Mechanical Engineer for Precision 2-DOF Dual-Mechanism Assembly (Hybrid Plastic/Metal) Ended

About the job

Development of a mirrored dual-mechanism assembly. The project focuses on multi-axis kinematics and a precision adjustment system for elastic tension.

Required Mechanical Expertise:

2-DOF Gimbals: Experience with nested pivots and multi-axis rotational assemblies.

Cable-Driven Systems: Proficiency in designing cable routing, pulleys, and tensioning layouts.

Spring/Elastic Mechanics: Calculating non-linear resistance and torque ratios using elastic elements.

Precision Centering: Design of mechanical hard-stops and zero-point stability systems (Lost Motion/Pre-tensioning).

Lead Screw Integration: Implementation of manual adjustment knobs for linear-to-tension conversion.

Manufacturing Knowledge:

Hybrid Design: Combining 3D-printed housings (PETG/ABS) with load-bearing metal axles/plates.

Standard Hardware: Integration of off-the-shelf bearings, fasteners, and lead screws.

Deliverables:

Parametric 3D Model: Fusion 360 (.f3d) or STEP.

Full BOM: Detailed list of all hardware components.
