Job Description: Sewing Automation Design Engineer
Position Title: Sewing Automation Design Engineer
Department: Engineering & R&D / Machinery Development
Employment Type: Full-Time
Location: Tongi, Gazipur,
Company name: Sewtech international
We are seeking an experienced and innovative Sewing Automation Design Engineer to spearhead the mechanical design, technology development, and automation of advanced sewing equipment and automated workstations.
In this role, you will be responsible for taking custom sewing machinery concepts from initial ideation through 3D modeling, dynamic simulation, rendering, and prototyping. You will collaborate closely with electrical/controls engineers and assembly teams to convert traditional manual sewing processes into high-speed, automated production systems.
Key Responsibilities
1. Mechanical & Automation Design
Design 3D models, detailed mechanical assemblies, and sub-assemblies for custom automated sewing workstations using SolidWorks.
Develop pneumatic, hydraulic, and sensor layout schematics using Automation CAD.
Integrate standard sewing machine heads (e.g., Juki, Brother, Pfaff, Pegasus) with mechanical positioners, edge guides, auto-trimmers, stackers, and material feeders.
Design custom pneumatic clamping mechanisms, tensioners, and end-of-arm tooling (EOAT) tailored for flexible fabrics and textiles.
2. Simulation & Rendering
Produce photorealistic 3D renderings and motion animations of design concepts for client presentation, internal design reviews, and engineering approvals.
Perform structural, stress (FEA), and motion analyses on dynamic mechanical parts to ensure durability under continuous operation.
3. Prototyping & Testing
Generate detailed 2D manufacturing drawings with strict tolerances, bill of materials (BOM), and assembly instructions.
Work closely with fabrication and assembly teams during the prototyping phase to troubleshoot fitment, mechanical interference, and alignment issues.
Test automated material handling systems on various fabric types (wovens, knits, non-wovens, synthetic blends) to optimize machine performance.
4. Technical Documentation & Standards
Maintain comprehensive engineering documentation including design calculations, pneumatic layout drawings, maintenance manuals, and spare parts lists.
Ensure all machine designs comply with industry safety standards (CE/OS)
