Commercial kitchen & refrigeration equipment design

Equipment designed by someone who builds it.

I design refrigerated counters, display fridges, hoods and cooking lines for manufacturers, kitchen consultants and fabrication shops. You get production-ready files: 3D models, flat patterns, DXF for laser cutting and drawings your workshop can build from on the first try.

What I deliver

Equipment design

From a sketch, photo or spec to a full sheet-metal assembly: counters, fridges, hoods, prep and cooking stations.

Production files

Flat patterns with bend lines, DXF grouped by thickness, part lists and workshop drawings for laser cutting and press-brake bending.

Kitchen layouts

Complete kitchen and equipment layouts in 2D and 3D, with an equipment schedule for consultants and engineers.

DFM and file cleanup

Manufacturability reviews, STEP cleanup and body separation, and parametric ranges that turn one design into every size.

How a job runs

  1. Brief

    Send a sketch, photo, spec or existing file. I ask the questions a workshop would ask before quoting.

  2. Fixed price

    You get a fixed price and delivery date for the whole job, split into milestones on larger work.

  3. First part for review

    I send the first model or drawing early, so style or standard changes cost nothing.

  4. Production files

    Native SolidWorks, STEP, DXF and PDF drawings, checked for cutting, bending and welding.

About me

I started on the workshop floor in 2007 and have run my own stainless steel and refrigeration workshop, Banat Mechatronics, in Choueifat, Lebanon since 2018.

I operate the machines that make the parts: laser cutting (including the M-code and G-code), CNC press-brake bending, TIG and spot welding. So when I design a part, I already know how it will be cut, bent and welded.

Tools

  • SolidWorks
  • AutoCAD
  • Siemens NX nesting
  • Sheet metal & flat patterns
  • DXF · DWG · STEP
  • GN sizing

All images are rendered from my SolidWorks models. Some covers and walls are hidden to show the inside. Client names are withheld.

Send me your project

Tell me what you need built and send whatever you have: a sketch, photos, a PDF or a CAD file. I work in English and Arabic.
