Projeto de um drone utilizando técnicas de engenharia

Abstract

The drone project integrated various engineering techniques, ranging from the application of additive manufacturing to the assembly of the physical prototype. The use of additive manufacturing not only reduced material waste but also allowed for efficient prototyping of the drone, providing production flexibility for quick and specific adjustments according to project needs. Mass reduction, achieved through topological optimization, played a fundamental role in ensuring energy efficiency and durability without compromising structural resistance. This approach enabled the elimination of redundant material, resulting in a final product that is lighter yet robust. With the assistance of CATIA V5, precise and detailed modeling was possible, facilitating visualization and refinement of the design before the production of the physical prototype. This stage was crucial to ensure the accuracy and quality of the final product, optimizing the drone manufacturing process and avoiding errors and rework. The assembly of the physical prototype not only provided a valuable opportunity to test and validate drone specifications, ensuring compliance with performance and functionality requirements established during the design phase but also allowed for the identification of improvements and fine-tuning, contributing to the efficiency and quality of the final product.
