Aerospace Mechanical Engineering Intern
Developed cost-reducing design updates for fuel senders:- Designed and modeled aerospace compliant rotor components for general aircraft fuel senders- Created engineering drawings of said updated parts in compliance with aerospace and company standards- Formed testing/qualification reports based on the analysis of AS405C, DS-106F, TSO-C55a, and other FAA compliant testing qualification documents- Communicated with multiple machine shop suppliers for a reasonable quote and to ensure project feasibility in relation to the company budget and current expenses- Developing a cost schedule for a manufacturing timeline- Developing drawing packages and process specifications to ensure reproducibilityOther projects including:- Part based custom wind tunnel production for angle of attack sensors- Mounting components for ease of manufacturing for microchips in throttle assemblies- Changed fuel senders from a 1964 Cessna 180, and calibrated the integrated JPI instrumentation system to cooperate with the newer, programmable, line of fuel senders- Solved a variety of issues on the Cessna 180 including unequal grounding and pinning issues in the JPI harness- 3D printed items used for calibration of a resin potter to ensure specific volume, time, and speed levels are as desired- Filled out multiple change orders for customers requiring new float arm or mounting assemblies- Created a frequency verification device with a 3D printed housing system utilizing alligator clips and banana plugs to a DC Power Supply, this is used by members of production to test and ensure the electromechanical magnetic elements of the fuel sender were properly operational before quality inspection
