PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

I have over 28 years experience supporting CNC machinery. This

machinery primarily includes, but not limited to, multi-axis machining

centers and multi-axis lathes. During this time, my machining skills have

provided the ability of optimizing diverse component parts. I have been

able to reduce lead times through processing and/or programming of these

parts. Application of modern cutting tool technology and geometric

inspection methods has enabled me to remain up front in the manufacturing

arena. This knowledge has also benefited me in providing leadership in a

team-oriented environment. In addition to my skills and knowledge, I have

been instructed in modern manufacturing philosophies from various

consulting firms. Utilization of CAD/CAM and windows software has proven

beneficial throughout my manufacturing career.

EMPLOYMENT HISTORY

EATON AEROSPACE DIVISION, N. Jun 1999 to Present

Charleston, SC

Manufacturing Engineer. I am primarily responsible for engineering

duties in the Complex Milling cell. These duties include processing,

programming, tooling, fixturing and inspection. Standardization and

elimination of special tooling was achieved using stock standard

insert tooling. Training of operators in machining/inspection

practices and tool usage was required. I performed value stream

mapping on bottleneck parts. Investigated non-conformances to

determine root causes and initiate corrective action to prevent

recurrence. I was called upon to assist in other cells throughout the

facility. All work was preformed under MIL standards.

MAYER INDUSTRIES INC., Orangeburg, Dec 1995 to May 1999

SC

CNC Programmer/Trainer. Responsibilities include part processing,

programming and fixturing using Catia CAD/CAM system. Developed and

implemented macro programming. Installation and start-up of DMG 5 axis

machining centers and Makino high speed machining centers. Specified

and implemented microchip tool communication system. Coordinated

Zoller tool management system and presetter. Supported and

troubleshoot probing systems on various CNC machines. Developed and

wrote ISO 9000 element 18 (Training) procedure for certification and

preformed various training. Inner-acted with local education systems

such as Math and Science Hub, Orangeburg-Wilkerson High School and

Orangeburg Calhoun Technical College. All work was preformed under DIN

and ISO standards.

DYNAPOWER/STRATOPOWER, N. Feb 1995 to Nov 1995

Charleston, SC

Manufacturing Engineer. Responsibilities included process and program

for CNC machine tools, cutting tool standardization and training of

operators. I specified and implemented alternatives in machining

bottlenecks, such as combining manual operations into CNC operations,

developed new fixturing concepts to realize reductions in set-up time

and repeatability in machining. Investigated non-conformances to

determine root causes and initiate corrective action to prevent

recurrence. All work was preformed under MIL-Q-9858 quality system.

FIGGIE INTERNATIONAL, Willoughby, 1989 to 1995

OH

Snorkel/Economy (Division of Figgie), St. Joseph, MO Dec 1993 to Jan

1995

CNC Programmer. I set-up and established a machining cell which

included a 5 axis CNC machining center, multi-axis CNC turning centers

with milling capabilities and several manual machines.

Responsibilities included processing, fixturing, programming, set-up,

and supervision of cell operation. Utilized Anvil 5000 CAD system,

Virtual Gibbs programming system, KANBAN queue system and electronic

job reporting.

Figgie Manufacturing Center (Division of Figgie), Charleston, SC Mar

1991 to Nov 1993

Lead Operator. Responsible for a manufacturing cell, which included

processing, programming, set-up, and cell operation. The cell
