About

I am a Mechanical Design Engineer specializing in mechanical product development, 3D CAD design, engineering drawings, FEA and CFD.

I primarily use Creo Parametric for 3D part and assembly design, design modifications, and detailed manufacturing drawings. I also use ANSYS Mechanical for structural and stress analysis and ANSYS Fluent for CFD simulations.

My professional experience includes the design and development of diaphragm and piston pumps, dosing equipment, mechanical assemblies, structural frames, and industrial systems.

I can help with:
• 3D part and assembly modeling
• Mechanical design and design improvements
• Manufacturing drawings
• FEA and structural analysis
• CFD analysis
• Prototype and product development
• Design for manufacturing
• Reverse engineering and modifications

My goal is to deliver practical engineering solutions that are not only geometrically correct, but also suitable for manufacturing and real-world use.
