Worked with Manufacturing Engineering Department at Boiler & Heaters Group of Thermax Ltd. for 6 months as a part of academic (Industrial in-plant) training. 1. Project Title: Designing, manufacturing & installing a fixture to hold a job for drilling operation. Team Size: 2 Members; Duration: 6 months. Special purpose structure had been designed and manufactured for HMC machine, to clamp the jobs (2Tonnes) vertically, for machining. Cost saving of new attachment achieved. The reduction in cycle time of operation is also achieved with new fixture. 2. Project Title: Fabrication & installation of ‘Operator platform & Fixture’ for radial drilling machines. Team Size: 2 Members; Duration: 6 months. A common operator platform had been designed for three radial drilling machines in series, so that long heavy pipes can be machined in single setup, without engaging cranes, which leads to reduction of change over time.
