MPOWRD Winter Week 3: Revised Timeline/Budget

lawrence.hipolito Project Achievements, 2016-2017 Manual Patient Operated Wheelchair Rehabilitation Device

This week, we put together our schedule for the quarter. The goal is to manufacture and create a prototype of the wheelchair rehabilitation device that can be detached from the wheelchair and transported independently. The timeline is as follows: For week three, our plan is to deliver the drawings to the tubing fabricator. For week five, we expect to receive the tubing from the fabricator and weld the frame. For week seven, we plan to receive the frame from the powder coating vendor. For week 9, we plan to start the final assembly and have that completed by week 11.

In addition, we revised our ROM (rough order magnitude) budget from last quarter. We allocated $100 to fasteners and $200 to mechanical components such as bearings and cables. In addition, we do not need to allocate money to metal/plastic stock.
