This was a winter shut down project. I worked with EnG as an contractor at Flex n'Gate in Royal Oak. Our project was to evaluate which robots needed to be decommissioned and replaced with new Nachi robots for the Wrangler Floor Pan for Kuka Toledo. Our responsibility was to swap each robot that was needed and to get the line back and running for production after the shut down.

Robotic Applications for the Aerospace Group.• Integrated robotic automation for Boeing, in Seattle, WA.• The robotic pulse production line, known as the Fuselage Automated Upright Build (FAUB), will be the baseline manufacturing process for the 777X and prior to that, for assembling fuselages for current 777 models. It's the first time Boeing will use such technology to manufacture wide-body commercial airplanes. The pulse line uses guided KUKA robots equipped with end effectors manufactured by another KUKA company, Alema Automation, to do the riveting currently performed by workers using handheld tools. The robots will work on the forward and aft sections, installing up to 60,000 fasteners on 777 fuselages, quickly and with great precision.http://www.boeing.com/features/2014/07/bca-777-fuselage-07-14-14.page• Acquired Robot Programming 1 Certificate from KUKA COLLEGE, 95% 02-21-14
