Hi, This project is a strong match for my background in mechanical/aerospace engineering, CAD, FEA, and engineering analysis. I can develop the 300 kg, 3 m chain-driven lift as a complete prototype-ready package, including the parametric 3D CAD model, manufacturing drawings, structural FEA, motor and gearbox and chain sizing, BOM, and basic technical documentation. My approach will focus on load paths, structural safety margins, manufacturability, guide-rail behavior, chain-drive reliability, and the anti-drop and safety system from the beginning rather than treating these as later additions. The price includes the initial design package and up to two reasonable revision rounds based on your engineering and manufacturing feedback. Prototype-stage changes beyond the agreed scope, major redesigns, or extended technical support can be handled as a separate milestone. Before starting, I would also like to confirm the installation country, applicable lift/safety standard, preferred CAD platform, available drive components, and whether formal certification is required. I can begin as soon as these points are confirmed. Best regards, Mahmoudreza
