We are looking for an experienced manufacturing/process engineer to help design and optimize fixtures, tooling, and small equipment for new medical device assembly processes. The work will focus on several bonding steps, including UV adhesive bonding, where we need to improve repeatability, efficiency, operator usability, and manufacturing cost. The consultant should be able to help evaluate current processes, recommend improvements, design practical fixtures, and support implementation of cost-effective manufacturing solutions. Ideal experience includes medical device manufacturing, catheter or small-device assembly, UV adhesives, adhesive dispensing, fixture design, process optimization, benchtop equipment, semi-automation, and design for manufacturability. Deliverables may include fixture concepts, CAD models/drawings, prototype fixture recommendations, process improvement recommendations, and basic manufacturing documentation. We are looking for someone practical and hands-on who can help develop real-world manufacturing solutions, not just theoretical concepts. Experience supporting R&D-to-manufacturing transfer in a regulated environment is a strong plus.

Project: Custom USB Port Panel — Physical Part Modification I'm mailing you a small glossy black plastic automotive dash blank that already fits flush in its mounting location. I need it modified to incorporate one or two USB-C ports on its front face. What I need: One USB-C port minimum, two preferred if structurally workable Ports must sit flush or very slightly recessed — not protruding Front port will be plugged/unplugged several times weekly — needs to be solid, no wobble Rear port (if two) is semi-permanent once installed — still needs firm seating Finished piece must fit its mounting location exactly as the original does The job itself is conceptually simple but requires a careful, skilled hand — the blank is small, the tolerances matter, and the finish needs to remain clean. This isn't complex engineering, just precise craftsmanship. Regarding 3D printing: I'd like a small 3D printed housing designed to hold the USB-C ports securely within the blank — essentially a snug bracket the ports snap or press into, which then mounts cleanly to the back of the blank. This avoids epoxying directly to the port metal and gives a proper stable mounting point. Housing material should be heat-tolerant (PETG preferred). Important: Please modify the original blank rather than reprint — the highly glossy black finish is not replicable via 3D printing. What I'm mailing: The original blank Two USB-C cables — ports can be harvested directly from these Timeline: No rush — quality over speed. If unable to complete: Please return all mailed components unused.
