PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
RANE ENGINE VALVE PVT LIMITED – Intern





Acquired knowledge in the manufacturing of engine valve
Studied and analyzed the various process parameters involved in the production of engine valves
Improved the rate of production of engine valves by 34% by varying the process parameters like clamping
pressure, anvil receding speed and upsetting pressure using a technique called “Six Sigma”
Participated in cross functional product-development team meetings and created designs using Auto CAD,
Solid-Works and CATIA V5
Learned work place behavior, discipline, importance of cooperation, team work, and work prioritization
PROJECT EXPERIENCE
“Deformation Analyses of Thin Film Solar Cells”
Aug 2014 – Dec 2014
.
 Designed and performed “simulation analysis” on “Thin Film CIGS Solar Cells” using SolidWorks.
 The results shows that the solar cell can be flexible up to 25mm in displacement and 21 degree in rotation.
“Exhaust Gas Analysis and Heat Balance Sheet on 4-Stroke Single Cylinder Diesel Engine” Jan 2013 – May 2013
 Prepared the Bio- diesel and its blends (B20 (20% Bio-Diesel + 80% Diesel), B30 (30% Bio-Diesel + 70% Diesel),
B70 (70% Bio-Diesel + 30% Diesel), B100 (100% Bio-Diesel)) using palm oil and performed the “Exhaust Gas
Analysis” on 4-Stroke Single Cylinder Diesel Engine
 Results shows that as the amount of Bio-diesel content increasing in the fuel (Diesel) the exhaust gas emissions
have gradually decreased and has a very low exhaust gas emissions for pure bio-Diesel
“Study of Cycle Time Element wise on Forging and Upsetting Machine”


July 2012 – Dec 2012
Studied and documented the manufacturing process of “Engine Valves”
Acquired knowledge in the valve manufacturing and analyzed the time taken by different processes like premachining process, machining process and final inspection involved in valve manufacturing
