Note to Recruitment Agencies:
Unison Ltd are not currently considering introductions by recruitment agencies. The role of mechanical design engineer will consist of working as part of an energetic and progressive design team, providing innovative solutions to our customers that incorporate a high level of industry knowledge and cutting-edge technology. The role reports directly to the Design Team Leader on a day-to-day basis but has an element of autonomy, requiring you to work on your own initiative and within a team. The role: Design and coordination of mechanical and electro-mechanical elements of complex, special-purpose machinery, integrated automation systems, and robotic cells. Evaluate and understand project requirements to plan execution of components design, select system components, and prepare design specifications. Prepare design calculations, specifications, and documentation. Generate complex part and assembly models within SolidWorks and coordinate the design with other parties. Attend design meetings/reviews and communicate your design intent. Convert 3D models into General Arrangement and Detail drawings for manufacture in accordance with recognized drawing standards. Provide input and advice to the installation team during the installation of the project on-site, including the preparation of layout drawings and handover documentation. As you progress, the role will develop to include taking ownership of a full project from the initial design concepts through to the final commissioning of the solutions we provide to our customers. Some domestic and international travel may be required. The Candidate: Minimum of 5 years industry design experience in special purpose machinery and automation systems. Mechanical engineering qualification and/or previous proven experience in a similar role. High level of experience in 3D modelling of parts, complex assemblies, and producing 2D manufacturing drawings within SolidWorks with a good working knowledge of GD&T. Sound knowledge of Design for Manufacture principles and manufacturing processes, including: Machining & Turning 3D printing Sheet metal Fabrications Ability to produce both hand calculations and computational simulations to support your designs. Good working knowledge of Pneumatic & Hydraulic systems. Previous experience in machine tools and tooling design is highly desirable. Experience with kinematics of machinery and the ability to size motors, gearboxes, mechanical drive/guide elements in rotary & linear motion systems supported by calculations. Basic understanding of Drives and Controls. Hands-on experience in machine building is desirable. Ability to work in a demanding environment, meeting strict deadlines to a high standard with attention to detail. Excellent communication skills, ability to work as part of a team in a collaborative environment, and possess a flexible, pro-active, and methodical approach to problem-solving. Hours: 39 hours Holidays: 32 days a year inclusive of public/bank holidays Job Type: Full-time Schedule: Monday to Friday Additional Information: 5+ years design experience in special purpose machinery and automation. 5+ years experience in 3D modelling of parts, complex assemblies, and producing 2D manufacturing drawings within SolidWorks. An appreciation of the French and Spanish language would be beneficial.
