May 2014 – Nov 2014 · 6 mos · Nagpur, Maharashtra, India

• Completed project on Work Station Standardization (WSS) which was based on reducing number of movements for worker, shorten the movement distance, perform required movement simultaneously which results in increase in productivity, quality and operators working ergonomic conditions.
• WSS improvements were carried out on 20 workstations
• Carried out time study for every work station (20) and reduced the overall time by implementing WSS.
• Created WSS standard operating procedure sheets for every work station highlighting on operator’s ergonomics and micro motion which helped in reducing the time of production and quality of the products.
• Carried training exercises for workers of various work stations to implement WSS as per the WSS standard operating procedure sheets.
• By implementing WSS; zero injury, work reduction by 21%, decrement in overall operational processes, less fatigue to worker, zero SOP non adherence was achieved.
• Redesigned movable kits on the shop floor using AUTO CAD.
• Performed time study after implementing WSS to determine reduction in time.
• Implemented project for visual poka-yoke for valve swap detection in the cylinder head of an engine.
• Made process flow diagram, cause & effect diagram and WHY-WHY analysis for valve swap detection.
• Designed automated rack for model wise bearing shell which avoided human error in inappropriate fitment of shells.
