SPITFIRE JET FIGHTER

 CHAPTER SEVEN: AEROSPACE


The Hail Mary Operator

    At this juncture I was just perusing different CAD online platforms searching for a worthy CAD drawing challenge. A drawing that will be complex enough for me to test how proficient I really am with CAD. Then a thought came to me: to model an aircraft. I choose to draw a prototype of 'The Spitfire' - the British jet fighter used during the second world war.  

    I nicknamed mine 'The Hail Mary -1' , abridged and inscribed on the body of the aircraft as "HM -1". This is so name with respect to the popular colloquial: "a Hail Mary operation/method" signifying any last-ditch effort after several previous abortive efforts. General Norman Schwarzkopf described his strategy during the Persian Gulf War to bypass the bulk of Iraqi forces in Kuwait by attacking in a wide left sweep through their rear as a "Hail Mary" plan.

    Hence my own version of the spitfire, the HM - 1, will be used as a last resort Warcraft, to annihilate seemingly invincible enemies, and bring about an unprecedented victory.

THE CENTRIFUGE DRIER

Image
 CHAPTER THIRTEEN: THE CENTRIFUGE DRIER From our laboratory chemistry we all know what a centrifuge is and what it does, and how it does it. A centrifuge is a device in which a mixture of denser and lighter materials (normally dispersed in a liquid) is separated by being spun about a central axis AT HIGH SPEED. Yes! I had to capitalize that, for it is in its great rotary speed that the centrifuge achieves its primary task of separation.  In this particular machine, same high speec principle is used to dry, instead of separate. A typical real life application of this is our washing machine. During the drying stage of the laundry, the machine spins at very very great speeds, that throws out moist from the fabric. In the very same way, the machines dries inputs to it.  The machine full set up is not completed yet though.

FIBRE SEPARATOR

 CHAPTER TWELVE: THE FIBRE SEPARATOR This machine is yet another player in the family of Oil milling industry and machines. After the digester press is done extracting the pulp from the palm fruit, the by-product of the palm kernel and its fibres are next received by this machine. Like the name goes, the FIBRE SEPARATOR sifts the mixture of palm kernel and its fibres. The fibre chaffs drops down, through a hole under the machine, while the unshelled nuts comes out through the outlet in front of the machine.  See model views and dimensions.

THE FEED MILL EXTRUDER

Image
 CHAPTER ELEVEN: THE FEED MILL EXTRUDER The Feed mill Extruder is an agro-industrial machine for processing feed for livestock such as fishes and poultry. It uses multiple combination of electric motors that drives a screw conveyor, to press a feed mixture through a series of tiny perforations at the end of a heated and insulated drum. From the other end of the drum, a delicious, attractive strip of pasta (like your spaghetti), is forced out. After drying the pasta, it becomes hardened and crispy; it is then bagged and ready to be served to your livestock.  Facing/adjacent to the extrusion orifice of the drum is a smaller motor powering a rotary cutter that slices the extruded continuous strip of pasta as they form out of the chamber.  Enjoy the some of the views of this awesome industrial machine that I have drawn.  😀😀.
