Project Lead - Automation

• Oct 2018 - Mar 2019

Entering Elfab with no prior knowledge of the pressure safety industry, I quickly adapted to the technology involved in the production of rupture discs. During my 6 month placement at the company, I was tasked with the first stages of automating their SF6 rupture discs used in the switch gear industry. Evaluating output rate, mapping flow and identifying key suppliers of automation were some of the highlights I experienced during this project. After evaluating the investments required against the payback with current operations, I recommended it best to focus on increasing volumes before investing in the technology and saved the company a £340,000 investments at the time. With growth, this opportunity can reenter Elfab's strategy and the ground work will be in place to take forward. Show less
