Residential Refrigeration DFM and Thermal Analysis
Budget: $750 – $1,500 USD
We're developing a compact refrigerator module for home kitchens. We've built a working prototype that reaches 8°C, and now we're seeking a skilled mechanical engineer to help us finalize it for commercial production.
The final design should be:
1. Manufacturable at scale
2. Easy to service and maintain
3. Consistently able to reach 0–4°C
4. Reliable for 10+ years
5. Capable of efficient heat evacuation (installed in upper kitchen cabinets)
6. Designed to manage condensate properly
7. Quiet enough for home kitchen use
8. Energy efficient
9. Compact and modular for installation in standard cabinetry
10. Compliant with residential safety and regulatory standards
11. Clean, consumer-friendly in both form and function
