Hi there in August 2018 I starting A Wright Design Ltd, A Mechanical Design Consultancy company offering a wide range of services all of which are listed below. As the director of A Wright Design,I’am a fully qualified time served Mechanical Design/CADCAM Engineer with over 20 years’ experience, both on the shop floor and in a management role as a machine shop supervisor. My professional career focused primarily on Mechanical 3D Design, CNC machining and mechanical maintenance within the Automotive, Aerospace, Nuclear, Oil, Gas and Marine industries sector. I am mechanically minded with a keen eye for detail, and a vast knowledge in mechanical problem solving solutions. I always work to the best of my ability with a can do and open minded attitude.Please use the LinkedIn widget on my profile to view my full CV Our Service Mechanical 2D and 3D Design * Solidworks design, specifically creating 2D engineering drawings, 2D/3D assembly drawings, 3D part modelling ,3D part assemblies, surfacing, sheet metal, weldments, animation and rendering * Autodesk Inventor design and fusion 360, specifically creating 2D engineering drawings, 2D/3D assembly drawings, 3D part modelling ,3D part assemblies, surfacing, sheet metal, weldments, animation and rendering * Problem solving solutions, optimizing the design and material to reduce the cost by up to 30%, depending on the customers requirements. *Designing Cutting tools to improve the product manufacturing *Designing of jigs and fixture for a huge range of machines in the manufacturing industry, for example lifting devices for cranes, CNC machining centres and lathes jigs, CMM fixtures, hydraulic testing jig, welding and robotic welding jigs... *Designing of work holding devices for the manufacturing industry including Robot lifting arms and Addon, Manual and hydraulic clamping devices from vice jaws right the way though to a machining jig with a hydraulic clamp system built in to it .. *Designing Plastic Injection Molding mold’s that can be machined or 3d printed *Many more applications available so don’t hesitate to contact me because if you have the idea i have the knowledge and experience to produce that idea Component and Assembly Simulation Testing
   * Primarily FEA, CFD, MBD i.e flow analysis, vibration analysis, structural simulation, interference and collision analysis, structural part and assembly analysis, and environmental impact analysis. ** many more applications available so don’t hesitate to contact me because if you have the idea i have the knowledge and experience to produce that idea   3D Printing In September 2018 purchased an Industrial 3D printer to offer my clients the option to have a prototype of their design printed. offering a wide range of different materials, the main ones being PLA, ABS, HIPS, PC, TPU, TPE, NYLON, PETG, ASA, PP, Glass Fiber Enforced, Carbon Fiber Enforced, Metal Particles Filled and Wood Filled. My professional 3D printer can offer a large capacity of up to 300 x 300 x 300mm, it can produce superior part quality with an unmatched layer resolution of 0.01mm layer height and dimensional accuracy. With this printer I can offer a number of different services, including * Rapid Prototyping to verify the design at a more cost effective method then machined prototypes 
* Mold design for the Injection Molding industry
* Unique profile designs for clamping devices and fixtures in the manufacturing industry
*Plus many more applications available so don’t hesitate to contact me because if you have the idea i have the knowledge and experience to produce that idea     CAD/CAM CNC Programming
   * Programming for Milling, Turning and Multi axis complex machining using Mastercam and many more well known CADCAM software packages *Optimizing Speeds and Feeds, Program, Tooling and Insert grades *Programming for complex Injection molding jigs *Programming for machining jigs, fixtures, clamp and work holding devices * many more applications available so don’t hesitate to contact me because if you have the idea i have the knowledge and experience to produce that idea   Here at A Wright Design we love a challenge so whatever your project please don't hesitate to contact us and we will be happy to help.

I have designed various machinery including road tankers, generating sets, pumps, compressors, hydraulic mechanical handling equipment, lifting gear and even a battery powered mobile hoist for Torness Nuclear power station. I have received industrial training in the UK from National Grid, the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA) and the National Fluid Power Centre (NFPC). I am an expert with Inventor, and in recent years have also become competent with Fusion 360 and Solidworks. CAD software is so good nowadays, that it is quite easy to model something. Where I have proven to be outstanding is with my application of mechanical design analysis and enough experience to know how to apply theoretical methods to reality and what works. Where necessary I can present comprehensive design substantiation e.g. to meet design standards such as BS / ISO or machinery directive and obtain CE / UKCA marking. I am expert with MathCAD and Excel for producing and presenting calculations that have held up to scrutiny. Where appropriate I will produce FEA with Inventor and ANSYS for stress analysis of more complex geometry and loading situations. During my Postgraduate Diploma in Engineering (later incorporated to MSc), I studied the numerical methods involved in FEA, and this combined with experience in aftermarket looking at part failure with Howden Process Compressors, now informs how I use these tools and allows me to use FEA effectively and realistically. I have solid understanding of key manufacturing processes including machining, fabrication, welding, and fitting, having always worked closely with the shop floor, soaking up knowledge and enjoying the camaraderie. I am interested in innovative technology and in recent years I have produced successful designs for mechanical components made by 3d printing of plastic. I have extensive knowledge of industrial components and suppliers and have often saved the time and expense of design and manufacture by knowing of an appropriate off-the-shelf part. In summary, with many years of industrial mechanical design experience, and being a generally trustworthy and conscientious person, taking pride in what I do, I represent exceptional value for money and a choice that you will not regret
