About his works

“The companies take consultation for expensive investments like purchasing Robots, CNC Lathes etc. or investing in facility layout. Decisions related to such investment are important for companies. In one my industrial project in TRF Ltd. - I reduced the manufacturing time of pulley by proposing the alternate layout for the pulley section of the company. We proposed the cellular layout for the pulley section and suggested the alternative layout for pulley section. This reduces the the distance materials required to move during the manufacturing process. the work was well accepted and appreciated by the company,” says Rajanikar.
