Chao Zhang

• Researched and developed the structure of modern aircraft engines, focusing on the transmission system (AGB, IGB and TGB). • Core member involved in redesigning a transmission gearbox by Unigraphics, which improved sealing, lubrication and processing.

• Cooperated with 4 senior engineers on a redesigning of the pedestals of robot hands and created 100+ 2D drawings and 3D CAD modeling for various customers. • Significantly optimized the structure of the pedestal of the robot hands based on FEA by using ANSYS Workbench, which enhanced its stiffness up to 20% and saved 22% of materials. • Utilized CATIA to design A-Surfaces from point-cloud models for Volkswagen.

• Researched different types of tractors for various working conditions. • Hands-on experience with assembling the rear axle and generated a report of the procedures.

• Evaluated and improved the stress distribution of the coil spring of a suspension via FEA in ANSYS Workbench. • Led 3 colleagues in designing an auto part gauge model for support frame by using CATIA. • Hands-on experience with operating the stamping machine, produced 100+ stamping parts with a fraction defective of 0.
