Mech dsktp 4.0 Solid Modeling, Autocad 2000,

Gravograph engraving

Schneider Electric a division of Square D corporation, Knightdale and New Hope / Raleigh NC locations. (Designer/Drafter) Design and sheet metal development drawings intended to be manufactured using a CNC tabletop punch press for mass production of PDPs (Power Distribution Panels) and other electrical enclosures in the “Square D” product line up.

As one of only two mechanical designers in our division, I worked directly with the electrical engineers in deciding on interior component placement of 480v power supply cabinets containing large banks of DC capacitors for automated spot welders used by GM and Chrysler.

I used publishing software as well as CAD solid modeling to create assembly and instructional manuals for the first series of Modicon dedicated programmable controllers developed by Schneider Electric.

I developed CAD drawings to include groups of labels used in Power Distribution Panels that could be released for production under one part number. These CAD generated drawings also interacted directly with the in house engraving machine. This allowed the operators to bypass the cumbersome Gravograph software. Labels were inventoried as one part in an entire sheet only to be broke apart at the time of assembly. This greatly reduced the time it took to revise labeling.
