A West Indian auto electrical manufacturer, supplier to major Indian automobile manufacturer was looking for developing new starter motors and wiper motors for two wheelers and three wheelers. Five different types of starter motors and two different types of wiper motors were developed over a period of three years. A team of four engineers was involved from conceptualization to commercialization phases.

Project cae - Process planning
A West Indian auto electrical manufacturer, supplier to major Indian automobile manufacturer wanted to evolve production process plan for systematically manufacturing the component in production lines including built in QC systems.
Systematic Process planning was evolved for 5 different starter motors and two different wiper motors for Bajaj Auto Ltd, which later were introduced in production lines of client facility.
A south Indian auto electrical supplier was supplying starter motor yokes to an international auto electrical manufacturer. The field pole fixing holes were made by a multi spindle horizontal drilling machine. This operation was producing enormous burrs which was difficult to clean and also hazardous to the operators. It consumed nearly 90 seconds per components.
A team of three engineers worked on the project and a new system was developed to carry-out the same operation. The new operation was totally burr free, much faster (20 seconds) and occupied 25% of the floor of the horizontal drilling machine. The machine used was a general purpose machine.
More than 1000 press tools and molding tools were designed and manufactured for various components of different products like starter motors, wiper motors, head lights, horns, rice cookers, seat sliders, seat recliners. The team also developed the assembly lines and fixtures for all the above products.
A south Indian domestic appliances manufacturer was trying to differentiate product offering on health and enhanced functionalities. A rice cooker modeled on imported rice cooker was developed by reverse engineering. The imported rice cooker had inherent drawbacks like improper functioning and health hazards. A new cooker was developed after eliminating the defects. The samples of new design were developed and tested successfully.
