Aerospace Project: Wingbox Design (2018) This project starts off with a design brief and a goal: Design a Wingbox structure, such that it can handle loads up to 30kN without failing by applying the mechanical knowledge you've gained. This Wingbox design brief is derived from the Boeing V22 Osprey. The design would be tested in a testing set up to prove if the applied knowledge was sound. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/75a7eaff-2e47-4eda-aa7a-d5a8d83c00be/first-buckle2.jpg Portfolio - Aerospace Project: Wingbox Design (2018) The critical weak points of the wing box were identified in order to target in a redesign. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/304354ed-2e65-480e-bcd4-a58ca6ec60e3/IMG_3916.jpg Portfolio - Aerospace Project: Wingbox Design (2018) The design process started with a literature review into the mechanics of the structure and the considerations that need to be made. The choice was between two different designs: I-beam and hollow box structures. The hollow box was chosen to counteract the torques in wingboxes during flight. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/cc0e3e66-5d33-4b81-bef9-b557cd864ac3/toppanelredesignDRAWING.jpg Portfolio - Aerospace Project: Wingbox Design (2018) The top panel was determined to be the weak spot. A redesign using the empirical data from the first test was used to determine the new design parameters. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/5d81ebcc-78d7-473a-8d04-0e05d6bc2e7e/Drawing_WINGBOX.jpg Portfolio - Aerospace Project: Wingbox Design (2018) After the design was finished using the mechanical theory and design requirements.

I wanted to try and apply some kind of mechanism in its design. There were multiple ideas on how the mechanism could work. As there were two to be made, I conceived the idea to try out both mechanisms. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/5f87d149-c011-4e9e-b271-3b7675d1154c/IMG_0239.jpg Portfolio - Personal Project 1: Mechanical Showcasing Boxes (2020) Woodwork was mainly used in creating the embodiment of the idea as this was accessible and I had done projects in the past with wood. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/f9c3ca75-774c-40c7-a256-12370505e08b/IMG_0243.jpg Portfolio - Personal Project 1: Mechanical Showcasing Boxes (2020) The first jewellery box contained a single gear elevator mechanism.

This required the need for self-tapping screws to fasten the handle, destroying it in the process. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/5fe0ecb0-e787-43c5-a907-b9a3c531e4ee/Schermafbeelding+2024-04-11+094726.png Portfolio - Personal Project 2: Orange Juice Handle Repair (2021) Within SolidWorks I created a prototype of the juice handle. One of the first features is the use of bolts to attach the handle to the machine. In order to hide the bolts, the threads were 3D printed. A number of iterations were created to test the feasibility of this technique. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/e59f5b63-73d2-4c9b-83d1-ecadaad51f62/DESIGN+EVO+MAIKY+-+Frame+54.jpg Portfolio - Personal Project 2: Orange Juice Handle Repair (2021) One problem that arose during prototyping is a result of 3D printing thin walls on top of a solid. This caused a slight overhang on the handle. This was remedied through testing rapid prototypes and creating the correct offset within the model. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/a054f639-42e2-40f0-b49a-57d3709875c2/exploded+handle+with+hero+shot.png Portfolio - Personal Project 2: Orange Juice Handle Repair (2021) After perfecting the features through rapid prototyping and iterations, the juice handle was ready for production. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/4984f5a3-8d14-4590-97c9-98996d6ddfd0/DESIGN+EVO+MAIKY+-+Frame+55.jpg Portfolio - Personal Project 2: Orange Juice Handle Repair (2021) The juice handle worked perfectly and was made of sturdy PETG using 3D printing.

This platform houses the item to be scanned. The electronics and mechanisms to carry and lift the phone is located on a carriage which is wheel driven by a DC motor. The phone was lifted by a stepper motor in a pulley-carriage setup. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/1712865978088-EWV8ZLUA8YLL9OSVM1JE/scanner%252Bexploded.jpg Portfolio - IDE Project 3: 3D Scanners (2023) The 3D scanner build for the Honours module would be based upon the same principle as a carriage turning around a platform. However, in the second design, a 3D printed gear would be combined with stepper motors for increased accuracy and precision. The second design uses a motorized gear carriage to lift the integrated camera. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/ef160398-64e0-4aa4-87d4-d024c912fb23/DESIGN+EVO+MAIKY+-+Frame+54.jpg Portfolio - IDE Project 3: 3D Scanners (2023) The first design was put together using given parts. This meant that the integration of the different components went smoothly. However, integrating the phone into this system proved a challenge. First, a touchscreen tapper was used, but due to the need of a ground this was unfeasible. A solution was found in a Bluetooth clicker operated by a servo motor. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/819f83b3-b3ab-4c15-b0ba-01d89cf1f536/DESIGN+EVO+MAIKY+-+Frame+55.jpg Portfolio - IDE Project 3: 3D Scanners (2023) The second design required a vastly different approach to integrating the functionalities. As a Raspberry Pi was used, a more integral understanding was needed of the architecture to build the system. However, this allowed for a more complete integration between different systems. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/c1b71496-828a-43ac-82aa-b94063419553/afbeelding%2816%29.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/0b6c745d-cfc6-4880-9b68-515c003e5cfd/Test+Pencil+Sharpener+.jpg https://www.maikylin.com/portfolio/project-one-ephnc-6ac9w-fp6f6-9wx9c-5btda-lgh32-6rh7a-kppkz monthly 0.5 2026-03-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/65f2bbfb2705db798e703eea/94c9184a-818f-47ab-912c-6297e7be75da/Vanderlande-Original-Visual%281%29.jpeg Portfolio - Robotics Minor Project: Autonomous Warehouse Robot (2023) It started with a vision by Vanderlande.
