May 2026 – August 2026

  • Developed ISO 9001 compliant Standard Operating Procedures for Quality Control equipment, production line startup and change over processes, and production line equipment calibration — preventing over $46,000 in potential product loss every year.
  • Evaluated and acquired an FDM 3D printer capable of printing high-temperature resistant materials, bringing custom part fabrication in-house, cutting part costs by upwards of 95% and reducing downtime by 88% compared to outsourcing.
  • Designed and 3D printed custom dust collection nozzles that complied with strict customer requirements, used CFD to optimize airflow for improved efficiency, and tested materials for the best flexibility-to-heat resistance ratio. Implemented 5 nozzles on production lines, providing upwards of $5,500 in annual savings each via eliminating manual cleanup.
  • Evaluated product reclaim feeder operational metrics; formulated a square-root mathematical model of the data trend achieving 99.97% accuracy and engineered an automated calculation tool that streamlined workflow time from 5 hours to under 30 minutes.
