Contest Brief

Previous Freelancer created a model in Solidworks with the correct dimensions & specifications.

You are simply editing a file and adding some artistic elements- we want our product to look modern.

Do Not Change:
1) Size
2) Screw holes at the 4 corners
3) Key lock and small 'door'
4) USB port
5) 6 LED holes (left side)


The main thing that we are looking for is a cosmetic change to the panel, so for example consider lines, curves or any other design element that gives the panel a nicer look and feel. Adding the logo to be embossed in the plastics is of course part of that. Just for reference, embossing should normally be around 0.2mm deep.

**Note** The area around the lock needs to remain there because it houses the locking mechanism and the small door that closes and locks down. It would be possible to adjust the appearance though by extending the raised area, adding ribs, lines or something else to make it look better.
The area behind where it says "lock" has the sliding door (130718 Original Front Panel). That area needs to be at least 3mm high/deep even if it slopes off towards the top and bottom edges.

130718 Original Front Panel shows how it first started, since then we have changed some holes. You can see where the label will be, and the locking mechanism as it was first designed so I have attached it.


I've attached some of the other designs to show you some previous versions. These are close, but we are hoping for a more modern design.

Attached are:
Original Design- to show lock mechanism
Plastic Face Plate Version 7 - close, but we need to be able to see the LEDs from more of an angle
Plastic Face Plate Version 8 - very close
Plastic Face Plate Version 8-- Solidworks file- this is what you will edit & resubmit
AmeriCam Logo- if you need it
Lock area of TC front panel- just in case you need measurements
