B. Goossens is an independent CAD consultant. He started his career as a CAD support technician, and gained experience working on a host of architectural and engineering related projects. He has also served as a CAD cartographer, and has deep experience in the use of CAD/GIS and topographic mapping and worked on a host of engineering related projects. He provides services in CAD/GIS (geographical information system), and is an expert in piping and its use in the residential and commercial industry. He is also a CAD designer, and is an expert in the preparation of piping and instrumentation diagrams, PFD’s (process flow diagrams) and engineering related projects. As a piping designer, he has extensive experience in working on piping layouts, 3D modeling, detail piping design and piping drawing production for process piping. He has deep experience working on PDS (piping design system) 3D equipment modeling, PDS 3D piping design, PDS interference manager, PDS isometric pipe spool extraction, squad checking and marking of vendor drawings, and quarterly meetings with chief engineers using visualization technology for review of design areas. As a CAD piping designer, he has been responsible for the detail design and drawing production for process piping. He has extensive experience working on PDS 3D equipment modeling, PDS 3D pipe routing, PDS drawing generator, and PDS isometric pipe spool extraction, plant designs, plot plan developments, piping layouts, P&ID’s, PFD’s, interfacing with vendors, project review meetings, and field surveys. He also has extensive experience in providing engineering support, developing standards for best practices, project management, and construction management.

E. Galicki is an expert in the field of parametric solid modeling, mechanical design/drafting, and engineering support services. He has helped to implement a wide range of ideas, including devices for clients in the electrical, optical, medical, automotive and aeronautic sectors.
Mr. Raileanu has over twenty years’ experience in CAD-based solutions designing aluminum and steel machinery, fabrication drawings, processing and part designing.
He creates designs for HVAC systems. He has designed in the following areas:
• metal fabrication
• processing and part design
• drafting and MS Office
• 2D & 3D geometry creation and manipulation
• mechanical & sheet metal structural design
• product engineering and mechanical design
He has been working with AutoCAD since college days, however he works mainly on SolidWorks to design heat and ac frames, sheet metals and enclosures. He has worked with AutoCAD since 1989, however in 2004 he discovered SolidWorks and since then he has been designing 3D models and drawings only with SolidWorks. As a proficient user of SolidWorks, he believes SolidWorks has the best user interface and intuitive, reliable FEA (Failure Effects Analysis) features.
Since 2017, he has been working with a world-class manufacturer of dehumidifiers in Georgia. He has been designing and developing innovative products and production systems to support engineering requirements. He has been using SolidWorks extensively for all product designs, weldments and frames, work assemblies and subassemblies and creation of job fabrication binders for manufacturing team members. This includes all necessary part files, bend drawings, appropriate dimensional data, general overview layout, exploded views of critical component assemblies.
Since 2016, he has been working in another company, in development of anatomically-precise 3D and 4D surface imaging systems. He works with R&D products, responsible for creating and maintaining any CAD documentation required by sales, and developing detailed engineering drawings for system design, components, cabling, and prototyping 3D printing products.
From 2015 to 2016, he also provided CAD support for a pallet rack manufacturer in Georgia that offers a full range of services from design to installation of storage solutions for many industries and materials. He designed layouts and drawings for estimating, approval, permitting and fabrication.
One of his most challenging projects was one that required him to design and build a video electronic enclosure that had to be light and also appeal to specific customers in that field (medical devices). The challenges were to make it less heavy than the previous design, to fit all electronic components required, to have a good maintenance access and to look visually appealing.
He built a mobile dehumidifier unit with a small footprint to fit other competitors design, easy maintenance access, sturdy, structurally safe, outdoor proof and easy to maneuver. He also brought some new concepts to the design to challenge the competitors’ design, such as less energy consumption (less welding) and ability to stacking during shipping or storage.
He feels that the best thing about working as a CAD draftsman is that he gets to work from home.
He uses Skype and phone to communicate with clients. He shares his screen with clients for a variety of different purposes. He also uses Webex and GoToMeeting as he finds these tools to be very effective between people at different locations. He thinks they solve most of the issues related to projects. When required, however, he also meets clients face to face. He does not believe that issues can be solved only by face-to-face meetings, but in certain situations where a personal approach is required face-to-face meetings may be more appropriate.
