• Completed setup of DPS assembly station by working with planning, production and procurement team to find commencement date, updated BOM on ERP, created engineering drawing packages, acquired tooling/fixtures, and set up assembly station on shop floor • Setup and maintained Bill of Material (BOM) for 100+ parts/assemblies on ERP system and prepared technical documentation packages for manufacturing and assembly readiness for 3 value streams (OEM/MV/DPS) • Collaborated with quality team to produce and maintain PFMEA documentation for DPS assembly station to mitigate process risks, develop corrective actions and ensure sustainable process for continuous high-quality product • Resolved 100+ shop floor challenges by utilizing engineering methods such as root cause analysis, 5 Why’s, data valuation and testing for DPS and MV assembly stations • Used Six Sigma, spaghetti diagrams and other lean manufacturing principles to continuously improve MV and DPS assembly station for smooth flow of assembly resulting in cycle count efficiency and reduction of material waste • Supported and implemented 100+ relevant Engineering Change Notices (ECNs) for MV and DPS value streams including cut-in information, BOM updates, documentation update and co-ordination between planning and production team • Leveraged parametric modeling, library feature to design and used stress analysis to test for failure for 10+ tables/carts in SolidWorks for DPS and MV assembly station • Designed 20+ fixtures for 3-axis CNC milling machine to fabricate various extrusion profiles using SolidWorks for consistent productibility of parts • Used Smartsheet and Microsoft Project to continuously update current status, roadblocks and mitigation plan of various projects in detail to higher management team • Used SolidWorks to design and fabricate more than 5 types of supports for Plexiglass Assembly for office installations to assist in customer’s COVID mitigation plan
Communicated and collaborated with managers, supervisors, charge hands and operators to understand and acquire knowledge of individual processes Analyzed value added, non-value added timings in order to suggest improvements on processes after performing time studies on individual processes. Analyzed and compared standard timings to planned timings and to actual timings to discover trends in processes. Applied lean manufacturing, Kanban, and waste management knowledge in order to suggest improvements on process to ultimately reduce waste, increase efficiency, and reduce cost
Circulation Pad Printing Project: Suggested technical improvements by revising flow process, analyzing technical drawings and specifications of printing machine to improve the quality of products Implemented, conducted, monitored, photographed and wrote technical reports on various tests procedures such as printing process, ink mixture, and flame unit test to ensure high standard quality products for customers. Electroplating Lab Line Project: Aided in the set-up process of small scale electroplating, with the engineer in-charge, to commence electroplating tests in order to find solutions to problems pertaining large scale electroplating production Analyzed the electroplated products using the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and the optical microscope to investigate plating thickness and any problems that occurred during the electroplating process
