Awais Q.
Sheet Metal & Machine Design Engineer | SolidWorks, DFM, Fab Drawings
I design sheet metal products, machines and plant equipment that your fabricator can cut, bend and weld without coming back with questions. 10+ years in R&D and plant manufacturing. Registered Mechanical Engineer (PEC), MS Mechanical Engineering. I design for the press brake, the weld shop and the budget, not just the render. WHAT YOU GET ON EVERY JOB - Native SolidWorks parts and assemblies, parametric and rebuild-safe - DXF flat patterns ready for laser, CNC punch or waterjet - 2D fabrication drawings with bend and weld notes, tolerances and GD&T - BOM with materials, finishes and bought-out hardware - STEP / IGES for your shop, renders for your team WHAT I DESIGN - Machines and plant equipment: batching, pugmill and asphalt plant sub-assemblies, conveyors, food-processing lines, washing stations - Sheet metal enclosures, control panels, cabinets, kiosks and machine guards - Weldments, frames, brackets and trailer-mounted equipment - Reverse engineering from samples, photos or measurements; 2D-to-3D conversion - DFM reviews to cut material, bending and welding cost RECENT PROJECTS Portable pugmill plant, asphalt plant sub-assemblies, automatic cookies/frying plant, batching plant, industrial washing station, agricultural robot, PV panel frame separator and a 264-gallon trailer-mounted smoker, delivered as SolidWorks models, fabrication drawings and BOMs. HOW I WORK - I confirm material, thickness, K-factor and bend radius before modelling, so flat patterns match your shop - Larger projects run in milestones: concept > detailed design > drawing package - Realistic deadlines, regular updates, revisions within agreed scope - NDA available on request FULL PRODUCT SUPPORT Need more than CAD? I can also bring in electronics/control-systems support and China-based prototyping and sourcing, so your product goes from design to first units with one point of contact. For larger projects, I'm happy to start with a paid first milestone, like one sub-assembly or a DFM review, so you can check the quality before committing to the full scope. Send me your sketch, photos or existing CAD and I'll reply with scope, price and timeline.
