Welcome to my Portfolio!

UpWork

This is a full assembly of a new style diaper trash can for a client on UpWork. The design is meant to individually seal each diaper into its own bag to reduce smell. The client is a CEO of a consumer baby brand. (Company name redacted for privacy)

• Designed in Fusion 360
• Full Mechanical Assembly optimized for injection molding (2 plate single action molding)
• Fully collapsible case for easy transport and reduced shipping costs

UpWork

This is an 80% Lower Receiver drilling jig for personal firearms created for a client on UpWork. The jig is designed to accept 3 types of 80% Lower Receievers to finish drilling out the necessary features.

• Designed in Fusion 360
• Full assembly uses 4 unique parts to reduce manufacturing cost as well as simplicity for the end user
• All fasteners were built to be flush on each face to allow the user to lay the assembly flat on the drill press for convient use on either side

UpWork

These are two designs I made for a local client who hand a conceptual idea for a new ice scraper. The first image is the orignal idea and the second image is of a concept that would be used for a full size scraper.

• Designed in Fusion 360
• Handheld version designed with locations for fingers for ergonomic grip as well as gripping domes to allow for a slip free grip
• Small spikes were designed to break up the thicker ice and a sharp leading edge was added to clean up remaining ice
• Tapered pockets were added to trap ice from getting onto hands while scraping along with a slot on the side to clean the windshield wipers

Acushnet Company

This is a heated core accumulator I designed as a subsystem in a new piece of equipment I have been working on. The assembly is meant to keep product at temperature and release them via 2 rockers I designed shown in the bottom half of the second photo. The enclosure is surrounded by stainless steel sheet metal with 1" thick sheets of insulation between to help reduce heat loss.

• Designed in Solidworks
• Fully modular design out of 80/20 for easy removal and maintenance
• Able to dispense individual product by the rocker system I designed in combination with a series of proximity sensors
• Centerally located heaters with fans for effective heating and circulation

Acushnet Company

This is a full assembly of a urethane dispense system that I designed while at Acushnet Company. The design intent was to have a machine that can withstand a wide range of material viscosities to open up the door for future experimental golf ball cover designs. Prior to this development Acushnet has been using the same equipment created in the late 90s. Currently this is being used for a special project.

• Designed in Solidworks
• Larger gear pumps for high viscosity materials >100,000cP
• Gear Pumps mounted vertically for space savings
• Larger air cylinder stroke resulting greater table retraction for operator maintenance
• Improved heated chamber layout for reduced heat loss
• New Stainless Steel frame for easier clean up of Urethane Materials
• New and improved mixer design
• Added an interface with a shut off valve for clean removal of mixer for maintenance
• Redesigned mixer chamber to accept multiple sizes based on shot size
• Developed new seals with X-shape O-rings to reduce cost on mixer changes
• New motor with higher max torque to allow for higher viscosity materials

Acushnet Company

This is an assembly used to remove the matrix from molded golf ball cores. The intent of this design was to seperate the inside cores from the outside so they could be subjected to testing. This design is a simple welded assembly meant for testing.

• Designed in Solidworks
• 0.060" Stainless Steel formed on a Pneumatic Press Brake
• Funneled center cores to a cage in the middle and the edges to the bucket shown
• Included damping material for noise reduction as well as rubber feet for gripping the floor

Acushnet Company

This project was intended to be a new way of cutting and measuring dual core golf balls as the current method had its limitations. The first image shows an inital prototype jig that was used to cut samples for measurement. The second photo shows a second prototype jig that could be used to cut cores as well as measure them all in one.

• Designed in Solidworks
• Utilized center line and laser alignment for intial prototype setup
• Second prototype could be used to scale the testing process for high volume runs
• Lightweight materials for limited strain during handling by the operator
