Work Experience(15)
Various robotics programming jobs, some emergency ones as well, 7 Axis, With 8 Tool tool changer, one with pushcorp wire wheel, as well as two gripper tools, and 4 flame treater station tools, and finally Cognex camara was last position, currently I am setting up a 8 robot cell with iR Vision-Conveyor-Tracking and 4 stationary camara system, with 6 axes gripper robots, setting up of ROS,DCS, calibrating of the iR Vision, setting up conveyor tracking with pulse coders, as well as programming the vision for part detection and triggers, as well as setting TCP's, Frames,Payloads, and setting up Fanuc PKTool.
Commissioning of robotic cells, mastering of robots, I/O addressing, setting up comms, cycle time reductions, DCS writing both on pendant and Roboguide to adhere to Rivian code, teaching programs from scratch, and loading and reteaching of simulation ones as well, IR vision teaching, (Including Gige) among various other jobs in the cell for commissioning.
XOS Glendale CA 1 Week Contract Support for a current project in build shop, reprogramming, checking I/O, working with the PLC tech on communications, verifying code for employer for any oddities or changes. Nidec Motors Princeton IN 3 Week Contract 10/18/21 to 11/07/21 Reteaching PR's also physical points, setting comms, resetting and assigning I/O, commissioning, tool changer reteaching, machine tending teaching, DCS adjustments, sensor setting, tool reteaching, as well as recovery path teaching, assigning DCS parameters, building DCS on Roboguide for adjustments to current cell for added conveyors, and safety inspection (Audit) boxes, verifying code to get cell up to buy off and production.
Contract Job, through Fives, to assist Kawasaki with robot camara calibration during July Plant Shutdown.
for Fives DyAg, Restructuring of current running production programs, helping diagnose errors, building DCS (Fanuc) cycle time reductions, camara calibrations, obtaining all master counts and verifying calibrations, worked with Tesla & contract PLC engineers on improvements to the current handshaking, implementing those changes, also comparing all A&B lines robot codes to look for differences in program structure, and what I call code violations, code that was not Telsa standard, noting all. Then implementing those changes after Tesla approved them.
