Celalettin T.

Product Design Engineer, CAD, DFM, Injection Mold, Reverse Engineering

I design products to be manufactured — not just 3D models to be displayed. I develop manufacturing-ready CAD and DFM-focused product solutions for industrial and consumer products, with particular experience in injection molding, CNC machining, sheet metal, prototyping, and reverse engineering. My background combines engineering, product development, CAD design, manufacturing, and tooling. I’ve worked on real production environments where a design has to go beyond geometry and survive prototyping, tooling, assembly, cost constraints, and real-world use. 📌 What I can help you with: • Manufacturing-ready 3D CAD modeling • Design for Manufacturing (DFM) • Injection molding-ready plastic part design • Reverse engineering and scan-based CAD • CNC and machined part design • Sheet metal and laser-cut component design • Brackets, fixtures, housings, enclosures, and assemblies • Existing CAD redesign and manufacturability improvements • Prototype-to-production CAD development • 2D manufacturing drawings 📌 Injection Molding & DFM I have hands-on experience with plastic injection molds and mold-ready part design, including automotive and food-related products. My experience includes: • Draft and wall-thickness optimization • Parting line and shut-off considerations • Core/cavity design logic • Ribs, bosses, inserts, and assembly features • Shrinkage and material considerations • Gate and runner concept considerations • Mold-maker and CNC-shop coordination • DFA and production-oriented design I focus on designs that are practical to manufacture, assemble, inspect, and maintain — not designs that only look correct in CAD. 📌 Reverse Engineering: I can work from 3D scan data, physical parts, STL/mesh files, existing CAD, drawings, photographs, or measurements to develop clean, editable CAD suitable for further engineering or manufacturing. My primary CAD environment is Siemens NX, supported by Geomagic Design X and AutoCAD. I can provide STEP, Parasolid, STL, DXF/DWG, and other commonly required formats. If you already have a CAD model that needs to be cleaned up, redesigned, made manufacturable, or adapted for production, I can work from the existing data rather than rebuilding everything from scratch. If your project needs more than a CAD model — if it needs a design that can actually be manufactured — that is where I can add the most value.
