NOTABLE PROJECTS

QUALITY PROCESS IMPROVEMENT Mar2014 - Sep2014

The strategy was to identify the deviation contributing to the quality deviations using KAIZEN approach and eliminate it.

Data Analysis on process parameters were carried out and the possible impacts were identified.

Generated quality report on Cold Crushing Strength (CCS) affecting parameters and identified the root causes.

The results increased the cold crushing strength on an average of 248 kg to 267 kg irrespective of other parameters.

The oil and the power consumption were reduced significantly by 14.5% MANUFACTURING FACILITY LAYOUT ANALYSIS AND DESIGN Aug2015 - Dec2015 Designed, developed and implemented a new manufacturing facility plan using Systematic Layout Planning (SLP) techniques. As a project lead streamlined the project in all stages and evaluated the designed layouts.
