Design of gear shifting system for an electric vehicle transmission with range extender

As a student assistant in design and testing of machine components team. Key tasks are •Design of Spindle error analyzer for high speed rotating spindle’s displacement error measurement in 3 axes. •Conducting series of experiments on single line lubrication systems for the analysis of the flow behavior (Super 3 EA-tronic) •Constructive assembly and data collection of tapered roller bearings in endurance test bench.

As a Trainee Engineer I was assisting Axle testing & Validation team and Axle Engineering team.

As Trainee Engineer(Intern) I was assisting the manufacturing engineering (new product development) by designing program oriented tools and fixtures. In addition I was also assisting the team in creating machining and assembly guideline for machining cast housing for hub reduction axles (GAW: 48 tonne), in another project I was deputed to study the 4-tone carrier assembly machine’s pre-load repeatability by conducting design of experiments and thereby increasing the line capacity .

My responsibility as an Project Assistant I was completely involved in Reducing and Standardizing double gear noise in 350cc & 500cc engines.
