    ✅ To create your design, I will cooperate with you tightly. I am doing everything possible to provide perfect result. I have been doing this for over 17 years and I am here to help you. ✅ What Can I Do for You 1️⃣ Engineering design of your idea. As I have extensive design experience I am happy to use this for your project. I can also help you to create a prototype of your own mechanism. I have connections with workshops and I know how to do it in the best way. 2️⃣ Everything related to 3D modeling. I have an extensive experience in creating 3D models both individual parts and assembly drawings. I can perform a model adaptation for 3-dimensional printing for all types or CNC or prepare model for injection molding. 3️⃣ Numerical modeling is a tool that will give you answers to such questions: - will it work ? - Is my design strong enough and rigid? - how to make it easier and / or simpler? The most important thing is that for this there is no need to do a physical model only numerical simulation. My research and teaching practice allow me knowledgeably to prepare the model and to perform further analysis of the results. ✅ I work fast enough, but the development of mechanical or electromechanical products is not very quick process and has a lot of features, so I would like to clarify some conditions of my work. 1️⃣ Concept development. I make the concept of the mechanism (several options are possible). I want to note that the concept contains only basic details. It is intended to illustrate only an idea. It does not contain many small details. If it is necessary, I can do an animation of the mechanism work. This stage ends witch Our choosing and confirming the concept. 2️⃣ Sometimes it is necessary to perform a previous research to test operability of the basic idea. If such research is needed, we will discuss it separately. 3️⃣ I develop a precise and full model of the mechanism. I take into account a method of making parts, gaps and ways of mounting the individual parts. I opt material of the parts to be manufactured. This is a very important stage. Sometimes it happens that we have to make changes in the original concept. If this happens we will discuss this issue for approval. 4️⃣ Production of the prototype. I make a full set of drawings and other documentation required for the manufacture of the prototype. I strongly advise you that this step should be performed under my direct guidance. I have contact with a number of workshops for the manufacture of prototypes. But of course you will make the final choice. 5️⃣ The testing of the first prototype and adjustment of the original model if it required. Certainly the design of simple mechanisms doesn't require going through all the stages. ✅ Regarding the timing of the work. Unfortunately, at the beginning of work , I can not say anything for sure. Only after passing the first stage we can talk about the specific dates. ✅ Language Proficiency 🇷🇺 Russian (native speaker) 🇺🇦 Ukrainian (native speaker) 🇬🇧 English (intermediate but in the process of studying )

    5+ years of automation design experience 7+ years of 3D Cad experience 4+ years of PLC programming 4+ years of Industrial Control Enclosure Design My main skills involve designing Automation Products in industrial settings. MY degree is in Robotics engineering which is a mesh of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. I can create detailed drawings of Control enclosures including a BOM. I will price out parts and source hardware for your project. I can make sub-assembly drawings based on the complexity of the project. I can also do basic schematics. (I just don't enjoy doing the multi-page AutoCad Electrical ones.) This can be anything from cable pinouts to I/O wiring. I love to get creative with projects and come up with solutions so brainstorming is always on the table!
