Precision rotating systems
Automatic Dynamic Balancing for Turbochargers & Components
Evaluating automated dynamic balancing machines for turbocharger compressor wheels, turbine rotors, and complete shaft assemblies. The program defines rotor-specific workholding, measurement capability, unbalance correction methods, and production integration, with acceptance based on residual-unbalance limits and repeatability.
The objective is a scalable balancing process that supports rotor quality, vibration control, and consistent production performance.
Equipment selection & process development
Space-component assembly
Precision Bearing Swaging & Proof-Load Testing
Developing a controlled roller-swaging and proof-load verification process for space-component bearing assemblies. The scope combines application-specific tooling, controlled bearing retention, and calibrated load and displacement measurement to assess installation integrity against engineering requirements.
Planning emphasizes test automation, traceable results, and repeatable acceptance criteria.
Assembly & test process development
Leadership approach
Technical depth. Practical execution.
I treat improvement as an operating system, not a collection of isolated events. Every initiative must create clear ownership, reliable standards, visible performance, and a path to sustainment.
01 / Diagnose
See the system
Observe the work, validate data, define the constraint, and separate symptoms from root causes.
02 / Design
Engineer the solution
Combine process knowledge, quality controls, automation, and economics into a robust concept.
03 / Deploy
Make change usable
Pilot at the point of work, involve operators, control risk, and translate the concept into standard work.
04 / Sustain
Build the rhythm
Measure outcomes, assign accountability, develop capability, and continuously refine the system.
