Abstract

This project have been conducted on designing and development of an integrated quality inspection gauge for width slot spur gear. The purpose of this project is to solve industry selected problem issue in term of inspection gauge. Problem statement specify on measuring the width of gear slot to get same value along the straight slot. This statement may be solved using high technology device such as Height Gauge to get more accurate reading. There are limitation the industry facing which is maintenance and transportation equipment to transfer heavy spur gear into Quality Inspection laboratory. Quick solving is to create a portable gauge where capable to inspect directly at manufacturing site. Resulting produces a prototype of gauge in solving the problem statement given. There are step or procedures that must be taken first to achieve the results of the design. Quality function deployment and Pugh Method are one of the method research that used in this project. Three product, such as gauge, jig and container, designed for this project in order to solve the issue. Each product uses a different development method. Start off with the gauge focusing on Quality Function Deployment method. QFD practicing House of Quality to get clear specification are from the voice of customer exactly from the industry. Going through at least four design concept selected using Screening and Scoring Matrix using Pugh method for engineering characteristic and design evaluation. The finalise design are selected fortunately it is similar to the current gauge but it being used for other purposes. The saying goes “for various purposes, use various tools”. Next is for Jig design development applying Industrial Development (ID) method. First stage, there are four sketching phase such as investigation, explorative, explanatory and persuasive. The final design from persuasive sketches concept designs are fabricates mainly stainless steel material. Unpleasant information simple test collected. This is where improvements to the layout are important. Advanced 3d printing is one of the option are selected for fabrication improvements. Afterword, final design are more rigid and slim compare the original design. Continue to next product is tool box used to protect the gauge set and jig for the final product. The dimension of the box are design based on the layout of gauge and jig position arrangement. The box will then be forwarded to the local craftsman to make the box. Avoiding shaking factors inside the box of gauge and jig. To hold the gauge and jig positions, a sponge with insert layout of gauge and jig for the insert format is made. All development phase used SolidWork software illustrated the design before proceed to manufacturing phase. The testing method used systematically extract data practically from slot gear to get accurate readings for analysis. This new product is to help any gear industry during inspection phase with low cost low tool and portable.
