Hi there,
This is Bogdan from Romania.
I'm a mechanical engineer, 3D designer and modeler.
I have over 15 years experience designing and prototyping different devices and systems across multiple industries.
I would like to collaborate with you on this project and possible future ones, but I really need to tell me more about.
The only problem is that I'm nt working in Sw but in Autodesk Inventor which is more powerful and versatile. If this is Ok with you, we could discuss further.
You may open a chat room here, and we'll discuss all the details.

So you don't need SW files but common CAD formats (iges, sat,stl, stp) and 3D pdf. That's fine, Inventor allows me to export with high accuracy in about 40 different other formats.
You will need to develop some parts based on bending the metal sheet (which is quite difficult because is necessary to calculate the middle chord and to take under consideration the deformation of the sheet onside/outside), to keep in mind the dilatation so to use proper tolerances, and several other parameters.
Designing a device for hplc is not an easy job, especially for those who didn't know what hplc is...
My deliverable will include 3d models of parts and assemblies in different cad formats, 3d pdf for all of the parts and assemblies, structured bom, dxf/dwg files for sheet processing and execution drawing for the other components.
Regards
Bogdan
