The Mechanical Design Engineer will use CAD packages (such as Solidworks for 3D and AutoCAD for 2D). To design the precision machined components for these electro-mechanical machines. Materials wise there is a strong emphasis on steel fabrication work (particularly with tubular, sheet and bar), as well as precision machined aluminium. There will also be some plastics involved.
Within the Design Department you will be one of a small handful of Engineers who specialise in the mechanical elements of the products. This includes the working with close tolerances (GD&T), designing for manufacture (DFM) and to cost. Particular areas of interest are with persons who have designed parts such as manipulators, bearings, drives, and supports and to be able to describe the methodology (as well as mechanics) as to why they have designed something in the way they have to ensure best fit for purpose.
