*The following pictures & pieces are neither my property nor have I have designed due to NDA, but are representative of my work*

Manufacturing Engineering Intern in both commercial and military sectors

o Conducted an investigation (SPC) to determine at

what process in its production a family of parts was not

meeting dimensional tolerances. With the collected data

determined an appropriate solution.

o Then proceeded to be exposed to and help conduct

a Design of Experiments (DOE) by determining

testable factors, working with shop managers to

arrange tests, and taking measurements as test runs

were completed.

o Designed a point-of-use storage system using

shadow-boards, in cabinets similar to what is shown,

to increase operator effeciency as well as protect

company property. Systems were created for tooling

for various machine spindles as well as for

inspection equipment.

L-3 Communications

*The following pictures & pieces are neither my property nor have I have designed due to NDA, but are representative of my work*

XIPS (Xenon Ion Propulsion System)

- Summer 2014

Internship with L-3

communications ETI

division in Torrance, CA.

During this internship I

worked on various

internal subsystems

within their 25cm class

XIPS module.

- Work encompassed the use of the Creo Parametric 2.0 modeling software for the creation of new designs

and drawings as well as the ANSYS thermal environment suite for testing of such designs for the extreme

environments involved in orbital travel.

Project Coursework ME 130 – Design of Planar Machinery

-Pictured below is the final product of the Smash Chop, an automated fruit chopping device created in UC Berkeley’s

ME 130 class. In the class we were tasked to create a device which would be able to utilize planar machinery to

complete some task under its own power.

-The device was manufactured in house with nearly all components made by the project group. Pictured below is

the raw stock I formed by water jet process for the various pieces needed in the machine. The design was a

cylindrical chopper utilizing a circular grid of blades that were also made by water jet process. The project came

together quite well and was able to cut various fruits as initially designed.

-Materials utilized in this project ranged from 304 Stainless Steel for the grid of knives to 1/16” cold roll steel for

the larger structural strips to be rolled into the frame components. The device manufacturing and design was done

on Solidworks with all modeling done by myself. Manufacturing of metal materials was handled by myself. The

project taught me time management as well as the necessary skills needed to be able to produce fully functional

prototype of a product.

Project Coursework ME 122 – Processing of Materials in Manufacturing

-Pictured below is a CAD model of the Motorized Pot Rack device created in UC Berkeley’s ME122 class. In this

class, teams were tasked to come up with a marketable device, modeling some of its features, and then focus heavily

on the selecting appropriate materials selection and manufacturing process selection.

- In this project I modeled up various components and then proceeded to go through the necessary steps to

choose an appropriate material and manufacturing process for all non-OTS parts in the component. In the

pictures below is shown the CAD assembly and an example of the material’s selection diagrams used help

decide which materials would be appropriate for a part given a beforehand analysis of what forces and

moments it would be expected to receive.

3D Modeling & Drawings

CAMS Engineering Development and Design Project 2012

- 3D model created in the Autodesk Inventor

environment for the capstone engineering course.

- Device is a repair robot design to drive over

various obstacles while using its high torque arm

to attach to a downed robot then lift itself and

provide power and comms.

CAMS ROV Team, MATE Challenge

- Conceptualization, Designing, and then

manufacturing of a controllable waterproof

vehicle for completing various tasks ranging

from driver to control to object manipulation.

- Proper engineering drawings and design for

manufacturability were vital during the

project, as well as constant iteration.

Pioneers in Engineering (PiE)

- The drawing and render below both represent a single component of the

library of CAD files and engineering drawings done throughout the operation

season in PiE

- The picture on the left is of a “universal hub”, a fastener that is used in the

transfer of rotational motion from a shaft to that of another object via the screw

holes on the large face. The “universal hub” rotates via set screw friction. Various

iterations of the design have been made over a span of varying aluminum and steel

alloys until this final product. Thought was put into the manufacturability of the

piece, as it was designed to be mass produced with many on a long bar then cut out

at a later stage.

- The drawing above is the compliment to the 3D CAD above. This drawing sheet, utilizes modern drawing

techniques to convey to the machinist exactly what is to be made and how it is to be made. It is a combination

of engineering drawing and manufacturing guide. It represents the style I wish to seek with my engineering,

one that knows what it takes to also make it, and thus is easier for end users to handle.

Research/Matlab

Summer 2013 Research Assistant.

- Poster created for the end of my term as student research assistant for the

summer of 2013. During the summer I conducted experiments and performed

data analysis on a VF-0 CNC HAAS mill to determine the power efficiency of

climb vs. conventional milling of various tool paths. I was tasked to find some

means of detecting trends in the raw data received from the machine and of

sorting it into useful data. To do this the Matlab script on the left was created.

Machine Shop Experience

Pioneers in Engineering

- One of many machining jigs produced while in PiE,

this picture on the left is of a clamp jig to hold a

cabochon (hemisphere) of acrylic to be machined for

use as an LED diffuser. The Jig was made of left over

HDPE stock in the Berkeley Shop, custom made to

attach to the Kurt vise on the Bridgeport mills.

- Through the shop at Berkeley I gained the

experience and the knowledge to be able to

not only design my own devices, but to

effective consider the cycle as a whole. To be

able to consider how to actually approach

manufacturing the various products and

designs and the go ahead and make them for

myself.

- I have also refined my abilities in the use of

manual and CNC machines. This set of metal on the

left is two bars in one jig with a CNC code written and

uploaded to mill out the whole pattern. Through the

PiE production environment I have honed my skills as

a machinist, and can figure out how to practically

approach making things. This in turn helps me better

understand and catch errors in designs and concepts.
