À propos de moi
I’m a former mold engineer turned mechanical designer with 5+ years of experience turning conceptual models into manufacturable products. My core expertise lies in reverse engineering and 3D scan data processing. I manually reconstruct surfaces from client-provided STL files and convert them into editable STEP (STP) files — enabling easy design modifications and downstream mold development. I also refine existing CAD models by adding or modifying structural features as needed.... Plus d’infos

Freelance Mechanical Designer

Self Level • Freelance

Mar 2020 - Present • 6 yrs 7 mos

Core Services: • Reverse Engineering: Converted 3D scan data (STL/OBJ) into high-precision, editable STEP/IGES models using UG/NX. • Mold Feasibility Review: Leveraged my mold-making background to analyze part designs for draft angles, wall thickness, and undercuts, preventing costly tooling errors. • Structural Optimization: Modified existing CAD models to improve strength, reduce material usage, and ensure manufacturability. Tools Used: Siemens NX (UG), Geomagic Design X, SolidWorks. Client Focus: Startups and small businesses needing rapid prototyping and DFM support.
