Hello! I am an Engineering Manager and Principal Process Engineer in the Industrial Food & Beverage Manufacturing market. For nearing 20 years, I've led Design/Build projects from concept to completion, hands-on in both Project Management and Engineering roles. My start in the industry was through AutoCAD 2D and 3D design work, skills that I'd like to now offer on a freelance basis here. See more at terraconcepts.design. I'd like to support your projects where you might need an experienced CAD designer intimately familiar with Industrial, Heavy Commercial, Process, Utility, General Construction, and Manufacturing systems. The benefits of using me are rooted in my familiarity with industrial systems and your goals - I design and draw specifically to get things installed by crews, fabricated by shops, and approved by customers. Project examples include: 2D Layouts, 3D Models of parts or systems, P&I/Ds, Block Flow Diagrams, Control Loop Diagrams, Mechanical Fabrication Prints, Piping Spool / System Drawings, Site Plans, Structural Steel Drawings, General Arrangements, Skid Models, PLC / Electrical Wiring Diagrams, Renderings, Permit Submittals, TI Drawings, Bid RFQ Drawings, and Machine Shop / Weld Shop Drawings. AutoCAD, AutoCAD Plant 3D, AutoCAD Mechanical, Autodesk Process Analysis, Showcase, Fusion 360, NavisWorks, Inventor, Visio, Excel, Word. I also offer support in Technical Writing and Content Development. Through my experience in Project Management and Marketing Management, I've found content writing to be a challenge for many that I can assist with. Content Examples include: Function Narratives and Descriptions, Operating Procedures, Manuals, Product Briefs, Sell Sheets, Brochures, Flyers, Website Content, Email Newsletter Content, Calculation Summaries, Custom Word and Excel Engineering Forms / Templates / Worksheets, and Project Schedules. Please feel free to inquire with any questions!

I've been an active product design and manufacturing engineer for the last 33 years with experience spanning nearly all manufacturing disciplines. I've worked in large industry such as Proctor & Gamble Oleochemicals & Pirelli Cable as well as small to medium sized design and manufacturing businesses. I currently manage the shop floor for a 30,000 sq ft machine and fabrication shop with 20 machining centers of various types as well as high volume fabrication machinery (laser cutters, press brakes and robot welders). I have extensive experience with the following industrial processes. Setup and programming for- CNC Milling Centers (Vertical & Horizontal) CNC turning Multi-axis, multi spindle turning. Laser cutting systems Tube laser cutting systems Large plasma cutting systems CNC press brake setup and operation Welding processes such as MIG TIG Gas Yaskawa robot welding setup and programming. Extensive knowledge of finishing processes - Powder Coat Wet Paint Electro Chemical finishes- Anodize Zinc processes Chrome Nickel Conversion coatings Precious metal such as gold and silver I have extensive experience in Physical Vapor Deposition (Vacuum coating). Both in the design and construction of vacuum systems as well as the operation of systems depositing coatings. I have an extensive background in industrial computer motion control as well as industrial controls such as process controllers ,PLC's and high level motion controllers such as Parker Compumotor motion controllers, stepper and servo drives as well asn precision encoder systems such as Renishaw. I've been using computer aided design sytems since they were little more than electronic paper and have followed and grown with them as they have evolved over the decades. My design thought processes easily flow into the design systems allowing me to work quickly, accurately and cost effectively for my clients. My extensive hands on experience across multiple disciplines give me a significat advantage in product design. I know most of the manufacturing challenges for a design problem before the first design keystrokes. I know how to make the most of materials and processes for cost effective manufacturing of the products I design. I am more than just a mechanical engineering student that knows how to draw things in a CAD system. I know how to design products so they can atually be made, made well and made cost effectively. Not only can I help you with your design problems, I can help you with gettnig your product to market and into scaleable production that is cost effective. I hope to hear from you soon!
