Highly-motivated Mechanical Engineer with over 10 years experience in high precision automated machine design and development in a manufacturing environment. Proven track record of taking complex automated machine and robotic cells from the conceptual through installation and commissioning phases demonstrates my dedication to quality excellence and my no-compromise design philosophy ensures reliability, robustness, and while adhering to budget and timeline. My core skill set is heavily focused on machine design, including conceptual drawings and models, part/assembly/system design, analysis of loads, reaction forces, stress, strain/deflection, and fatigue life, selection of materials, design for manufacturing, creation of detail and assembly drawings with application of GD&T. I also have experience in system design and analysis using the concepts of thermodynamics, heat transfer, and fluid mechanics.I have significant experience in industrial automation, including designing machines, processes, and systems using 6-axis, SCARA, and Cartesian robots, linear and rotary motion systems, pneumatics, hydraulics, power transmission systems, motors, material conveyance systems, open and closed loop control systems, safety devices, communications, heat exchangers, boilers, blowers, compressors, generators, pumps, industrial plumbing systems, and waste water treatment plants.In addition, I am an expert at programming ABB, Mitsubishi, and Epson robots and have experience developing and deploying Cognex and Keyence industrial vision systems for vision guided robotics. I am also very hands-on, being able to operate machine shop and fabrication equipment, and build, wire, test, and install any machine I design.
