Profile

I am a research student undertaking a PhD in Mechanical Engineering with Professor Robert Kay. My research is centered in a Multi Axis Additive Manufacturing System where we are developing a process with wire embedding for interconnecting components that are already embedded into a substrate printed with FFF technology. The process aims to integrate 6 DoF that will allow a more complex pathing for embedding interconnections. My goal is to create a more robust system that will allow the createtion of functional mechatronic devices out of our Multi Axis Additive Manufacturing System without extra processes.

Research interests

Current research includes:

  • Additive manufacturing 
  • Robotics in manufacturing
  • Hybrid Additive Manufacturing Research

Qualifications

  • Mechatronic Engineering, B. Eng, Universidad Politecnica de Sinaloa, 2018
