EXPERIENCE

Quality Engineer 2013 JULY-2016 JULY

LINER’S INDIA LIMITED

I have worked with a team of quality professionals with the aim of maintaining the quality of the final product to meet the customer expectations while keeping the manufacturing process as effective and cost-efficient as possible. Maintaining accurate quality documentation. Inspection and testing of various parts of manufacturing including products, components, processes, and comparing against predefined standards. Analyzing problems reported and developing improvements to overcome them. Continuous improvement to the manufacturing process.

Manufacturing Engineer Intern 2013 MAY-2013 JULY

LINER’S INDIA LIMITED `

(Manufacture of Cylinder Liners and Sleeves)

Involved in casting, production, manufacturing, and quality testing of centrifugally cast cylinder liners made of grey iron used in diesel automotive, marine and stationary engines.

I have gone through total process of manufacturing of product. Involved in a company project for increasing of tool life in turning of cylinder liners and have successfully completed by leading group. In this project we have improved the work process and quality by increasing the tool life and efficiency of output.

Experienced with CNC, casting, Centre lathe, boring, grinding, drilling, milling, plateau honing machines and quality testing equipment’s.

ACADEMIC PROJECTS

Catapult (Advanced Product Design)

This is an engineering design project from concept to adoption requiring static and dynamic analysis, mechanical systems design and layout, and prototype development and testing. The objective of this project is to develop an integrated understanding of engineering design process by designing, analyzing, building prototype of a catapult using Product Design specifications, Quality Function Deployment and Gantt chart as a team. I am being project leader owned a Gantt chart for my project. We will examine the product design process, the product planning process, engineering project planning and implementation, and engineering product development economics. Examination of how human factors, variation and robustness, safety and environmental concerns, reliability assessment and measurement, the competitive marketplace and mechanical design considerations individually and collectively affect the product realization process will be addressed. A product realization exercise will be completed to better understand how the various design considerations are put into real practice.

Increasing Tool Life in Outer Diameter Turning of Cylinder Liners

Tool life is the major problem faced by the industry. Introduced coolant system for “insert” on Centre lathe machine by considering the factors like speed, friction, heat generation and tool wear results in increasing insert life and productivity of cylinder liners.

Catapult

The prototype of the Catapult is constructed using the PVC pipes for the better understanding of the design of the experiment. In this project, a catapult is designed with five factors was illustrated using 2k-1 half factorial design and center point to check the curvature effect. The objective of this experiment was to identify the critical factors responsible for optimizing the performance of the catapult, which is to get the maximum distance travelled by the ball from the catapult.

Enhanced Multi-Mission Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator

Using an analytical model and FEA analysis reproduced a unit cell power and compared results to literature. We confirmed that with existing element dimensions, power cannot be increased any further. Model designed in solid works and simulation is done in ANSYS. Under this configuration, a resistance ratio of 1 provides optimum power.

Thermoelectric Generator for Exhaust Heat Recovery

I have illustrated performance of Thermoelectric Generator for Exhaust Heat Recovery system in automobiles at internal combustion engine. Thermal energy is free and reduces CO2 in air that reduces global warming. It is also light in weight and less operating cost and space than conventional power generation. I found optimal design by using non-dimensional analysis theory to improve the efficiency and power output.

SKILLS & ABILITIES

Excellent communication and presentation skills as well as experience with basic PC software (MS Word, Excel-Macros, Power Point and Project).

Ability to read and understand engineering drawings, assembly drawing, schematics and other written or verbal instructions presented in English.

Maintaining good relationship, patience and strong confidence.

Capable to implement creative thoughts and proactive.

Extremely motivated to understand new job functions and learn quickly new concepts and technologies.

Ability to work in manufacturing plant and design work
