About
I help equipment manufacturers and engineering teams develop industrial machinery through 3D CAD modeling, detailed manufacturing drawings and mechanical simulation.
I am a mechanical engineer with 6+ years of experience in mechanical design and industrial equipment development. I currently lead mechanical design for mining and ceramics machinery lines at NATREB, combining engineering analysis with practical manufacturing and maintenance experience.
My experience includes mixers, storage silos, dosing and batching plants, belt and screw conveyors, air classifier mills, and drying and grinding equipment. I have also designed machinery for concrete products.
I can support your project with:
• 3D modeling of mechanical components and assemblies.
• 2D manufacturing drawings, machining tolerances and bills of materials.
• Industrial machine design and improvements to existing equipment.
• Structural finite element analysis (FEA) to support design decisions.
• Discrete element simulation (DEM) for bulk material applications.
• Hydraulic and pneumatic system design.
• Technical documentation, operation manuals and maintenance instructions.
CAD software: SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, Solid Edge and ZW3D.
Simulation software: Ansys, Rocky DEM and Inventor Simulation.
Additional experience: CNC programming, CAM, production planning and supplier costing.
My approach connects design with manufacturing, assembly and maintenance requirements. I focus on clear technical documentation and practical solutions that engineering and production teams can use.
Based in Brazil, I am fluent in English and interested in remote projects and ongoing collaboration with international clients. I am also willing to travel occasionally.
Send me your project requirements, drawings or existing models so we can discuss the scope, deliverables and next steps.
