We are developing a ruggedised embedded computing platform for harsh environment deployment and need a skilled SolidWorks designer with product rendering capability to design two enclosures and produce exhibition-quality visuals and proto for an international trade show in September 2026. Two enclosure assemblies, fully specified in our Mechanical Design Specification (provided on engagement), plus exhibition-quality renders of both. Assembly 1 — Rack Cassette Unit (COTS enclosure, custom panels and internals) Based on a standard 3U 19-inch rack cassette (nVent SCHROFF EuropacPRO — 3D model available free from nVent). The chassis is used as-is. Custom parts required: - Front panel (3mm aluminium) — SIM card slot, 4× LED light pipes, USB-A, USB-C, branding - Rear panel (3mm aluminium) — 19+ M12 circular connectors, SMA/TNC RF antenna ports - Internal PCB guide rail / support frame — board retention for shock and vibration - Custom heatspreader plate — thermal contact between PCB components and chassis Assembly 2 — Operator Display Unit (billet aluminium, fully custom) A fully custom machined aluminium enclosure for a 12.1-inch touchscreen display. No COTS chassis — designed from scratch for CNC prototype - Front bezel with display aperture, hardware button cutouts (function keys, emergency button, navigation keys), IP54 gasket seal, speakers, mic etc - Rear housing with VESA 75×75 pattern and panel flush-mount clamp option - Rear connector panel (M12 connectors, USB, HDMI, same PCB as above) *Product renders and exhibition graphics* - Photorealistic renders of both assemblies (front, rear, rack-installed) in SolidWorks Visualize, KeyShot, or equivalent - Installation scene showing both units deployed in context — clean technical illustration style for A1 exhibition print and investor decks - Print-ready files at 300 DPI (PDF + PNG) - Colour: Brand blue accents Deliverables: DXF + PDF drawings for all custom parts, STEP files, exploded assembly drawings, fastener schedule, thermal analysis, print-ready render files. Deadline: Early-July 2026 (prototype build starts mid-end of July) What we provide - Full mechanical specification with all dimensional constraints - nVent SCHROFF EuropacPRO 3D model (available free from nVent) - PCB dimensions and connector position data - Logo and brand colour files - Fast, direct communication with the engineering lead What we're looking for - Strong SolidWorks portfolio covering both COTS chassis customisation and billet/CNC enclosure design - Experience with ruggedised electronics enclosures preferred (any sector — defence, mining, telecoms, industrial) - KeyShot, SolidWorks Visualize, or equivalent — portfolio must show product renders and installation visuals, not just CAD screenshots - Available to start immediately and deliver drawings by early July 2026 - Do not apply if you cannot deliver both the mechanical design and the renders To apply Please include: 1. Portfolio showing both enclosure design and product renders 2. Fixed price for the full engagement 3. Your available start date and confirmation you can meet the early-July drawings deadline 4. Any questions on the spec Potential for ongoing work through production
