PARTH PATEL

Hardworking and passionate co-op seeker in fall 2023 with strong organizational skills eager to secure entry-level as Mechanical Engineering position. Ready to help team achieve company goals.

➢ Simple Laser Security System, September 2017
• Designed a basic DIY laser-based security system that acts like a tripwire and activates an alarm when the laser is interfered with.
• Generated the circuit, by connecting components like LDR, resistor, buzzer, and transistor. I acquired soldering tactics and even how to connect components on a breadboard through these projects.

➢ Solar Lamp, August 2020
• Generated solar lamp, whose primary function was to be charged by solar energy. The most intriguing feature of the lamp was its ability to store energy for up to 24 hours at a time.
• Completed the solar lamp under the allowed dimensions with minimum budget and resources.

➢ Pallet Stopper, November 2022
• It was a component of an input shaft running assembly. Pallet Stopper was taken out of the assembly because some of the components weren't functioning properly.
• The Pallet Stopper was dismantled into 18 small parts. Each part was given a 2D and 3D model using Solid Works, made a Solid Works assembly for those components. All parts and the full assembly were detailed in a sketched drawing with fits and tolerances. With the assistance of the senior engineer and the supervisor, each component was inspected, and any defective components were noted.
• The necessary parts were then purchased from the supplier using the detail drawing of the defective parts. Implemented all the defective parts into the pallet stopper. Recreated the assembly for the Pallet Stopper. Pallet stoppers were installed in the production process and performed as expected.
• The new pallet stopper was about $2000 CAD, and we just ordered the defective Stopper parts. There were approximately 3 defective components with corner chips. We just ordered those components, which went for about $369 CAD. We applied the same strategy to numerous additional assembly lines, and it was successful. These helped the organization, and the maintenance department in particular, save a lot of money.
