Design Engineering Coop
- Conducted tolerance stack and manufacturing analyses of mullion foam leaks on undercounter line, designed and implemented new mullion top plate, negotiated with supplier on improved cooling techniques in fabrication.
- Identified and fixed programming issues with industrial robot machine that sheared critical part of internally fabricated component, resulting in a 60% reduction in parts falling out of the nominal spec
- Optimized fabrication and operational processes through root cause (RCA) and regression analysis of face frame delamination, resulting in approximately a 30% reduction in instances of needed rework on designer series.
- Engineered and standardized new drill hole size and ground screw for ground screw connections on undercounter and designer series lines by analyzing screw binding and laser slag on both laser and punch robotic.
- Managed Bill of Materials and CAD transfer of approximately sixty UL and non-UL foam block parts to new supplier, resulting in projected net company savings of $300,000 over five years
- Identified, tested and enhanced two wire harnesses by adjusting length of control board harness and test connector, resulting in an elimination of 3-4 annual “critical” failures on the undercounter line
