I am extremely passionate in the field of welding and robotics. I am a 3rd generation welder and went to trade school for welding technology(98-00). Out of school I began my career as a welder. I was introduced to robotics in 2003. Since advancing in the field I held titles of Robotic Programmer, Robotic Technician, Weld Engineer, Field Service Engineer, Robotic Weld Department Supervisor and Weld Engineering Supervisor. Traveling the world for the industry. Was featured in 2014 issue of "The welding journal" magazine.Have also been an instructor for Basic and Advanced programming as well as maintenance for OTC/Nachi. I feel I am an expert in the field however still very humble and excited to continue to learn and advance my skills. It is possible to learn more every day in this field.

Streamlining function and operation has been at the forefront. Sometimes you need someone to take a second look at what is going. There is nothing magic about machinery it does what it is told to do. The trick is knowing what it needs to be told. I have been able to help my customers increase their production speeds, eliminate down time, increase product quality and throughput safely and efficiently. Usually there are things in the sequence that can be done different without adding unnecessary wear and tear on the equipment. Sometimes you have to reconfigure and speed things up, and sometimes you just need to start over. And having someone on site who has the experience and expertise to sort it all out will limit unnecessary mistakes as well as trial and error which increases project cost and lost production due to down time.
After my military service I began working manufacturing packaging equipment. For over 33 years I have worked in the packaging industry specializing in machine control and production line automation. I am very well versed in line control and very experienced with working production lines. From canning, bulk packaging to handling and packaging doors and beyond I have a wide range of experience in the industry.

Whether domestic or international I have dealt with the complete unknown when it comes to installing, servicing and modifying equipment of all types and manufacturers. I have the ability to step up to a piece of equipment with little or no knowledge and little or no documentation, wires hanging and labels missing, and still get the job done. I have been in the industry since 1984, with 33 years of practical experience in the packaging industry I have been exposed, and worked with all types of automation and designs. From basic to unbelievable I have dealt with them all. The challenge is only part of the equation. The knowledge that you have covered all the bases and the equipment does what it was designed to do is the real payoff.
I do prefer an actual plan with all the associated docs but we all know those jobs are few and far between! On a personal note, I am a digital kind of person, it is either right or wrong and I work toward that goal. I can deal with it but, "good enough" is not part of my vocabulary!
Simplimatic Engineering was an industry leader in canning and bottling. Simplimatic provided a complete line of packaging and container handling systems for Coke and Pepsi as well as breweries and more. At Simplimatic my duties were to install, troubleshoot, program and repair almost every piece of equipment on the line. From install, startup to completion I have done them all. Whether as a one man show or part of a team, Simplimatic Reps were a complete package when they showed up at the job site. From site management, programmer or mechanic we did it all, and we did it well.

The product line included semi and fully automatic, overhead and floor model stretch wrappers. The line also included full pallet conveyor systems with all the possible accessories, turntable and pop up chain transfers, scale units for weighing the pallets, top sheet dispensers and more.
Mima was one of my first jobs out of the Navy where I first began building control boxes and panels. In those days, the early 80’s, relay logic machines were still the bread and butter of the industry. I went from building complete control system for both relay logic and PLC equipment to lead man of general line assembly.
As lead man my duties were to supervise production and produce all products at Mima, both semi and fully automatic. We manufactured the complete machine at Mima, from raw steel to finished product. I have an excellent background in building machinery. I was likewise heavily involved with research and development and a quality control inspector.
During my final tour at Mima, I attended my first programming schools. Mima let the customer choose the PLC for their equipment. In turn I was exposed to a wide variety of PLC’s and programs, while still maintaining the relay logic line.
At Mima I developed a complete service school course for vendors and customers alike, for both in house or at the customers site. The courses included PLC programming and relay logic, basic electricity, troubleshooting and repair. They contained complete presentations of all stages of product assembly, from the first sprocket on the first shaft, to the finished product, tested and out the door. Just to make the story complete I worked at Mima 3 separate times, each tour I climbed another rung on the ladder.
At Spraymation I assembled, wired, commissioned, programmed, tested and troubleshot all of the Spraymation product line. I was involved with reseach and developement for not only the high speed packaging equipment but the automotive paint systems as well.
Spraymation designs and manufactures both standard and customized fluid dispensing systems. This includes both heated and non-heated fluids, along with related ancillary equipment for the precision application (extrusion of beads or dots; air dispersed patterns, slot nozzle patterns, air atomized and airless spray patterns) of:
Spraymation's systems are used for a multitude of applications, including:
BiLink was a tool and die shop. I did setup of multi-ton presses of all types, spot welding system and precision parts inspection. I know my way around a machine shop.
