2016 Fsae Electric Vehicle Pedal Assembly Design, Evan Beery Jan 2016

2016 Fsae Electric Vehicle Pedal Assembly Design, Evan Beery

Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects

The purpose of this project was to design and produce the pedal box assembly for the electric formula SAE racecar team’s 2016 racecar. To complete this project, a working 3D model and corresponding blueprints were created. Materials were selected, machined, and assembled. FEA software was used to verify the design. The final step was manufacturing and assembling all the components together and placing them in the racecar. The precision machining was completed on campus at the University of Akron, and was considered a vital measurable of the project.

This assembly allows for the actuation of two aluminum pedals. One pedal …
