Design and Development of Pumps. Machining process development for pump components. Casting process optimization at vendor's locality for VK pump requirement. Assembly, Testing and dispatch from R&D vertical. Solidworks - Part modelling and Assembly MAGMA - Casting simulation Minitab - Multiple verticals SolidCAM - Tool path generation AutoCAD, Microsoft tools I am also a Six Sigma Green belt certified professional. I am carrying out my Six Sigma Black belt certification currently.

I was responsible for Casting process development and simulation of Wear parts for Sandvik Crushers. Development of material library for thermo-physical properties of Hadfield steels and develop proper and definite Material properties. Study pouring, solidification and fettling properties of the material using thermo-calc, MAGMA and Minitab software. Optimized the Casting process for Sandvik India, Sandvik Sweden and Sandvik China vendors.

I was responsible to carry out Material research and analysis in the University. Project 1: To study the behavior of multiphase metals (Aluminum-Si alloy and Grey Cast Iron) when subjected to Ion polishing, electrolytic polishing and mechanical polishing. Project 2: Solidification behavior of Al-Si alloy with different solidification rate and grain properties. Report was generated for each project and published in Science Direct.

I was responsible for New Product Development of Hole Making tools, testing and training. I was also responsible for Technical support for Asia Pacific market. During my term in Kennametal, I have been part of 12 new product development projects, Solved multiple customer machining challenges, developed Value stream mapping for vendors and trained interns and apprentices on cutting tool physics and development.
