DCS is Proud to Welcome Guilherme Amitrano, Mechanical Engineer at Electrolux Brazil to Present at the 2021 DCS Global Technology Conference

Amitrano will present a case study showing the analysis of gap and flush on a washing machine drum system 

Guilherme Amitrano will be presenting his work on a drum gap analysis from Electrolux Brazil. This presentation demonstrates the modeling process of a dimensional model and shows how the results can help illustrate how the geometry of a product can magnify small amounts of variation to cause problems. 

Guilherme Amitrano has been working at Electrolux since 2015, starting in Food Preparation analyzing stoves, overs, and cooking devices before moving to Fabric Care in 2018 where he has been instrumental in the analysis and optimization of products. As part of the team at Electrolux, Amitrano has always been working on research and development using 3D modeling, prototype validation, drawings, DFMEA, creating the bill of materials, and performing assembly analysis. 

With any analysis tool or process change, there is always going to be skepticism. Changing from what has been traditionally viewed as 'what works' to something new and unproven in the environment is difficult.

At Electrolux Brazil, Guilherme Amitrano proved out his process, analysis, and dimensional expertise over time, showing his colleagues how valuable the outputs can be for making important design and manufacturing decisions.
