WORK EXPERIENCE
Industrial Engineer: Shri Chougule Industries Pvt. Ltd., MA-INDIA (Bio-Coal manufacturer) Mar 2013- Jul 2014
Cross-training, time study, process improvement, KANBAN using light signals, reduced cycle time and achieving system capacity were the experienced outcomes
Process documentation using IDEF0 and IDEF4 for measuring scope for improvement (SADT documentation- iGrafx)
General line supervision, prepares product and process reports by collecting, analyzing, and summarizing information and trends. (Direct reporting- 25-30/ month)
Improved packaging process reducing the cycle-time by 18% and reduce spoilage of finished product improving quality control (Logistics improvement)
Inventory control, data analysis and recording (ERP MPS MRP management)
Raw material inspection check sheet (Quality maintenance)
Product testing for strength, compactness and calorific value (Quality control, FMEA)
Cycle time improvement by time study (Improved productivity)
TAKT time improvement by 45% (Improved customer satisfaction)
Value Stream Mapping of entire process to identify wastage of raw material (waste management)
Design of bin system for raw material storage to reduce infiltration, reduce change in nature of product (e.g. moisture, dryness), reduce waste and implement 5S (DFSS)
Manufacturing Engineer Intern: Padmavati Forge Pvt. Ltd., India (Automobile parts OEM supplier) Dec 2012-Feb 2013
Cycle-time measurement for study of overall performance of the plant
Study of forge die setup time and reduction using DFSS. Reduction in cycle-time by 8%
