About DKconsulting and Pro/Engineer Services
I started to work with Pro/Engineer in 2002 and have since then spent thousands of hours with
mechanical design, modeling, and assembly.

My exposure to mechanical design started ~ 45 years ago when my father, Ernst Keppel

taught me mechanical design, creative thinking and drafting.

Over the years I developed many devices from Flow Regulation Technology to Medical Devices

for Minimally Invasive Surgery and many other industrial applications.

At first I drafted thousands of drawings on a drawing board or at home on a coffee table and

always used my skills to build many prototypes "hands on".

In 1998 I started to use CAD and became familiar with several 2D programs including AutoCad.

However, Pro/Engineer is my passion. I started working with this 3D software and now I started

my own business to provide Pro/Engineer services to the all Industries and Inventors who are

seeking a Patent.

I found several Pro/E experts who will work with me providing creative engineering input and

software expertise in areas which I still have to explore. Pro/Engineer has many different fields

of applications and it is almost impossible for an engineer to be fit in all of these disciplines

at one time: Part and Surface Modeling, Sheet Metal Design, Electromechanical Modeling, certain

Assembly, Drafting, CNC Manufacturing File Creation (Pro/Engineer Prismatics), Material and

Advanced Design based stress and temperature Analysis (Pro/Mechanica) etc.

Additionally to my computer setup with a professional  Pro/E Wildfire 2.0 license including

Pro/E Prismatics, I built a small R & D Lab which contains a milling machine, lathe, manual

sheet metal cutter and bender and a Bench for electrical / electronic development and testing

and about every accessory in between.

 

Now you have a better impression of DKconsulting and my Engineering Services.

 

I am looking forward to forming a business relationship with you or your company.
