Portfolio / Rev. B

Mechanical Design Engineer

CAD design, DFM-driven part development, and manufacturing-ready engineering — from first concept to production floor.

I'm Volkan — a mechanical design engineer who likes designs that survive contact with the production floor. My work spans parametric CAD, DFM and rapid prototyping, with a particular fondness for aluminium: extrusions, machined parts, and the small details that make them manufacturable. If a part is easy to make, easy to assemble and hard to break, I call it done.

Capabilities

01

CAD & Parametric Modeling

Robust, fully-constrained parametric models built for change, not just for the first render.

02

DFM & Manufacturing Support

Designs reviewed against real process limits — draft, tolerances, tooling, and cost.

03

CNC & Production Engineering

Machining-aware part design, fixturing thinking, and drawings a shop can actually use.

04

3D Printing & Prototyping

Fast FDM/MJF iteration loops to validate fit, function, and feel before tooling.
