Saarbrücken, Saarland, Germany

⯁ Scientific Researcher at the Technical Innovations Department.⯁ Assigned to hydrogen production and mobility-related research activities and projects.⯁ Developed simulations of hydrogen refuelling events and thermodynamic behaviour in high-pressure vehicle containers using MatLab and Simulink.⯁ Speaker at REGWA Symposium 2021 (HOST)⯁ Speaker at Tomorrow in Motion 2022 (Metz).

Saarbrücken, Saarland, Germany

⯁ Developed a scientific follow-up system for the implementation of a Green-hydrogen-production plant at Robert Bosch GmbH Homburg. Plant simulation (discrete refuelling events, energy consumption and production forecast) through MatLab Simulink and SCADA interface using SIEMENS TIA Portal.

Saarbrücken, Saarland, Germany

⯁ Developed and commissioned a SCADA system with data acquisition to local server database (SQL) and PLC program (slave S7-1200, master S7-1500 and Anybus gateway) allowing for logging and data exchange between a PV plant, a Hydrogen refuelling station and an internal terminal connected to the server

The following changes/improvements can be highlighted:⟐ Expanded the production workshop to include additional 5 CNC-Mills, 3 CNC-Lathes, 1 waterjet cutter and several others.⟐ Consolidated steady production workflow of several tenths packaging-machinery-types per year.⟐ Expanded the working staff from 12 to +40 people.⟐ Replaced single-shift working scheme to multiple-shift rotations and individual-project-staff assignments.⟐ Expanded the physical working floor for production and assembly areas with minor disruptions of the workflow. ⯁ Created custom PLC & HMI programming (for internal and external solutions based on specific project requirements). Initially developed by me and eventually delegated to, supervised and executed by the electricians' department.⯁ Created custom electrical, pneumatic and mechanical designs. Some highlighted project participations: ⟐ Created electrical drawings and mechanical design of an explosion-proof (ATEX) overflow filler to expand the offered capacity of the company.⟐ Designed various electrical systems (concept, proposal, components procurement, PLC & HMI programming, commissioning and testing) for special-purpose rotary and linear fillers as well as for custom-made standard and explosion-proof cappers, fillers and other packaging machinery.⟐ Supervised the refurbishing and overhauling of the control panel of a horizontal saw from AMADA using an OMRON PLC and HMI for internal purposes.⯁ Coordinated the production planning, tooling selection (for metalworking and workholding) and logistic (material procurement and production batches) ⯁ Performed as legal representative of the company in Colombia reporting directly to the owner of the company Show less
