Designed and released Updates to the Bulk Fill system for large Ag

planters Using Pro Engineer

Created design that replaced seed hoses with tubing for a

cleaner more aesthetically pleasing

Design that involved rerouting hoses, creating tubing lengths,

and designing brackets to accommodate

The new seed tube and seed hose routings. Also worked on

designing swing arm for routing hoses

When the planter is folded. Worked on new hose routings and

clamps to accommodate the new swing arm design.

Designed and released complete Hydraulic System for large Ag Planters

(4 models) using Pro Engineer

Designed steel hydraulic tubes to replace hoses in key areas on

4 models of large Ag Planters which

Involved designing tubes for the main lift and fold valve,

All tubes, hoses, and fittings were converted to O ring Face

Seal configuration from 37 degree flare.

Currently working on new PL18 Row Unit project to be released in 2015.

Designed upper and lower linkages, upper and lower air spring

brackets, new air spring, air lift package,

Hydraulic Down Pressure package, Hydraulic Lift system all

components are designed to accommodate

A 16in travel range and required design of castings, weldments,

and fabricated parts. Pressure and force

Analysis was required for the design of the new air spring. Also

mentored colleagues on the use of Pro

Piping.
