1. Improvement of the L3 Testing Rack By: AakashBalaji SusmitSukthankar

2. Product Evaluation What in the testing rack can affect the amount of weight stress outputted by this product onto it’s handler? Size? Shape? Amount of Parts?

3. Product Evaluation Materials used? Method of Carry? Amount Handled at One Time?

5. Number of Plugs must be ≥ 99.

6. Size must be within a fixed area.

7. Non-magnetic material with the exception of hardware must be used.

8. Constant distance between units.

11. Circular

13. Various Magnesium Alloys

14. Various Aluminum Alloys

16. Our Decision We decided to remove the steel base of the testing rack. It added unnecessary weight. We created a storage unit for the testing racks in which 4 could be carried or stored at a time reducing overall weight. We also replaced many Aluminum and Steel parts with Garolite because of the lower density 2.70 g/cm³ VS. 1.73 g/cm³

17. Mass Analysis of the Testing Rack (Before) Final Mass: 12.427 lbs.

18. Mass Analysis of the Testing Rack (After) Final Mass: 5.456lbs.
