1. Describe a project that was particularly challenging. What was challenging about it? What was the solution and what results did you achieve?

   A. I designed a hat box to accommodate different sizes in Solidworks. The maximum lip dimensions were put into an Excel spreadsheet and I was given an image to trace. By accident the box also turned out to be suitable to be converted to fit a Star Vader helmet.

   B. I designed a SAM – sniffer (sensor) in 3D AutoCad. It is a detector for a dirty radiation bomb.

2. Which CAD software programs do you find the most useful for the kind of work that you do?

   I use AutoCad for 2D work, and SolidWorks, Solid Edge, Pro/E, Creo for 3D.

3. What are the pros and cons of the various CAD software programs that you use?

   I keep up to date with software by practicing

4. How do you keep yourself up-to-date with the various developments in your field of work?

   I do everything myself. I don’t feel comfortable giving work to someone else because it may not turn out to be correct. I would rather make and correct my own mistakes.

5. Which new skills have you acquired in the past year? What new skills do you plan to acquire in the future?

J. Kocoj specializes in 3d shape design for the automotive industry, including 2D drafting , CAD conversions, project management and part development. He has extensive experience in injection mold tooling design.

Prajapati has been working on CAD-based projects since 2003. He is skilled in both 2D drafting as well as 3D modelling.

He has mainly been handling commercial building projects for clients. He has worked on projects for corporate clients, registered NGOs and international organizations that focus on school construction projects. From 2015 he has been working for an international NGO involved in projects related to agriculture, forestry, health, education, disability, renewable energy, construction, environment and poverty reduction in Nepal.

His favorite software for 2D drawings is AutoCAD and for 3D visualization he prefers SketchUp, but also creates models in Revit. For 3D visualization, he makes use of SketchUp and Autodesk 3DS Max. For creating animations, he uses Lumion Architecture along with Adobe After Effects and Adobe Premiere Pro. He has drafted and put together raster to vector conversions in the past but has been focusing mainly on 2D modelling since 2015.

His favorite project was a cable car project in Nepal. The project aids tourists visiting a temple near Mount Everest. The challenge here was to design standard machinery drawings and to include every detail of the cable car supplier. This involved a great amount of coordination.

He uses Skype, Viber and WhatsApp to communicate with clients when working on a project at a location far from his client.

I. Spasic designs models for testing in wind tunnels, including the interior redesign of models for placing measurement equipment, redesign of the exterior of the model for optimization of geometry for the wind tunnel test, making the necessary technical documentation, production and assembly documentation. His work includes coordination with manufacturing engineers in the preparation of technological process and machining (CAM), and coordination of all stages and final model control.

His work includes the following:

• Working as CAD engineer, proficient in computer-aided design in Siemens NX (Formerly Unigraphics).
• Advanced knowledge of 3D design, assembly design, surfacing, drafting and documentation, and control of models geometry
• Developing models that meet needs of wind tunnel testing, most often on a compressed time schedule.
• Preparation or/and editing of solid models using NX versions 7.5 and 8.
• Conversion of models to 2D drawings, and in many cases converting 2D drawings to 3D models.
• Reverse engineering (the reverse-engineering process involves measuring an object and then reconstructing it as a 3D model).
• Creating assembly documentation, reports and assembly guides.
• Design of mold tools for plastic or composite materials.
• Design of electrodes for electric discharge machines.
• Design of large number of prototype parts, tools or assemblies used in MTI (The Military Technical Institute – Republic of Serbia).
• Design of 3rd-party (non army) customer projects.
• communication with wind tunnel engineers, manufacturing Engineers and production personnel.
