Employability skills help young people and adults to find work, to make a positive contribution within work, and consequently to add value to their employing organisation as they develop their career.
D2N2 have prioritised the development of employability skills for young people as an integral component of its economic strategy to be delivered through the articulation and roll-out of an Employability Framework to address questions of employer demand and skills supply at a manageable local level.
Employers, learning providers, local government and other key stakeholders can work together to define what an economic area needs and then implement plans to meet those needs together.
At the core of this new Framework is the idea that all young people should have the opportunity to engage with employers, learn about the world of work and develop their employability skills.
It is critical that the D2N2 Employability Framework prepares
young people for lifelong careers in the area’s industries. This is about making the young people of D2N2 both employable and effective career managers.
The development of employability skills is not just a quick fix, although it should increase the number of young people who are working, rather, over the long term it must also support the development of higher level skills through Apprenticeships and participation in further and higher education.
The young people of the D2N2 area should complete their education with good qualifications, experience of the workplace and the ability to secure employment that will contribute to the area’s economy.

GALAN MANUFACTURING PLANT
Galan plant is the palace of my internship. It has around 15000m2
for material preparation, fabrication
and finishing department has included. The Galan plant is capable of handling products like cargo
bodies, trailers, semitrailers, sugar cane haulage trailers and so on. Apart from its proximity to
customers, the Galan plant has other advantages in regard to improving capacity utilization, faster and
shorter delivery time and competitiveness. During my internship time I was worked as a welder.
Welding is the production type which used to join the metal to metal as permeates. During my intern
time, all employees have not concluded their assignments at scheduled time. Some of my host
company machinery is un-functional and many times broken repetition, because all machinery is old.
As well as the functional machinery they have didn’t use efficiently. Therefore, all jobs are done by
man power and also most working area is not comfortable for welding lack of kaizen is described on
the company. During my internship I was welded some trailer bodies. The trailer/cargo bodies
assembly operation is starting to ending is done by welding operation, grinding operation and hammer
because some parts are force fitting.

3.1 DETAILS OF EXPERIENCES
During my internship period, I was assigned to the fabrications Departments at the MIE
Galan plants. The fabrications Department is responsible for the assembly of cargo/trailer
bodies and welding all parts until to finalizing. This includes: ensuring interpreting drawing
with specification parts. The assignment is completed timely and accurately in compliance
with exactly assembling, and that the company welders are join the parts and welding all
joining parts. As contain the information necessary to meet reporting requirement to
foreman’s, for quality inspectors and reporting of finals results to finishing department.
My main duty was to assist the welder with implementation of the goals of the department,
which included various tasks depending on the daily activities like checking of welding parts
as drawings, inspecting conformance to specifications welding technology standards , make
safety properly, control quality of welding and all operation of welding is done by mig
machine.
3.2 Major duties I was assigned during my internships are
- Checking welding parts to ensure compliance with specification and drawings
- Inspecting assembly to monitor progress and ensure conformance to
specifications welding technology standards
- Direct welding of the parts to ensure good performance stay with the
industrial schedule and maintain quality of work and standards
- Making sure use safety properly
- Giving over directions to workers as to what needs to be done to avoid
repetitive mistakes by the workers as well as reworks.
- Control plant welder welding quality
- Checking all parts of Trucks is properly assembly based on drawings
23. 23
3.2.1 Checking welding parts to ensure compliance with specification and drawings
I was assign on the welding parts to ensure compliance with specification and drawings.
All of activities are done according to drawing &welding operation, the welder properly
welds the part. Depending on what the parts to be required for what position to
assembled. Welding operation is the measure activity of Mesfin industrial engineering
&the company to assemble the cargo/trailer bodies also helps to remove errors and
reworks. All parts are detail in is specific in drawing & by visually inspection.
3.2.2 Inspecting assembly to monitor progress and ensure conformance to specifications welding
technology standards
According to MIE is Visual inspection, those the first method used when inspecting a weld for soundness. It
must
take place prior to, during, and after welding. Many standards require its use before
other methods because there is no point in submitting an obviously bad weld to sophisticated inspection
techniques.
