Company SKF India Ltd

Title Manufacturing Engineer (Face & OD Department) Projects

1. Project on improving the CLA (Surface Roughness) of Deep Groove Ball Bearing Inner Ring on channel 8. Initially CLA was found very low in the range of 0.08 - 0.1 mm which resulted in wheel marks during Groove Grinding operation. It was improved by changing the wheel standards and modifying the driving plate and later the CLA was found out to be 0.15 – 0.18 mm thus reducing the wheel marks. 2. Project on manufacturing process time reduction of Taper Roller Bearing on DDS 709

& DDS 1186 Centerless Face Grinding Machines used in Volkswagen Polo model by modifying the inlet and outlet chute design.

3. Project on Cost of Non-Quality (CONQ) Scrap Reduction of DGBB used in Mahindra heavy duty engines focused on improving the quality of inner and outer rings at the initial stage of manufacturing itself to avoid quality defects during assembly. Software CATIA, AutoCAD, MS Office
