Hello,
I Have been working as a mechanical engineer for 3 years at an OEM shop and I graduated in 2013.
I am the sole engineer responsible for both coming up with designs as well as coming up with assemblies and drawings for the machines and fixtures we create. A pitfall I come across is making dumb mistakes when designing whole assemblies (collisions, poor fit of parts). This is especially true when we have a lot of hot jobs and I have to juggle a bunch of assemblies. My question is whether anyone as a good methodology or rubric for reviewing designs and making sure everything fits and works as intended.
TLDR: Anyone have a good methodology or rubric for reviewing designs and making sure everything fits and works as intended.
