Engineering analysis from someone who also runs the machines.
Mechanism, structural, and thermal design backed by CAD, FEA, and simulation, and checked against what a shop can actually make.
Design
Mechanisms, structures, thermal systems
- Mechanism, structural, and thermal system design
- CAD, CAM, and FEA in one workflow
- Multiphysics modeling and simulation; numerical optimization
- Electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic power systems
Analysis
Simulation and tolerance work
- Tolerance stackup analysis, so assemblies fit the first time
- Thermal and multiphysics models to size parts before cutting metal
- Numerical trade studies to optimize the high-level design before detailed work begins
- Optimization to take weight out where it does not carry load
Materials and process
Material selection and design for manufacturing
- Tell us the goal and we pick the right material for the job, then design for the processes that suit it, well beyond CNC machining: weldments, castings finished by machining, injection molding, composites, additive, and more
Proof
Example project
Robot chassis and mechanism design for competition
The engineering degree (B.S. Mechanical Engineering, Carnegie Mellon 2012) and the shop sit in the same building, so every analysis is checked against what can actually be machined and finished.
