Designing a clock

Design a clock using CAD software (preferrably Creo). The
assessment will be based on the submission of two pages (PDF) of A4 annotated and
dimensioned drawings created using the CAD software. On one page you should have the
complete clock assembly, showing how all of the components fit together, and on the
second page you should give the design and specification of each individual clock
component.
Please see the example drawing that gives an idea of what you should be aiming for.
The marking scheme for the assessment is based on the incorporation and means of
implementation of certain clock features. These features are given below and are referred
to in the rubric on the following page.
The clock must include the following 5 critical design features:
• It must be an analogue clock
• Face / dial with markings to at least show the time in hours. The markings do not
have to be numbers, they can be whatever you want.
• 3 clock hands – a second hand, minute hand, and hour hand.
• The Maastricht University triangles logo (see below) should be somehow
incorporated into the design. Note - the Triangles are isosceles, with the two equal
angles being approximately 65°. The official font is Thesis Sans Bold, but Arial Bold is
a reasonable and readily available replacement.
• It should be possible to determine the correct orientation of the clock – i.e. from
which way it is supposed to be viewed to determine the time.
Creativity is welcome, and your design may be anything from classically style to avant-garde.
Enjoy yourselves and explore the possibilities of the software.
Drawing Requirements
• The drawing should have one page showing the fully assembled clock
• The fully assembled clock should be displayed with front, top, side, and isometric /
trimetric views.
• The page with the fully assembled clock shows a detailed view section of the clock
assembly – i.e. where the hands are connected to the clock face.
• The second drawing page shows a front view of the hour, minute, and second hands,
clearly displaying each component individually.
• The second drawing page shows the clock main body, displaying front, side and top
views. It should also be possible to see the direction and thickness / depth of
incorporated design features.
