About
Structural Optimization: Improved chute and platform assembly integrity through precise fit-up and weld
sequencing, reducing post-installation rework by 25% and enhancing plant reliability.
•
Downtime Reduction: Rehabilitated screen housings, conveyor frames, and hopper liners during planned
shutdowns, contributing to a 15% reduction in breakdown downtime.
•
Quality Excellence: Implemented strict weld inspection and dimensional verification processes, achieving a
zero-rework rate on final job sign-offs aligned to OEM and ISO fabrication standards.
•
Cost Efficiency: Executed precise material cutting and utilisation planning using oxy-acetylene and plasma
processes, minimising material wastage by approximately 18%.
•
Safety Leadership: Promoted Zero Harm culture across LOTO, confined space, and hot-work procedures,
maintaining a 100% incident-free record across high-risk fabrication environments.
