At Optisys, I worked as a summer intern in 2022. I was tasked with several projects.
I helped process engineering with improvements on the shop floor (shadow boards for tool organization).
I was an IRAD team member for assessing powder removal of additively manufactured aluminum antennas and a member for an IRAD project to assess Fabric8Labs electrochemical additive technology.
I worked with the Mechanical Engineering team on a process improvement for increasing the efficiency of quality testing parts prior to part finishing by designing custom screws for helicoil threads. Affordable threads were made by adhering helicoils to bolts using a bar of polypropylene for tapped holes.
I helped manage inventory for the NASA Artemis moonlander antenna.
I worked on part of a Bluhalo program for advanced RF systems by performing a trade study on which manufacturing process would work best to produce proctective cases for the antennas. Designs were for over 1,000 cases with options for thermoforming, injection foam parts (EPS), 3D printing, and injection molded plastic.
I helped in setting up new drawing templates for a transition from Solidworks to NX and integrated master files that ensured any changes would be imediately passed on to users.
Working alongside other mechanical engineers, I helped to create drawings for parts that were behind in the manufacturing timeline.
