I am a mechanical engineer and have worked in some sort of design or manufacturing setting for almost 10 years. I specialize in helping companies do three things: 1. Making your product more cost-efficient to produce 2. Refining your product so that it is easy for the customer to use 3. Accelerating your development process. I know speed is key when getting any new project started so I get you what you need ASAP. Some of my accomplishments so far -Helped a company that raised 500k in crowdfunding to develop the product they are now selling, reducing their manufacturing cost by over 20% -Helped a company raise their first round of funding by designing and prototyping their first product -Worked with product development firms with large customers to work out kinks in their designs and fabricate their prototypes -Worked with another crowdfunding campaign to make develop their beta-testing product. -Designed tooling for robotic arms to automate manufacturing processes resulting in massive reduction in labor cost I am proficient in the following disciplines -SolidWorks 2018 -Inventor 2018 -FEA (Finite Element Analysis - finding the weak points in a structural design) -Rapid prototyping (3D Printing, CNC Machining, etc.) -Design for manufacturing I work with a small 3D Printing company here in Chicago that can produce very high quality 3D prints with an excellent turnaround time. I also have a complete workshop with saws/mills/drills/CNC where I can build pieces or prototypes for virtually any project. I love working with startups to get their product moving. I like the fast pace environment and love seeing something we work on go to market.

I am a new small business owner. I recently designed, prototyped, tested, the tooling that made the company exist. I also wrote our patent pending paperwork (with a lawyers advice). This is very unique tooling, I had no help. Every step of the process, I am now having discussions with a global distributor. I did this is 10 months. I can help you do the same.

Hi, my name is Benjamin Ellis. I am a mechanical engineer living and working in the Chicago area. I received my BSME from Tennessee Technological University in 2012. My past work experience encompasses multiple responsibilities in high-volume manufacturing in the automotive sector, including tool design, process design, quality inspection methods, CMM and vision inspection system programming, robotics programming, PLC programming, process automation, machine design, metallurgy, CNC machining, and both 2D and 3D CAD, among others. Additional work experience includes roles in manufacturing process design and control, quality control, and product improvement at a steel fabrication facility. The additional skills gained at this workplace include the use of inventory and production tracking software, personnel management, and both raw material and equipment/machinery resource management. This combined work experience has given me the needed skills and knowledge to take products from concept to reality. I have had the privilege of working with outstanding mentors in my field that have trained me to look ahead in the product development cycle to identify potential problems and challenges and to plan accordingly. A deep understanding of and enthusiasm for the various manufacturing processes available has influenced my product design work with a constant eye toward manufacturability and cost. Furthermore, when it comes to engineering, I highly endorse the notion that the simplest process or design is the surest path to success.
