On
the Market: RECRUIT I
have been employed for most of my career as a “Machine Designer” creating
custom automation machines to support manufacturing operations. I have
been employed at both small and large design and build firms as well as
companies that do their own in-house projects.
Offering
a diversified background in machine design and manufacturing plus a Bachelor
of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering.
Designed power transmission system that utilized steel core timing
belts, pulleys, clutches and pneumatic cylinders. This system transfers
power to rollers used on a web handling conveyor line. Designed and programmed servo controlled
high-speed vacuum hose trimming machine. This machine stretches hose,
strips plastic, cuts wire and unloads trimmed hose “on the fly.” Worked as member of Design Team to
develop multi-station assembly line for auto supplier. Duties included
robot machine base design, detailing components of sub-assem., B.O.M.
and parts list. Designed (3) axis programmable heat staking machine to install inserts in plastic housing. This inserter reduced direct labor by 60% saving $90,000 per year while increasing quality. Designed and documented on AutoCad
the pneumatic and gas schematics for a multi-million dollar assembly machine.
Calculated flow rates, Cv values, FRL capacity etc… These components were
sized as a system to meet the cycle time required. Designed and engineered a multiple spindle drill machine that creates (36) holes in an aluminum forging within a (10) second cycle. Gained extensive knowledge of sizing machine tools for metal removal. This machine increased output by 50%. MANUFACTURING
SUPPORT: Selected
manufacturing equipment such as drill presses, milling machines, pneumatic
assembly tools and die presses. Designed
test fixtures and gauges to verify that production is meeting quality
standards. SET-UP
AND Processing:
Worked
in the tool room of a die casting shop doing mold repair and building
replacement components for aluminum casting dies. Duties included lathe
work, grinding precision cores and surface grinding.
