About the job
MECHANICAL 24H HORSE FEEDING SYSTEM
Background
ÖzerBerg Gård is a ranch in Sweden specializing in horse care. The ranch is managed by Lukas Özer and Filippa Berg.
Project
The CAD-specialist will be responsible for developing a comprehensive CAD drawing for an automated horse feeding system. The device is intended to “drop hay from a shelf” for a horse four times per day using a fully mechanical system controlled by a mechanical timer operating on a 24-hour cycle. Imagine a regular bookshelf with four shelves packed with hay, at a certain time the timer (with the help of springs and mechanical timing) releases each shelf so it drops hay to the floor where as the horse can feed. The design must clearly illustrate the use of robust materials that can withstand challenges such as kicks, bites, and other physical impacts. Furthermore, the design should incorporate weather-resistant features, achieved through the use of stainless steel, durable plastics, or other suitable materials, while also being cost-effective and inexpensive to manufacture.
In addition, the CAD-specialist will receive background material and pre-existing drawings that detail parts of the product’s functionality. The expectation is to either expand upon these initial designs or develop independent alternatives that can be compared with the original drawings. We will provide feedback throughout the project to address any queries.

Objective
Designing, building, and evaluating a model that meets the practical demands of the ranch environment.
Method
Design and Documentation: Develop a detailed CAD drawing that demonstrates the functionality, robustness, and cost-efficiency of the device.
Your Qualifications
Mechanical CAD-drawing experience is a plus..
Effective communication skills, written and verbal (in English or Swedish).
We are OK with 2D drawings as long as the are good enough to provide for printing without loss of crucial printing information.
