Just under a year ago, Luke Van Voorhis graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering from NC State University and began his professional career with Carrier. After purchasing a textbook to learn Creo design automation via SmartAssembly, he soon began developing his own automation tools for his team, and even worked with CADquest - the book’s author - on larger in scope SmartAssembly projects. These programs will save hundreds of hours in product development output, and the future is looking bright for many more automation opportunities.
