      Apr 2016 - Jun 2016
      Intern

      Carried out my graduation project in the Quality Control Department of Continental AG locatedin Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Developed a measuring program for the valve block of theelectronic stability control module which is part of the braking system for many vehicle models. The program was developed using a coordinate measuring machine which generated a report with all the measured and calculated geometric features, and a comparison with the nominal values. As a secondary role, had to test most of the instruments used for quality control by making reports which determined if they were within the established tolerance parameters. Show less
