Welcome to deanlightmetals.com

As an independent consultant I have the chance to pass on my experience to those engaged at the sharp end of engineering development.

It is important to select a material production route at the start of a design process which has been chosen to provide optimised properties combined with the lowest cost. Repair and recycling requirements have to be designed in from the beginning. The problems of joints between materials and individual elements in structures have to be examined in some detail at the concept stage. Fitness for purpose with associated tolerance requirements have to be studied.

My experience of production and assembly process as a materials engineer, coupled with my involvement over many years in a wide range of major engineering projects, has provided me with the background knowledge to offer a consultancy service to companies, organisations or individuals seeking information or assistance in light structures engineering.
