Development of new battery systems for diverse vehicle and industrial applications.Implementation and administration of 3DExperience Enovia PLM in product design using Solidworks. Putting in place data management practices, such as standard component libraries, templates and way of working with 3DExperience.Conceptual and final top-down product design using Solidworks. Including structural design, large assembly management with for example finalized electrical harnesses in 3D.#Solidworks #3DExperience #Enovia #PLM #Battery

I was responsible for hardware engineering for terminal automation infrastructure.

Chief engineer / product development engineer in manual and automated container handling equipment projects (straddle carriers, AGV's and automation infrastructure). Wide range of duties, conceptual 3D design using Catia V5, project management, machine control system design/implementation (CoDeSys V3 and Siemens PLC) and safety engineering (according to requirements from EU machinery directive, especially from control system safety point of view by using ISO 13849, IEC 62061 and IEC 61508 standards).#AGV #StraddleCarrier #MachineControl #SteeringControl #Automation #Navigation #Safety #3D #CAD #Hydraulics #Catia #ISO13849 #IEC62061 #IEC61508

I was working in John Deere and Waratah brand forestry harvester head development projects. Our team used topnotch 3D design methodologies with Pro/E; top-down design with fully parametrized models. The work required multidisciplinary understanding of machine design (machine control, hydraulics, weight optimized sheetmetal fabrications, 3D model based manufacturing of cast iron/steel parts).Wararah H290 is one of the products our team developed, see video at https://youtu.be/Ur9Bm6xApJA

My responsibilities were in system infrastructure and application maintenance and upgrades of Airbus A380 spoiler project CAD and PLM systems (Cadds, SAMCef, Patran, Nastran and Airbus Gilda systems running on HPUX and SGI Irix operating systems). In the implementation project of a new generation PLM systen for Patria I got user and administration experience on Catia V5 and Enovia LCA PLM environments.It was fascinating to work in aeroplane engineering project and learn how this kind of large scale project is managed. Also testing of different PLM systems and implementation of Enovia LCA was great opportunity to learn the newest technologies.

I Worked as:- Forestry harvester development engineer- Pro/E 3D CAD implementation project manager globally for 4 sites with over 100 designers. All sites were transferred from ME10 and ANVIL5000 2D CAD to Pro/E in about two years. All legacy data, roughly 200000 drawings were translated and the legacy systems were turned off. - Pro/Intralink product data managament implementation project manager- Team member or leader in many interesting and creative projects, e.g. top-down design fully applied in mechanism and structural design of booms, harvester heads and harvester/forwarder base machines- "early adopter" of 3D electrical cabling harness design using PTC's Pro/Cabling and the integrated circuit design tool Pro/Diagram for 1270D harvester in 1999 (it was possible then, but we were too early with that... the harness consists over thousand parts and really was too much for the 300MHz Pentium PC CAD workstations :) Opportunity to work at Timberjack was a very fortunate thing in my professional career. Especially the design experience we got using Pro/E from version 18 has been really valuable. Pro/E at that time really stood out in powerfulness but was different and considered difficult to learn. That forced us to truely learn the thinking process in capturing the design intent to solve a particular problem. It has helped a lot, as the thinking process in building a robust design has not changed that much.

Transmission and chassis design for off- and on-road trucks, buses and industrial vehicles, such as port tractors and lift trucks. Various design and sales projects for Sisu and other brands as Paccar/Kenworth, Foden, Scania, Ginaf, Fantuzzi. I gathered experience on using and administering Catia V4 3D-CAD system and IBM AIX and HPUX operating systems.I was very lucky to work in such professional manufacturing company with highly professional colleagues. The facilities at Sisu Axles host wide selection of CNC machines and awesome technicians.
