In our fifth edition of our Series of Summer Intern posts, we reintroduce Cade Papes, a Mechanical Engineering student from WaKeeney, KS that currently lives in Wichita and is attending Wichita State University. This is Cade's second summer working at Bradbury. This year, he has been tasked with working on a Garage Door project. In this venture, he assisted other engineers with certain design elements, updated drawings, and completed a report compilation. He was also given a mock project of his own once the first project was completed. The task was to design his own rollformer and perform a stress analysis based on the specifications given to him by his supervisor, Gary Janzen. Cade will continue to work for the company part-time in the fall while he works to complete his degree in December. Gary Janzen, Mechanical Engineering Manager, said "The mechanical engineering internship is designed to give interns a feel for what is involved in a career in engineering. Cade has excelled in modeling components along with the required calculation. He has a bright future in a career of mechanical engineering."
