Travis Zelfer’s Expertise I have moved from a steel bar mill making special bar quality (SBQ), merchant bar quality (MBQ) and rod to a continuous cast sheet mill. In Decatur my main focuses are on projects that increase the safety and profitability of the mill. Some of the projects I have completed are: -Material tracking program that searches all the material we have produced that is still on site. This allows us to monitor all inventories and keep product moving so we can ship it more quickly thereby increasing cash flow. -Material re-application program that compares current open orders with material we have on hold. If there is a match it alerts quality techs so they can re-apply the hold material to the open order. This way we don't have to melt more steel for a new order thereby moving previous inventory faster and cutting conversion costs. -Teammate development program that decreases the amount of time new teammates take to learn skills to become proficient. -Key process parameters tool. This tool takes all the information we are collecting from the melt shop all the way to the galv line and compares the coils in question to what we have produced in the last year. It organizes the information and displays it graphically so differences are quickly and easily seen which allows small changes to be seen early and fixed.Supervising 3 quality labs with over 12 people and summer interns Overseeing multiple projects in quality department Responsible for Production Parts Approval Process paperwork (PPAPs) Scanning Electron Microscope: automated feature analysis (AFAs) and customer claim forensic work Involved in process changes in melt shop and rolling mill Gather and prepare data to track quality issues in mill Set up electronic record keeping to replace paper inspection records. Lead free solder research Scanning Electron Microscope examination of samples Design and documentation of lead (Pb) free testing procedures Thermodynamic modeling of solder for residual stress calculations Nano-indentation hardness testing of samples Chemical removal of intermetallic compounds on chip components Tin whisker and tin pest experimentation. Design of parts and experiments for high definition laser projectors Design and set up optical testing equipment Product design Thermodynamic modeling Reliability and laser interference testing MEMS design of optical components.
