PROFESSIONAL BACKGROUND
Software Engineer, Davis-Standard Ringwood, NJ
September 2012-Present
Designed controls systems and system integration on automated manufacturing lines, in the industries of web converting and extrusion
• Worked as part of a multi-disciplinary team with electrical and mechanical engineers to meet customer specification
• Performed onsite commissioning of control systems and integration of new and preexisting software, electrical hardware, and mechanical systems
• Analyzed performance of new and preexisting control systems to determine best solutions to engineering problems (either electrical, software, mechanical, or hybrid solution)
Project Contributions include:
• Designed and tested automated high speed splicing sequence to function with existing customer equipment, minimizing operator error and allowing for non-stop production at top speeds of 1200 fpm of web conveyance.
• Designed and tested multistate safety gating, ensuring safe operation near high speed nipped roll without restricting operators
• Project lead for design of control of high speed printing line inducing integration of new drive and tension control equipment with existing line equipment, coordination of hydraulic printing rolls, automated temperature control of gas dryer, and brake tension control
• Analyzed drive performance of high speed (1000 mpm) line and adjusted control parameters for more stable/efficient performance, reducing machine down time.
• Integrated new multi-roll coa...
