Master of Engineering: Mechanical Engineering May 2018 – September 2019
University of Windsor, Windsor, ON
Bachelor of Engineering: Mechanical Engineering August 2013 – June 2017
Gujarat Technological University, India
ACADEMIC PROJECTS
Root cause analysis using Lean Manufacturing & Six Sigma June 2019 – August 2019
Saturn Tool & Die, Windsor, ON
The objective was to improve the process and reduce the rejection rate by finding out the root causes of the problem
Performed root cause analysis on rework/rejection on parts that were machined using Die
Used Fishbone diagram, performed 5-why analysis to determine the possible reasons behind the failure
Used value stream mapping (VSM) and Single minute exchange of die(SMED) to reduce the change over time
Worked in group of eight people to cost out the solution by using FMEA and various Lean Six Sigma tool
Design and simulation of four-cylinder radial engine January 2018 – April 2018
Used various commands to design different parts like base, piston, crank shaft, crank case, bearing support and connecting rod etc. and assembled all these parts to complete the structure
Stress analysis conducted on parts by giving some external load to measure the strength of the part
Assimilated both practical as well as the theoretical aspects of modeling, assembling and drafting
CERTIFICATIONS
AutoCAD design and drafting
