Description

Position Summary: Construction and analysis of CAD assemblies and overall seat models for functionality and mountability consisting of 3D models of the design. Installation space creation and administration, 3D layout investigations, assembly and installation checks with the aim of ensuring a smooth, functional assembly of parts/components to the overall seat and installation/removal of the overall seating system into/from the flight deck.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities include the following, other duties may be assigned:

  • Development and updating of the Digital Mock Up based on parts lists and detailed designs of the design department.
  • Performing data quality checks of the 3D models of the design according to criteria (e.g. compliance with the zero point definition). Performing BOM comparisons with 3-D models, displaying the resulting delta and its effect on function as well as creating or supplementing parts lists based on specifications of the platform.
  • Execution of static and dynamic (motion simulation) collision analyses to validate the mountable, functional product with software tools Catia / Teamcenter to defined milestones in the project or as part of the Engineering change process.
  • Evaluation and categorization of collisions according to the criticality.
  • Carrying out studies on ease of installation (e.g. accessibility of screw connections with standard tools), investigation of the installation sequence of the components in production, installation simulation of the seats in the aircraft taking into account given requirements and boundary conditions (e.g. Aisle width, fuselage geometry, door width and existing other installations such as galleys and monuments), analysis of the ease of maintenance of defined components (LRUs).
