Coater/Roll Press Machine Vision Engineer Vision System experience with various machine vision equipment Bar-type line scan cameras Area cameras Confocal sensors Spectrometers Prevent quality issue in advance and maximize output (yield, OEE) through the management of machine vision equipment maintenance, improvement of machine vision equipment performance, and the introduction of new machine vision equipment. Improving/managing machine vision camera accuracy and detection power. Optimize rule-based algorithms by modifying if-then conditions or logic statements for machine vision cameras to identify defects accurately and ensure data was transferred to the QA network, SPC, and PLC. Optimize surface and dimension defect threshold parameters for multiple machine vision systems for mass production support. Verified defect size and location and shared this information to the production team so they could scrap NG material accurately. Conducted Measurement System Analysis to evaluate the accuracy, precision, and reliability of machine vision performance. Measurement System Analysis Studies Gauge R&R (Repeatability & Reproducibility) Bias Study Linearity Study Analyze the cause of machine vision equipment failure and software failure using data and derive improvement items. Prevention of recurrence through failure analysis report creation, education/dissemination, and improvement Used Spotfire DAVINCI to create visualizations that would be automated and shared to the production team. Expansion of equipment and software for the application of new technologies for computer vision. Constantly testing new machine vision functions and verifying them before being deployed for mass production. These reports would be made to track defect trends for process control.
My role included a list of utility and facility assignments involving SOW development and project coordination with contractors, our safety department, security department, and multiple maintenance departments for the continual improvement of the Holston Army Ammunition Plant.
Using low and high energy ball milling machines to mill high entropy alloy given to us by ProEnergy. Concentrating on producing nanoparticles with an average of 80 nm diameter while maintaining a narrow distribution. Recording and analzying data using SEM, ImageJ, EDS, XRD, and Excel.
