- Mortimer Engineering servicesBusiness Owner - Design EngineerApril 2022 - Today (2 years and 7 months)I am an apprentice trained precision mechanical engineer. I have extensive practical designing & manufacturing (machining, welding and fabrication) experience on a range of materials, predominantly stainless steels, light alloys, plastics and ceramics for research, development pilot plant and production applications. I spent over 25 years at the University of York designing and manufacturing systems and parts for bespoke applications; vacuum through to high pressure service, cryogenic through to high temperature applications and chemical mixing through to containment of varying media including explosive, poisonous, corrosive solids/liquids/gases/plasma under varying conditions. Along with varying processing techniques which include continuous flow, batch and parallel techniques along with radiation; microwave, X-ray, UV, IR and visible light. During this time gaining a MSc 'Advanced Engineering Materials' and registering as CEng with the engineering council. I then spent 3 years with a spin-out to design and build class II medical imaging device along with peripherals with ultra low noise requirements and the last 2 1/2 years I have continued working with class IV industrial laser systems, designing for manufacture and production.
