Back to original languageAbout Patrick
Mechanical Design Engineer | SolidWorks | PTC Creo | Manufacturing-Oriented CAD Design
I support companies in mechanical engineering and metal fabrication by transforming concepts into precise, production-ready CAD models and technical drawings. With a solid background in manufacturing technology and mechanical engineering, I design with a clear focus on functionality, efficiency, and real-world manufacturability.
I work with SolidWorks and PTC Creo, creating detailed 3D models, assemblies, technical drawings, and complete documentation packages. My services include concept development, design optimization, sheet metal and welded structures, tolerance definition, and bill of materials.
What sets me apart is my understanding of production processes. I don't just design parts that look good in CAD – I develop components that are efficient and cost-effective to manufacture.
Whether you need support for machine parts, metal structures, or complete mechanical systems – I deliver structured, reliable, and high-quality engineering services.
Let's create practical and efficient designs that work in real production environments.

Experience
- Praktikum Kettenwulf GmbHInternshipMECHANICAL ENGINEERINGJuly 2018 - September 2018 (2 months)Klagenfurt am Wörthersee, AustriaDuring my internship at KettenWulf, a leading manufacturer of chains and conveyor technology, I gained practical experience in metal fabrication and production organization.My responsibilities included:-Assisting with the assembly and final inspection of chains and mechanical assemblies-Participating in manufacturing processes, including quality assurance and dimensional control-Documenting production steps and maintaining work ordersThrough this internship, I gained a deep understanding of manufacturing-oriented design, production processes, and the requirements for manufacturable metal components.
- AusbildungHTBLVA FERLACHMECHANICAL ENGINEERINGSeptember 2015 - July 2020 (4 years and 10 months)Klagenfurt, AustriaI successfully completed my education at HTBLVA Ferlach, specializing in Manufacturing Technology, and during my studies, I acquired comprehensive knowledge in the fields of design, manufacturing technologies, quality management, and the application of modern CAD and CAM systems.As part of my final project (diploma thesis), my team and I developed and designed an innovative fixture for the quality assurance of drills and milling cutters. The goal was to perform precise measurements, make the analysis efficient, and implement the results in a practical manner according to industrial standards. In this process, I learned to grasp complex technical requirements, develop design solutions, and oversee the implementation from planning to the finished device.This project not only allowed me to translate my theoretical knowledge directly into practical, innovative technical solutions but also to gain valuable experience in teamwork, project management, problem-solving skills, and technical documentation.Furthermore, I deepened my skills in process optimization and the use of modern manufacturing technologies, which I can strategically apply in future projects.
