I run Hattendorf Design & Solutions, a small manufacturing-focused design consultancy specializing in CAD, tooling, and design-for-manufacture. My work sits at the intersection of engineering design and the shop floor—helping clients turn concepts, legacy parts, or problem designs into manufacturable, production-ready solutions. I don’t just model parts to look good on screen. I design them to survive machining, molding, casting, inspection, and assembly. What I Do Best ✔ Production-Ready CAD & Drawings Parametric CAD models and clear manufacturing drawings built for real-world tolerances and processes. (SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Creo) ✔ Tooling & Mold Design Design support for: Casting tooling and patterns Injection and permanent molds Fixtures and manufacturing aids ✔ DFM & Manufacturability Reviews Identify tolerance risks, draft issues, parting problems, and cost drivers before they hit the shop. ✔ Reverse Engineering & Reconstruction Turn scans, physical parts, or incomplete data into clean, editable CAD ready for production and inspection. ✔ Prototyping Support 3D printing and validation workflows to de-risk designs prior to tooling or release. Recent Project Experience Designed tooling and molds for aluminum and polymer components, reducing lead times and rework ✔Reconstructed legacy parts and tooling into modern parametric CAD for repeatable production Supported machine shops and foundries with designs meeting strict tolerance, inspection, and DFM requirements ✔Delivered drawings and models that integrate smoothly into CNC, QC, and inspection workflows My Background I’m a Design Engineer with 3+ years of hands-on experience supporting casting, molding, and machining environments. I’m completing my degree in Mechatronics Engineering, with emphasis on mechanical design, manufacturing processes, and quality systems. This combination lets me bridge the gap between: Engineering intent Manufacturing reality Cost, lead time, and quality constraints How I Work Clear scope and deliverables Practical, production-aware design decisions Clean files, revision control, and documentation Responsive communication and realistic timelines If you need manufacturable designs, tooling support, or a technical partner who understands how parts actually get made, I’d be glad to help.
