Employer: Crestron Electronics, Inc.-Rockleigh,NJ Position: Process Engineer/Manufacturing Engineer Technician, 4/2016-Present
Job Status: Full time
3
Role: ● Part of a vital manufacturing team that assembles and test audiovisual devices in a clean, climate controlled factory.
● Currently assisting in the assembly of the latest Crestron 8 Channel Universal Dimmer Module, CLX-2DIMU8.
● Responsible for testing products to make certain they meet Crestron standards and customer’s needs.
● Prepared work to be accomplished by studying assembly instructions, blueprint specifications, and parts lists; gathering parts, subassemblies, tools, and materials.
● Positioned parts and subassemblies by using templates or reading measurements.
● Assembled components by examining connections for correct fit; fastening parts and subassemblies.
● Kept equipment operational by completing preventive maintenance requirements; following manufacturer's instructions; troubleshooting malfunctions; calling for repairs.
● Reworked and/or repaired assembled equipment and products according to engineering specification changes.
● Maintained a safe and clean working environment by complying with procedures, rules, and regulations.
● Gained strong knowledge on the importance of data analysis as it pertains to the manufacturing process.
Achievements Description
Achievement(1): ● Presented the idea of constructing a shelving unit called
“Stock Pods” to properly organize materials needed for assembly.
● A material handler would arrive at least an hour before the employee shift, and properly place each material in their respective slots.
● The Pods would consists of a Utility Cabinet, Screw Cabinet, Tool/Fixture Cabinet, and Rack Dock.
● The Bill of Materials(BOM) would match that of the stocking unit so it will allow the technicians to easily find items needed for manufacturing.
● Metallic or heavy set materials would be placed at the base of the Pods, while the lighter materials would be placed above.
Achievement(2) : ● As a Process Engineer I was given the task of Assembling Crestron's CEN/CENI-GWEXER units.
● Was able to come up with a procedure/method to
assemble more than the required quantity working
4
alone.
● This resulted in management removing the partner I had who was on leave and placed him elsewhere to
work on a different unit.
● Essentially creating more revenue for Crestron.
Achievement(3) : ● Able to come up with improvements on existing fixtures for two different units, specifically the CEN/CENI-GWEXER and GLPAC-DIMFLV.
Achievement(4) : ● Consulted with the Supervisor about utilizing a share drive to better document the quantity of units built.
● This way it will eliminate the need for excess paper to be utilized.
● The manager will easily gain access to the drive through the use of his own personal computer.
● As a result things will be more efficient, time
management wise and environmentally friendly.
Results: ● The supervisor, a former Process Engineer at Corning Incorporated was very impressed with the ideas that were presented to him.
● He plans to have an in depth conversation with the engineers to see if meetings could be set up to discuss concepts such as these.
Relevant Design Projects
ME 145 Solid Modeling Project: Mechanical Design of Electric Power Drill
● Tasked with a group of four classmates to reverse engineer an electric power drill.
● Aided in making careful measurements of the shell casing and internal components of the drill.
● We then proceeded to sketch these components on paper, which included their respective dimensions.
● Then we made technical drawings of these components using software, specifically PTC Creo.
● In the end we used the assembly feature in PTC creo to assemble these components to produce a computer aided model, which resembled the actual drill.

ME 371 F.E.M. Project: E valuation of a Steel Pulley-and-Shaft Design
● The objectives were to be familiar with the Finite Element Method (FEM) solver integrated in SolidWorks, which is called Simulation, and to compare. the FEM solutions with the analytical results.
● Used SolidWorks Simulation to evaluate the design of a 1020 cold rolled steel pulley-and-shaft system.
● Determined whether there would be permanent deformation (failure) anywhere in the model.
● Second, if there was failure in the model, we needed to redesign and prevent failure.
● Third, to suggest a method to reduce the maximum stress in the model. ME 473 Senior Design Project: Smart Armor Manufacturer(S.A.M.)
● Assisted in advanced composites research, which was conducted on the CCNY campus for TARDEC in which the U.S. Army required samples to conduct tests on.
● Our product, the Smart Armor Manufacturer(S.A.M. for short), was a machine and method for manufacturing test ready sample plates with embedded PZT sensors in a so called ‘fire-and-forget” manner.
● We utilized vacuum resin infusion to manufacture these sensor embedded PZT sensors.
● We developed a method of improving the manufacturing process of Vacuum Resin Infusion by implementing an electric current to seal the vacuum bag.
● We ran a current through nichrome wire, which was used to effectively seal the vacuum bag along the edges of the mold.
● We created CAD models using SolidWorks and participated in cross-functional product development meetings.
