PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

Waters Corporation, Milford, MA

Mechanical Engineer Co-op -Research and Development Engineering Group

Jan'09- July'09

. Evaluated and assisted in improving manufacturing methods, product

design, fabrication, tooling, assembly and quality control; developed and

conducted various experiments and testing to ensure the safe operating

mode of various mechanical and electro-mechanical components, prototypes

and systems by applying engineering principals and established analytical

tools

. Responsible for testing of fixture set up, data acquisition, post

processing, results analysis, results interpretation and applied basic

statistical analysis and other quality principles and tools

. Assisted in designing and detailing machine components, creating assembly

drawings, BOMs, SOPs and operating manual

. Developed and verified a SIMULINK model of fluidic dynamics of Auto

sampler to determine the pressure developed in each component of the

system and to determine the differential pressure across the entire

system

Bharat Gears Ltd, Mumbai, India

Modification of IGE-90 Chuck operation

Aug '06-

April '07

. Identified the problem of latching of gear faced by existing chuck,

modified and created new design

. Analyzed the failure mode and its effect on the operation for different

alternatives that are available to modify the existing chuck

. Evaluated the technical feasibility of the development of new design and

verified whether the new design meets the required specification,

features and cost

. Designed and Fabricated Pneumatic and Hydraulic cylinders which are used

to modify the existing chuck operation, documented the new design for

manufacturing and took the design from concept to production ready mode
