autoclaves, quench tank and heater control box totaling.
• Implemented a PM software program to track scheduled maintenance, downtime, costs, parts inventory and oil analysis.
• Worked on project to reduce scrap by using an induction coil to melt rubber out of failed stators so they could be reworked.
• Performed a Value Stream Mapping Kaisan to reduce WIP and balance work cell loads.
Warehouse Manager
Arrow Engine Company Tulsa, OK 3/06 – 7/08
