www,celalettintoprak,com I design real products that get manufactured - not just 3D models. Manufacturing-ready CAD, prototyping, and Design for Manufacturing (DFM)-driven product development for industrial and consumer products. I’m an Engineer and Industrial Product Designer focused on manufacturing-driven product development. My background spans automotive, industrial, and consumer products, where I’ve worked as a Product Developer, Designer, and Technical Lead in production-oriented environments. I don’t approach projects as isolated design tasks. I approach them as systems that must survive prototyping, manufacturing, assembly, cost pressure, and real-world use. 📐 What You Can Expect Working With Me: - Clear, structured CAD suitable for iteration and production - Design decisions informed by manufacturing reality - Practical communication with engineers, suppliers, and manufacturers - Honest feasibility feedback (go / no-go when needed) - Designs meant to be tested, not just rendered 📐 Core Capabilities: - 3D CAD modeling (Siemens NX) - 2D technical drawings (AutoCAD Professional) - CNC, laser cutting, and sheet metal preparation - Injection molding–ready part design - Fixture, bracket, and assembly design - BOM creation and production planning support - Reverse engineering and scan-based modeling 📐 Injection Mold & Manufacturing Experience I have hands-on experience designing plastic injection molds and mold-ready parts, including projects for automotive and food-related products. ⚙️ I’m familiar with: - Injection molding–ready design, Core / cavity logic - Draft angles & wall thickness optimization - Parting lines and shut-off surfaces - Shrinkage and material behavior - Gate concepts (hot runner, valve gate) - Collaboration with mold makers and CNC shops - Design for Assembly (DFA), production validation - Engineering-driven product development - Long-term product roadmap support My focus is always on tool longevity, cycle time, surface quality, and cost efficiency. 📏 Typical Projects I Work On: - Automotive accessories and aftermarket products - Mechanically complex plastic or metal parts - Prototyping-heavy product development - Production validation before tooling - Redesigns for cost reduction or manufacturability - CAD clean-up and production conversion 📌 Primary CAD Tool: Siemens NX, AutoCAD and Geomagic Design X I work primarily in Siemens NX, which is widely used in high-end automotive and industrial manufacturing. I can deliver clean, fully editable STEP / STL / Parasolid files, and I regularly convert and work with SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Rhino, SketchUp, and scan-based data. If you use SolidWorks or another CAD system, this is not a limitation — deliverables are always production-ready and compatible. 📌 If you need more than a modeler—someone who understands how products are actually built and scaled—I can support your project from concept to production readiness.

With over a decade of experience, I specialize in turning ideas into production-ready engineering solutions — from initial sketches to fully manufacturable 3D models. My core expertise includes product design, solid and surface modeling, reverse engineering from 3D scan data, and developing engineering designs based on 2D sketches and conceptual inputs. I guide the entire product development process — from early ideation to detailed mechanical design — always tailored to the client’s vision and the specific manufacturing method. I’ve delivered high-quality results across automotive, aerospace, and consumer product industries. Whether it’s creating striking concept designs, performing kinematic simulations, or engineering functional parts with manufacturing precision, I bring both creativity and technical rigor to every project. Let’s collaborate to bring your product vision to life — with design that’s smart, efficient, and ready for the real world.

Mechanical Engineer | Fusion 360 Expert | Product Design & Manufacturing-Ready CAD I am a **Mechanical Engineer specializing in Autodesk Fusion 360**, focused on turning ideas, sketches, existing parts, and technical requirements into **accurate, functional, and manufacturing-ready CAD designs**. My goal is not simply to create a 3D model that looks good on screen. I design with **real-world functionality, manufacturability, assembly, tolerances, materials, production methods, and future design changes** in mind. Whether you need a single mechanical component, a complete assembly, a prototype-ready product, production drawings, or an existing design improved for manufacturing, I can take your project from **concept to production-ready CAD**. I work extensively with the **native professional capabilities of Autodesk Fusion 360**, creating clean, editable, fully parametric designs without relying on third-party plug-ins or add-ins. This makes project files easier to transfer, modify, maintain, and continue developing after delivery. What I Can Do for You Mechanical Design & Product Development * Mechanical component and product design * Concept development and design refinement * Functional mechanism design * Design of mechanical assemblies * Parametric and feature-based CAD modeling * Design optimization * Product improvement and redesign * Prototype development * Design for Manufacturing (DFM) * Design for Assembly (DFA) 3D CAD Modeling * Precise parametric 3D models * Complex mechanical parts * Multi-component assemblies * Solid modeling * Surface and freeform modeling * Mesh and STL modification * Existing CAD model modification * 2D drawing to 3D CAD conversion * Sketch, image, or concept to 3D model * STEP / STP / STL / DXF and other manufacturing file preparation Mechanical Assemblies * Multi-part assemblies * Component relationships and joints * Motion-oriented mechanism design * Interference and fit checking * Exploded assemblies * Assembly organization * Design revisions and component replacement * Production-ready assembly documentation Manufacturing-Ready Design I design parts with the manufacturing process in mind rather than treating manufacturing as an afterthought. Projects can be prepared for: * CNC machining * 3D printing * Sheet metal fabrication * Laser cutting * Waterjet cutting * Plasma cutting * Conventional machining * Prototype manufacturing * General mechanical fabrication Sheet Metal Design * Sheet metal components * Flanges and bends * Folded enclosures and brackets * Flat patterns * Manufacturing-ready DXF files * Bend-aware design * Production drawings Engineering Drawings & Documentation * Professional 2D engineering drawings * Manufacturing drawings * Assembly drawings * Dimensioning * Geometric tolerancing where required * Section and detail views * Exploded views * Parts lists / BOM-ready documentation * Production notes * PDF and DWG/DXF drawing output Reverse Engineering & CAD Reconstruction If you already have a physical component, STL/mesh, old drawing, image, or incomplete CAD file, I can recreate it as a **clean and editable parametric Fusion 360 model**. This includes: * Existing part reconstruction * STL / mesh to editable CAD * Legacy drawing to modern 3D CAD * Measurement-based modeling * Replacement part modeling * Design modification and improvement Design for 3D Printing * FDM-friendly mechanical parts * Prototype components * Functional printed assemblies * STL preparation * Clearance and tolerance consideration * Print-oriented geometry optimization * Support-conscious design * Rapid-prototyping models CNC & CAM Preparation For suitable projects, I can support the transition from CAD into Fusion 360's integrated manufacturing workflow, including machining-oriented model preparation and CAM-ready geometry. Rendering & Product Presentation When needed, I can also create: * Professional product renders * Material and appearance setups * Exploded product presentations * Technical visualizations * Product concept images * Assembly animations and motion presentations Why Work With Me? Engineering First — Not Just CAD Modeling A CAD model should not only look correct. It should also make sense mechanically. I approach every project from a **mechanical engineering perspective**, considering: * Function * Geometry * Manufacturability * Assembly * Mechanical clearances * Design intent * Material usage * Production constraints * Maintainability * Future revisions Fully Parametric & Editable Models Whenever appropriate, models are built with a clean parametric structure so dimensions and design features can be modified efficiently instead of rebuilding the entire part. Manufacturing-Oriented Workflow I aim to identify potential production problems before they become expensive manufacturing problems. The objective is always to provide a design that is as close as
