Mechanical Design Engineer

Apply Mechanical Engineering fundamentals and theoretical knowledge of design to practical situations in order to design and implement effective solutions for Shredding/Recycling Equipment/Systems for scrap metal, aluminum, aluminum dross, and other metals, as well as for waste material such as Auto Shredder Residue, through appropriate project analysis. Solve engineering problems (focused on heavy equipment and metal recycling).

Perform design tasks on assigned projects, including designing steel replacement castings to maximize wear life; using principals of balance dynamics to design proper spinning rotors for shredding plants of all sizes; and designing air separation systems to remove metal from waste streams. Apply proximity sensor applications, metal sensor applications, and eddy current technology to design equipment for appropriate magnetic separation of a wide range of scrap materials. Perform study, preliminary design, and construction project work tasks as assign...
