Responsible for designing clutches that are reliable, durable, and efficient, ensuring they can handle high torque and stress in heavy-duty machinery.
Utilize CAD software (such as SolidWorks, AutoCAD, or CATIA) to create detailed 3D models of clutch components and assemblies.
Select materials capable of withstanding harsh conditions and heavy loads, such as high-strength steels or advanced composites for friction plates and other components.
Conduct load testing, wear testing, and reliability testing to validate clutch performance.
Work closely with manufacturing and assembly teams to ensure designs are cost-effective and manufacturable.
Identify and resolve issues in existing clutch designs or production processes to improve performance and efficiency.
Ensure all designs meet relevant industry standards and regulations concerning safety, performance, and environmental impact.
Understanding the principles of mechanical design, material science, and thermodynamics.
Ability to identify issues and quickly find innovative solutions.
Proficiency in 3D modeling and simulation software.
Familiarity with casting, forging, machining, and other processes relevant to clutch production.
Strong communication skills for collaborating with cross-functional teams.
