Abstract

Chassis jig is needed to ensure that the welded chassis components does not warp or deform during welding process. Through concept screening and concept scoring, multiple design of chassis jigs is narrowed down to next development process. This study aims to design a chassis jig for the fabrication of student car competition chassis. The desired result of this design process is chassis jig with the ability to manufacture a wide variety of student competition car chassis.

Highlights

  • Students of mechanical engineering programs are often challenged to study implementations

  • This study summarizes the design of chassis jig that accommodate several kind of chassis that suite for each competition

  • The lower part useful for storing jigs/fixtures, welding equipment, and power tools that required during chassis fabrication

Summary

Introduction

Students of mechanical engineering programs are often challenged to study implementations. Student competition is one of study implementations. Those competitions drive students to build something based on what they learn in class. Formula Student (FS), Shell Eco Marathon (SEM), Kompetisi Mobil Hemat Energi (KMHE), and Kompetisi Mobil Listrik Indonesia (KMLI) are examples where student need to build cars to compete. Car chassis is the important thing to ensure vehicle stability and driver/passenger safety. There are several types of chassis, ladder frame, space frame, and monocoque. A lot of student teams apply space frame chassis for their cars. Space frame chassis is chosen due to simpler manufacturability and cost effectiveness
