Introduction
George joined Strategy 3, Inc. in 2015 with nine years of manufacturing experience in the composites industry. While working in positions such as Manufacturing Engineer, Project Engineer, CNC Work Cell Coordinator, and Testing Lab Coordinator. While in these roles George provided custom composite solutions to multiple industries that include Chemical, Marine, Pharmaceutical, Petroleum, Power, and Aerospace. |
Profile
George’s skill set includes Project Management, Outage Field Projects, CNC Machining of Composites and Metals, CNC Programming, Computer Programming, Facility Layouts, Material and Design Verification, Engineering Management, Tooling Design, and Capitol Equipment installation. George started in a Staff Engineering role and worked his way through various Production, Engineering and Quality Assurance roles at RL Industries, Inc. In a Technical Lead and Project Management position in the Middle East George managed the installation of one million dollars’ worth of custom high Nickle alloy equipment inside a six-million-dollar Fluoropolymer lined composite process scrubber. In 2015 George joined Strategy 3, Inc. as a Lead ImpleMentor.
Relevant Industry Experience
Project Management
In addition to managing the installation of equipment in the Middle East for Sadara Chemical Company, George has worked with the AEP (American Electric Power) during several outages to implement emergency composite repairs and component installations. Each of these projects included an accelerated schedule, and a scope of work that included multiple suppliers, contractors and trades.
While working at Intel Corporation George performed composite repairs, thermoplastic lining inspections and repairs for both new equipment and warranty service. During these projects George had to manage multiple trades and contractors and ensure all supporting documentation exceeded both Intel and regulatory standards while meeting the projects schedule and budget.
CNC Machining
At RL Industries, Inc. George was involved in the machining of composite materials, polymers, and metals. George helped develop the fixtures, programs, and procedures to machine polymers to within .010”. George developed standardized procedures and automated programming tools that allowed an Ultrasonic Knife work cell to reduce programming times by 75%, increased material utilization by 20%, and led to a 15% reduction in re-work and scrap material.
Quality Assurance
At RL Industries, Inc. George over saw the testing laboratory, where he established standardized documentation and reporting techniques that reduced documentation time by 85%. As part of his experience in the testing laboratory George is familiar with several testing methods which include ASTM D638 (Composite Tensile Testing), ASTM D790 (Composite 3-Point Flexural Tests), ASTM D2584 (Ignition Loss), ASTM D7078 (Composite V-Notch Shear), ASTM D695 (Compression). As well as these testing methods George has extensive experience with ASME RTP-1 and ASEM Boiler and Pressure Code Section X.
Composite Materials
As part of George’s time at RL Industries, Inc. he worked frequently with a variety of composite application processes, these include Hand Lay-up, VARTM (Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding), RTM (Resin Transfer Molding), and Filament Winding. Using these process George was involved in the transition of multiple products from traditional materials and construction methods to light weight high strength composite methods and materials to increase the quality, efficiency, and safety of the products. For the US Navy George was involved in providing a composite solution that replaced over 200 tons of concrete from the most recent class of cargo ships, which allowed for an increase in cargo capacity and provided nearly 8” of additional vertical clearance in storage compartments.
Design
George has experience designing composite molds, press molds, and machining fixtures. Among these include designing and manufacturing a pattern for a composite 8” diameter Volute Nozzle that wrapped around diameter of an 84” diameter conical vessel. George designed a fixture and machining process that allowed a 30” machining envelope to machine 109” parts to within .015”, with this fixturing and machining process RL Industries was able to increase internal machining processes that eliminated one-hundred and twenty thousand dollars in sub contracted work.
