This week I
worked on the second presentation and on reworking calculations for the
redesign of the braking system. Originally we planned on moving the disc brake
along with the disc caliper and finding a way to fit it within our system, but
we are now looking at integrating a band brake for the main brake system. The
reason we chose to look at the band brake is mostly due to being compact and
simple system of brakes. I am currently looking in making sure the correct size
of the brakes will function for our bogie and will quickly sketch the CAD
models for the assembly.
