RESPONSIBILITIES

• Designing parametric 40+ component assemblies in Fusion360 CAD, to contribute to development of a portable surgical robot system

• Developing, designing, and prototyping innovative mechanisms to reduce robot size, and optimize joint motion ranges and end-effector forces

• Validating robot structures and components for structural load cases in ANSYS and Fusion360

• Preparing and reviewing technical drawings as per ASME Y14.5 standards with GD&T 

• Implementing DFMA techniques during part design to reduce part manufacturing cost and ease assembly process

• Designing 8 and 12mm surgical tools for metal injection molding process and prototyping using SLA 3D printing

• Developing and manufacturing testbeds to document end-effector grip force and actuator stall torque in MS Excel
