Kevin G.
Design-Analyze-Build, full product life cycle specialist
Great products begin with a great design that includes considerations for realistic fabrication and assembly. My history of deep involvement with a variety of manufacturing methods allows me to incorporate a long-term vision of the product life cycle throughout the design process. This constant forward-thinking prevents major redesign during the manufacturing phase and ensures projects remain aligned with customer goals. I specialize in 3D mechanical design, analysis and prototyping including: - Design-for-manufacture using: 3D print, CNC machine, injection mold, die cast, sheet metal, laser cut, etc. - Electronics integration - Structural/thermal/vibration analysis - Prototype manufacturing & assembly - Mechanical drawing package creation - Production interfacing I have designed, built and tested successful (some patented) products in the following industries: - Mechanized medical devices - Medical research test equipment - PCB & housing assembly tooling - Aerospace test equipment - Aerospace showroom cabin interiors - SCUBA diving propulsion - Underwater electronics enclosures - Bicycle lights - Photography lights and straps - Mechanized sports training equipment - Small satellite structure & hardware - High-altitude passenger vessel
