PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Process Engineer
Siam Nawaloha Foundry, Saraburi, Thailand; 1996 - present
Analyze casting defects and implement countermeasures plan and standardization. Design heat treatment processes for both new products and rework castings. Conduct metal analysis characterization for potential customers.
· Identified a wide range of casting defects resulting in correct process evaluation and, thus, reject reduction and prevention.
· Designed various heat treatment processes for rework castings improving furnace availability by 40%.
· Performed various tests on research and development of new metals which met customer specifications plus cost-effective manufacturing.
· Participated in the development of new alloys which are more economical and have better mechanical properties that their existing counterparts.
· Created a document which compiled the characteristic, production process, heat treatment, fettling and welding requirement, application, and International standard equivalent for all the metals currently being manufactured in the company (including alloy cast irons).
Technical Engineer
