Are you the enthusiastic, talented intern/ graduate intern we're looking for?
You will be participating in the Cutting Elements & Metals Industrialization team at Philips Drachten, where you will get the opportunity to work on the ‘From data to knowledge’ assignment. For this assignment you will work with the industrialization team, where state-of-the-art high-quality metal forming processes are developed and implemented into the industrial domain of mass manufacturing. In the total development chain new functions and products are developed. The industrialization team will ensure that the right function is delivered to our customers for the right price. In this transition from development to industrialization it is key to develop the right supply set up and develop capable and robust manufacturing technologies. Our development of new forming technologies continues into the mass manufacturing phase, where we gather process and product data of all process steps and products by implementing measurements and sensors. To enable Capability and Robustness improvements, several activities have already started up to ensure we are able to learn faster using the data. For the next project we want to:
- Applying Design of Experiments (DoE) to a new production line for high-accuracy cutting elements during industrialization ramp-up.
- Using data science and machine learning techniques to identify critical process parameters influencing dimensional accuracy and defect occurrence.
- Developing a predictive model for process robustness and potential integration into predictive maintenance and quality control systems.
- Delivering best practices for leveraging production data to accelerate industrialization and ramp up faster by gaining knowledge from generated data.
