Tactical Pen Veloix (Industrialization Phase)MECHANICAL ENGINEERINGMay 2026 - June 2026 (1 month)Paris, FranceProject Title: Tactical Pen Veloix (Industrialization Phase)Role: Lead Mechanical Design & IndustrializationStatus: Patent filed with EUIPO1. The ChallengeTransforming a bold design concept into a high-precision tactical tool, ready for mass production. The goal was to ensure durability, ergonomic functionality, and cost-optimized industrial manufacturability.2. Involvement (Responsibilities)#Design Vision & Mechanical Design: Translating the designer's aesthetic lines into a robust mechanical architecture using SolidWorks.#Precision Engineering: Study of fit tolerances (threads, mechanical assemblies), material selection (high-strength metal alloys), and structural strength calculations for tactical use.#Industrialization Phase: Optimizing parts for manufacturing processes (CNC machining or metal injection), managing production costs, and defining the manufacturing file for mass production.#Prototyping & Validation: Iterations on prototypes to validate grip, deployment mechanism, and reliability under extreme conditions.3. Your Technical Assets (Skills Demonstrated)#SolidWorks Expertise: Complex modeling, manufacturing drawing creation, assembly management with tight tolerances.#Design for Manufacturing (DFM): Ability to design to minimize waste and facilitate mass production machining.#Complete Project Management: From the conceptual phase to the preparation of final files for industrial production.4. The Result (Impact)Thanks to this in-depth study, the Veloix model has reached a level of technical maturity allowing its official filing with the EUIPO (European Union Intellectual Property Office). The product now combines a high-end aesthetic with proven industrial mechanical reliability. - gcspectacle

CAD Design & Precision Engineering – "MODULATOR" Saxophone LigatureMECHANICAL ENGINEERINGApril 2026 - June 2026 (1 month)Strasbourg, FranceProject: "Signature" Saxophone Ligature – Customization & 3D PrintingRole:Industrial Designer & Design EngineerSector:High-end Luthier / Additive Manufacturing1. The ConceptReinventing the saxophone ligature, a key component that holds the reed to the mouthpiece, moving from standardized industrial manufacturing to custom design.The objective: to create a product with a strong visual identity, perfectly adapted to the musician's mouthpiece morphology, while enhancing the reed's vibrational freedom.2. Technical ChallengesAcoustics and Vibration:The challenge was to design a structure that clamps the reed sufficiently to ensure a seal, while allowing the reed to vibrate freely for a rich and precise sound response.Morphological Optimization:Each saxophone mouthpiece has its own dimensions and curves. The ligature must be adjusted to within 0.1 mm to ensure a perfect fit.Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing):Transitioning from prototyping to series production with precision 3D printing, requiring fine control over materials (resins or technical polymers) to achieve an exemplary surface finish and durable mechanical strength.3. Your Expertise DeployedPrecision Engineering:Using CAD to create complex geometries (organic shapes, reinforcement ribs).Generative & Parametric Design:Automatic adaptation of the ligature's geometry based on specific measurements provided by the client (mouthpiece diameter, taper).Mastery of Series 3D Printing:Selection of printing parameters to optimize fiber orientation, material density, and finishing, ensuring a lightweight yet extremely rigid part.Identity Design:Extensive aesthetic work to integrate the musician's visual identity (engraved logos, custom finishes) into the mechanical structure itself. - Energie&co

INDUSTRIAL DESIGN – "PREMIUM" PYRAMIDAL BRAZIERREAL ESTATEMarch 2026 - June 2026 (3 months)Rome, ItalyProject: Design of High-End Brazier (Premium Series)Role: Lead Designer & Mechanical EngineerSector: Luxury Outdoor Furniture / Industrial Design1. Project PresentationThis project involves the creation of a range of high-end braziers, designed to combine extreme durability, minimalist aesthetics, and thermal performance. The challenge was to meet the demands of the luxury market by offering two distinct versions: a sleek (welded) version and a noble (industrial) bolted version.2. Expertise and Skills Implemented#Advanced Mechanical Design (SolidWorks):Complex 3D modeling incorporating thermal expansion constraints.Kinematic study and airflow management for optimized combustion.Design of precision mechanical parts for zero-clearance assemblies.#Materials Engineering & Durability:Selection of thick steel to ensure the object's longevity against intensive thermal cycles.Corrosion resistance analysis for long-term outdoor use.#Industrial Design & Prototyping:Sleek Version: Work on fluid lines and discreet welds for a minimalist "monolith" look.Bolted Version: Highlighting the technical aspects through precision visible hardware, transforming the fastening into a graphic design element.#Design for Manufacturing (DFM):Optimization of drawings for industrial manufacturing (laser cutting, bending, machining).3. The Technical Challenge MetThe main challenge was to reconcile aesthetics and material physics. At high temperatures, metal behaves dynamically. I had to design structures capable of absorbing these stresses without deformation or affecting the finish.Every detail, from the ventilation system to the precision of the bolted assemblies, was conceived to offer a premium, robust, and durable user experience.
