| Cell_Phone.asm This is a design that I did for PTC. The next release of Pro/ENGINEER will ship with a new series of user guides that will teach the fundamental usage on how to model parts and assemblies. I lead a team of technical writers at PTC and decided to focus the book around the design of this cell phone. The phone has 8 major components and would train the reader on how to create most feature types. The cell phone design was a bit of a challenge because we wanted to use only basic simple features of Pro/ENGINEER. However the overall look of the phone needed to be similar to current designs that have organic surfacing. |
| Cordless_Mouse.asm This re-design was also done for PTC. It's a single button cordless mouse that was used in production testing. A team of PTC engineers collaborated worldwide to make this re-design possible in only eight days. In order to complete the task of redesigning the mouse within 8 working days, the Project team was split into 2 groups, outer shell design/MFG (India) and internal mechanism design/MFG (U.S.). Each group was further subdivided by area of responsibility, i.e. design, assembly, detail, mold making, and NC. |
| Rappie_Pie_Machine.asm This is the design of an old juicer that my grandfather invented back in 1950. Recently I was on a cooking show where I showed how to make a family traditional food that can only be made with this juicer. As part of the show, I showed the design of this machine using Pro/E.

| Designs and Manufacturing A small sample of some of the Design and MFG work I have performed with Pro/ENGINEER. |

| Dome_Cap.prt This is an aluminum aerospace part that I designed for MIT. Fully designed and manufactured in Pro/E. The complex spherical surface with vertical projections made this parts a challenge to machine. The machining was done in several stages due to the thin walls of the design. The final machining was performed using multi axis milling. |
| Machine_tool_probe.asm This is a model of a Renishaw MP3 machine tool probe. At MIT, I implemented machine tool probe systems on a majority of machine tool mills. I devoped extensive macros on both the CAM system and the Machine tool controller to allow automatic setup and measurement critical part features. Huge gains in productivity were realized by writing programs that were able to cut, measure, and recut automatically -- all without operator intervention. |
| Gearcase.asm This gear case has over 50 components in the design. I used mechanism design and animation to test the rotation of the planetary gear system. The parts were then made into molds using Pro/MOLD design software. |
| Spider.prt Much planning and process control went into the making of this part. The model was an IGES import that was not native Pro/E. I performed edge and surface repair on the model so it would be suitable for toolpath. The material was Titanium, and the weakness of the three legs was of great concern. I studied the various tolerances that were required and devised plan using Pro/PROCESS that would bring the part from billet to finish. This involved Billet Prep, Wire EDM, Stress Relieve, Rough Milling, Stress Relieve, manual machining, and finish machining. |
| FWD_Plate.prt This Aerospace part took several months to finalize the design. Primarily because I needed to interface with many other cross-functional teams working on surrounding hardware. Exchanges in design ideas were done real-time using internet technology. This project gained me recognition and exposure throughout the organization. |
