindrical pen holders are to be fabricated using a 6061-T6 aluminum base plate and a pipe. Following are the specifications and data pertaining to this project: Base Metal: 6061-T6 Aluminum for plate and the pipe Filler Metal: 5356 Aluminum Alloy Density of Aluminum: 0.098 lb/inch Base Plate: Circular, Diameter = 4 inch; Plate Thickness = 0.25 inch Tubular Segment: 3 Inch Nominal Diameter Schedule 40 Pipe (OD and ID can be found through internet) Pipe Height: 4 inch Welding Process: Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW) Metal Transfer Mode: Spray Weld Type and Size: Circumferential, 0.25 Inch Fillet Weld (each leg 0.25 inch) Shielding Gas: Mixture of Argon and Helium gas Perform the following tasks: (a) Develop a 2D drawing of plate and pipe assembly (include front and top views) (b) Develop a 3D model using Solidworks (include front, top and isometric views) (C) Include weld symbol that indicates weld type, weld size, and circumferential weld (d) Estimate the quantity of weld metal required to make the weld assuming welding process deposition efficiency 90%. (e) How many wire spools would be required if each spool weighs 20 pounds? (f) What would the total cost of the electrode wire be if each spool costs $138? (g) What would be welding wire cost per weld?
