The standards regarding functional safety and relevant laws and directives demand that people and organizations performing responsible (accountable) tasks during relevant life cycle phases of a machine must achieve and prove required competencies. As a certified FS Tech (TUV Rheinland), I am able to address machine safety issues/concerns at the design phase, in alignment with ISO 12100 and IEC 60204, to name a couple.Some safety topics consist of: Redundancy, Testing, Distance Calculations, Assigning Required Level of Risk Reduction as PL, Monitoring Moveable Guard Positions and Fault Avoidance for Relevant Life Cycle Phases.

Manage the technical department, projects and IT. Develop internal process workflows that utilize cloud-based technology to allow collaboration throughout the organization. Maintain customer relationships and provide meaningful and efficient solutions to resolve the customers problem and propel their success.

Custom machine design was my primary focus. As a significant asset to the company, I had the privilege of taking part in custom designs of automated fixturing and machinery in the automotive and cooperage industry, amongst others.

My primary focus within the company is to create and manage the majority of the 3D CAD data throughout the company. I help take design ideas, sketched on a piece of paper or napkin, from concept to completed product, meeting the customers satisfaction and expectations. My current work consists of machine design, gage design and fixture design.You can see some of my 3D work at www.accuritemachine.com .

Focus: Solid Edge (3D CAD). • Performing seminars/webinars of various functionality in Solid Edge.• Performing various training classes using Solid Edge (Part and assembly modeling, drawing creation, FEA analysis.• Providing technical assistance to Solid Edge users in need of guidance.• Working one-on-one with engineers in their design processes.

Setup, programmed and operated manual and CNC machines. Utilized my skills in Solid Edge and MasterCAM for design and machining operations from start to finish.
