Daniel Kollar

Daniel Kollar is a CAD Engineer at Direct Access, helping turn design concepts into physical products. His work connects digital design with practical manufacturing, supporting the production of tactile maps and accessible materials.

Using Autodesk Fusion 360, Daniel develops CAD drawings and prepares files for CNC routing, laser cutting, UV printing and 3D printing. His role spans the journey from initial design through to finished product, bringing an understanding of production requirements into the design process.

Daniel’s background in product design includes prototyping and design for additive manufacturing, which involves developing components specifically for 3D printing. He approaches design by considering the need a product must meet and how it will function in everyday use.

At Direct Access, these skills support the team’s work to make information and physical spaces easier to understand through touch.
