• Manufacturing feasibility study for new model introduction in existing line.
• Develop BIW process plans for Manual and Robotic welding Lines.
• Develop BIW Robotic welding simulation cells and OLP in PS Team center / standalone.
• Generate standards and check sheets for Simulation and OLP through benchmarking and lessons learnt.
• Collaborate with CME process, PLC and Line builders for verification of Simulation and OLP during DAP and trials at suppliers.
• Installation and commissioning with post SOP support for Process and cycle time prove out.
• Line layout, Manufacturing process flow, Cycle time chart and RFQ preparation of BIW sub assembly.
• Do process study wrt gun, equipment, fixtures and suggest suitable changes in product to ensure first time right manufacturability.
• Build up the station/cell/line in PS by adding all relevant resources.
• Check for Gun reachability, apply all kinematics to relevant tools and create robot path with zero collision with basic tools.
• Generate Basic path (welding, tip dressing, etc) and zoning conditions to avoid any collision.
• Collaborate and Coordinate with Line builders to get the line simulation done and optimize the robot paths, robot zoning and again give feedback for any improvement required in design.
