Sertapak

• Packaging Designer

  • May 2005 - Nov 2007

  Designed a variety of industrial packaging from paper and plastic dividers to complex steel racks. I designed from concept through to complete production dozens, if not hundreds, of different steel racks. Designs had to account for: ergonomic, lineside constraints, access for lift assists or robotic interactions, and simplicity of manufacturing often with stock material only, all while offering optimum part protection and packaging density. My designs used a variety of material and processes, but were primarily welded steel tube, flat bar and plate, as well as laser cutting, machining, and aluminum extrusions. I had many great successes in this roles, such as: rethinking how space could be utilize to save a customer over $6 million during the life of a program, developing a fleet of WIP (work in progress) racks that interfaced with multiple fully robotic cells, and being the single designer for the number 1 and 2 customers by volume in a single year. standardizing the rack style at CAMI automotive while creating SolidWorks templates for these designs, and participating on a vehicle launch team that was able to successfully launch all packaging (several hundred components) on-time and within the original budget.
