• During my time as a Product Development Engineering Co-Op student I assisted in the development of prototypes for the company's flagship SafetyPlastic product, known for its exceptional energy absorption capabilities.
• Created prototype part prints using CATIA, conducted CAE using IGES CAD to analyze product dimensions, and tested prototypes using Instron energy crush data to verify/set performance targets.
• Led pre-production tool trials, achieving a Process Performance Index (PPK) above 1.67 for mass production readiness.
• Performed dynamic head collision tests, analyzing G force data for safety reports, and generated Head Injury Criterion (HIC) reports for customers.
• Assisted in video marketing and the production of a new fall impact flooring system, enhancing injury prevention.
• Operated and maintained shop equipment, including thermoformer, trim press, mill, bandsaw, and Instron crash plates.