Visual inspection at an early stage of production can also prevent under welding and over
welding. Welds that are smaller than called for in the specifications cannot be
tolerated. Beads that are too large increase costs unnecessarily and can cause
distortion through added shrinkage stress. After welding, visual inspection can detect a variety
of surface flaws, including cracks, porosity and unfilled craters, regardless of subsequent
inspection procedures. Dimensional variances, war page, and appearance flaws, as well as
weld size characteristics, can be evaluated
During, my intern task is inspecting assembly to monitor progress and ensure conformance
to specifications welding technology standards. When the company receives its Inspecting
assembly to monitor progress, the company verifies that the welding technology standards are
consistent or compatible with the welding in the company’s ensure conformance to
specifications welding technology standards. This process of confirming the amounts is
referred to the quality of welding.
On my intern I held this duty anytime it had to be performed. After the reconciliation,
during my internships I reported to my supervisor. Assembly the join process which drawing
transfer to works most inspection on assembly is length measure exactly. The welder controls
the torch and rod simultaneously, giving him or her lot of control over the weld. Gas metal arc welding
(GMAW), sometimes referred to by its subtypes metal inert gas (MIG)welding or metal active gas
24. 24
(MAG) welding , is a welding process in which an electrical arc forms between a consumable wire
electrode and the work piece metal which heats the work piece metal ,causing them to melt and join.
As shielding gas feeds through the welding gun, which shields the process from contaminants in the
air.
Two types of operation on MIG machine:
Those are automatic and semi-automatic operation system. On Mesfin industrial engineering the
welder is using automatic operation system. Welding is in generally term for various processes used to
joining metal parts by producing coalescence, called weld, at a joint. This is usually done by applying
heat and energy whilst bringing the pieces of metal together.
3.2.3 Direct welding of the parts to ensure good performance stay with the industrial schedule.
One other my duty intern was responsible for the direct welding of the parts to ensure
good performance stay with the industrial schedule. Properly manage welding of the parts
with schedule time is one of the most common causes of manufacturing leads time
shortages. I had duty of confirming direct welding of the parts made by clients according
to foreman has scheduled. This sometimes gets a little production challenging. In my host
company most of works have scheduled for this welding operation proposes. During my
internship time I weld the parts depending on welding quality and easily making system.
3.2.4 Making sure use safety properly
Mesfin Industrial Engineering Galan plant was made to plan and provide internal control
measures on safety by safety departments. Safety department is not controlled all who has
activity’s to in shop without safety. If you are to makes any activities without safety,
you’re has become to penalty based on company manual. These internal controls
enlightened my knowledge on Risk Assessment that many host organizations face.
3.2.5 Control plant welder welding quality
At that company welding quality is control by quality inspector. MIE Galan plants have
giving over directions to workers as to what needs to be done to avoid repetitive mistake
by the workers as well as reworks. A quality is an estimate of welding defects. Welding
quality is depending on the material to weld, selection of welding electrode. Which
means the thickness welding size must be much the thickness of metal & type materials.
The machine power is adjusting depend the thickness of metal (work piece) and position
of welding.
25. 25
The employer has must be skilled and knowable because Sometimes the welding part is
affected by porosity by cause of selection improper materials, electrode, and angle to
welding & current to be weld.
3.2.6 Checking all parts of Truck bodies is properly assembly based on drawings
The foremost area my intern specialized was Internal Checking all parts of Truck bodies is properly
assembly based on drawings. I was given the right to interpreting of drawings and this includes
organizing manufacturing leads time and drawings files to make sure they were in order before the
preparation for assembling. Internal assembly is concerned with evaluating and improving the
effectiveness of vehicle bodies. The assembly particularly covered jigs and fixtures.my intern was
made to generate a report to my host company adviser about the parts of assembly, quality of welds,
production lead times.
According to my host company the Trucks parts are there: -false chassis, frame, body.
