I'm offering
I am a mechanical design engineer with over 20 years experience.
My main skillset is in designing electronic enclosures using sheet metal and machining manufacturing methods.
I have designed enclosures varying from cost effective commercial PC cases, to bespoke ruggedised consoles.
My most recent work experience has been in the food sorting industry, so I can design hygeienic assemblies, for special purpose machinery.

Contract Mechanical Design Engineer
unknown.
(multiple contract extensions) Buhler UK London
Buhler UK London design and manufacture special purpose optical food and plastic sorting machines.
My role in R&D involves working as part of a project-based design team, designing machine parts and assemblies, with attention paid to ease/cost of manufacture, structural integrity, hygiene, whilst fitting the machines aesthetic.
Working as an R&D Design Engineer I have developed and become experienced in the following areas:
• Designing precision components (sheet-metal and machined) and large complex electro-mechanical assemblies.
• Using Inventor to create 3D CAD models and large assemblies.
• Using FEA analysis and hand calculations as required, to validate design choices.
• Presenting and attending design reviews from the concept stage up to production release.
• Preparing manufacturing drawings (to BS8888) with effective use of GD&T
• Using Rapid prototyping machines.
• Liaising with suppliers to obtain competitive quotes and ordering prototype parts.
• Building the prototype assemblies.
• Working with Manufacturing to resolve issues through change note system.
• Working with software, hardware, validation and optical engineers to problem solve.
• Creating BOMs using PDMs (Windchill and Smarteam)
• Hygienic machinery design.
• Design for manufacture.
• Preparing technical reports for safety critical components.
• Good time management skills.

Following are the main tasks I conduct:
• Designing fabricated sheet metal and machined parts and assemblies,
• Extensive enclosure design, specialising in ruggedized electronic cases and internals.
• Using Inventor and AutoCAD to create 3D models & 2D production drawings to BS8888
• Developing products with varied clients from through concept, prototype and up to production.
• Providing any required after-sales support.
• Managing a small team, producing work to lists, interpreting data collection, and reporting back to higher management in a weekly meeting.
• Occasionally preparing silkscreen artwork using Corel draw software.
• Estimating and planning using ERP system.
