Vrushal Maniyar

• Tested and defined mechanical response of material DP600 for automobile industries • Created layouts and designed test equipment to simulate conditions for material testing • Determined and analysed material properties, carried out fatigue analysis, stress-life (S-N) and strain-life (e-N) analysis, plotted S-N and e-N curves and studied crack propagation. • Designed the layout of an experiment, generated CAD assemblies and drawings, analysed geometric tolerances for fixtures designed and interpreted the test results. • Research led to the selection of best prototype material for use in various heavy machines, automotive and aircraft manufacturing applications of the company. • Programmed Excel macros to register suppliers, materials and vendors into ARAI Management system database

• Carried out various Process validations, Engineering Change Notice, Equipment Specifications, and Process Control Charts in various lines over the production floor ▪ Scheduled PM’s for fixtures and machines to improve machine reliability and reduce downtime ▪ Forecasted production volumes & planned in-plant inventory, tools, and spares as part of disaster response ▪ Supported production with all error-proofing (poke-yoke) activities & performed process FMEA on new technologies ▪ Designed lean process plans for a new product line of fan driven clutches by ensuring DFM techniques • Partnered with the supply chain to consolidate suppliers, negotiate lower pricing, and eliminate second tier vendors which resulted in cost savings of $20K