False Chassis consist, the vehicle frame and everything of the vehicle, to it expects the bodies
Include, right and left board, cross member according her length. Frame is the strong metal structure
that providing a mounting place for other parts of the vehicle. Body over frame construction, chassis
parts and body bolt to the frame, side frame which length 2330mm × 150mm, big omega 2450mm ×
120mm×130mm, small omega, false chassis with frame, winch, but during false chassis with frame
assembly keep the measurement perfectly.
Body is outside of the Trucks, and attractive covering for their chassis. Body has final
welding parts, latch catch, board protector, stand colon, grill fitting, Hinge, pocket, board,
ladder and etc.
3.3, My Contribution to the organization
Safety is the main in the whole industry. The human body is affected easily so, the safety is
must for employer and company. Weld optimization side board weld bed length. I was
designed to control welding bed length in the company and the areas that needs quality of
welding. This task will assist management to reduce cost of production in the company has
possibility of facing in the near future. I also wrote a proposal to my host company which
involved a length of weld bed cost effective. The proposal aimed to improve unnecessary
welding on the company generated. Conducting of Internal assembly part and providing
report. I recommend the welder easily assemble to establish the trailer/cargo bodies & also
worked hard so far to create value and apply my competence, motivation and work skills to
make a strong contribution to Mesfin Industrial Engineering PLC Galan plant Company.

3.4, Advantage of internships
The industrial training is based on the benefit, which it gives to me and my hosting company. This
report has been written because it is curtailing to MSc students like me to real exposure for the
practical application of what we learnt in the class.
For me as organization consists, workers with different; educational back ground, ethnic
back ground, religion and characters, and six week my stay with Mesfin industrial
engineering PLC as intern has helped me;
- Have opportunity to develop interpersonal skill with workers
- Have opportunity to gain practical skill
- Develop Skill to interprets drawing to work perfectly
- Increase confidence on practically
For Company;
- They have an opportunity to know the importance of well skilled persons
- Optimization of work assignment with employee’s
- They transfer traditional work system to nontraditional system
- They gate opportunity to produce easily mass-productions
- They minimize wastage of material and manufacturing lead time.
3.5, what I have learn during internship
During my internship I learn the following lessons:
Exact drawing interpreting to works
Strong MIG welding operation Skills utilizing position of welding and types welding in
practically.
Ability to work with different people (team work) in achieving departmental as well as
organizational goal.
Strong organizational work assignment management skills and communication skill.
Assembling vehicle bodies.
Welding quality, Risk in safety and Compliance with specifications drawings.
3.6, Challenge and Problem
In MIE the big problem is interrupt of jobs. Because off customer is change own ideas. That
means as the company employees are tell to me for example the customer is at first order the
trailer and changes own ideas to tankers and etc. When we came to fabrication workshop MIG
welding parameters are the most important factors affecting on the quality, productivity and cost
of welding.
27. 27
Because the machine is very old and therefore, the machine is not feed properly wire electrode
and shielding gas. Many times, damaged and working process is stop up to maintain. So, I was
affected my eyes many times. In Mesfin industrial engineering some of welder has unbalanced
skill. Because of this much time unbalanced work distribution is occurred to more understanding
the drawings. I must be used computer for drawing. It is difficult using both computer and
working as welder. The ray of welding is affected my eyes therefore have not properly use the
computers. The company system old and so many jobs are done by man power and during these
times our body feels tired due to overload work. No internet access is there because all working
in shop.
Conclusion
I have met most of the objectives, but its success was under our expectations. Practically it has
opened my eyes to working life, enlightened us socially, and matured us as an adult to some
extent. It has strengthened my technical base and enabled us to integrate theory with engineering
practice. Finally, it has given us a clear sense of direction in my future studies and career as a
mechanical engineer.
Recommendation
Host Company
My training experience at Mesfin industrial engineering PLC Galan plant, I have been satisfying
there is very little to complain about Office to trainer and internet access. In case the foreman has
understand the trainer. All machines are traditional, if there are transfer to modern machine is
much better. And use work balance distributions because some of welder has unbalanced skill so
it has become over load of works between the employers. Properly safety using is fine for max
production and reduces accidents on the company. Give the drawing reading training for welder
is better and respecting the welder is better to love on the jobs tittle and increase production rate.
