[b]ANNEXURE [/b]:
- Developed Silver electrode Charging using high surface area SS mesh instead of plain SS anode. Twice quantity can be charged at the same time.
- Developed electrochemical dissolution of metals resulted in less pollution and better crystal formation.
- Reduced rejections due to operator by easing the work like providing less discomfort and introduction of custom tools and hardware.
- Developed leak detection in containers using insulation method.
- Developed machine vision “stop poke yoke” to block polarity reversal during cell assembly.
- Developed custom software for HP datalogger.
- Developed voltametry method to detect the gaseous potential of lead alloy to detect alloy composition.
- Interfaced weighing balance to monitor and control process output and to implemented “Stop poke yoke” to block heavy & low weights. One more benefit is clear cut costing because of exact weight of raw materials can be retrived used for that particular order.
