Responsible for all layouts in the stamping and assembly departments 2.4mm sq ftSet up all static and dynamic material flow patterns along with storage locations of all WIP materialsHelped consolidate office and floor space work zones, tool and die repair areas, outer body panel inspection and repair, skilled trade work operationsPlanned side line assembly work cells and set up part presentation using lean manufacturing practicesDeveloped visual management display boards to interpret standard work instructions/sequence of operations Compliant with all UAW and MI-OSHA safety guidelines, practices, and buy-offsManaged the production/facility floor restoration projectCycle Time reduction Team

As "Un-Met" Business needs grew, the Team needed it's guidence, support, and quality control.The Team is on a pause right now, but I believe we will be Internationally known in time.

Designer of Quick Mold Change Systems (Injection Mold Machines)

Joined team to generate all building proposal layouts for future site in Shanghai, ChinaPlanned the static and dynamic material flow patterns and material storage locationsDesigned ergonomically efficient side line assembly work areasOrion Assembly Plant (Dec 1995 to Oct 1996)Updated all current manual plant drawings to AutoCAD standardDesigned ergonomically efficient side line assembly work areasHandled design changes for layouts in the virtual environment

Converted manual drawings to AutoCAD drawing filesProcessed engineering change requests from the design team* Radiator Fin MillsThis was my First Stepping Stone into the "Engineering World". I will always treasure the knowledge and the experience achieved at Livernois Engineering.
