Makino
Makino is a world leader in metal-cutting and machining technology. As a leader in advanced manufacturing machine tool technology, Makino enables its customers to realize the highest level of quality with the fastest time to market. When companies make the parts that matter for automotive, aerospace, medical, die-mold and other industries worldwide, they make them with Makino.
SUMMARY
Responsible for the development of Makino automated system proposals utilizing Makino machining products, such as horizontal and vertical machining centers. The proposed systems range from single machine automated cells to multi-machine / multi-million dollar production systems. The automated systems consist of automated machining cells integrated with auxiliary equipment, such as part markers, material handling systems, and inspection stations. The proposal engineer must collect the required application information, such as part types to be produced, volumes, and machine process information, and develop an automated system proposal that meets the requirements of the application. The proposal content consists of layouts, system description, cost estimates, and final proposal documents. The Automation Proposal Engineer must work very closely with the PM Proposal Engineering group and other internal Makino organizations in the development of the proposal and integration of the automation system content with the overall Makino proposal.
ESSENTIAL DUTIES, RESPONSIBILITIES and AUTHORITIES
include the following. Others may be assigned.
Evaluate and determine the information require to successfully create and complete an automated system proposal. Develop concept layouts for the proposed automated systems in AutoCAD and at times in a 3D format. Work with 3rd party suppliers to generate quotations for auxiliary equipment required for an automated system. Develop cost estimate sheets for the automated systems, working with internal and external suppliers to collect all associated costs for an automated program. Develop the final proposal for submission to the customer, including appropriate terms and conditions and program payment terms. If other organizations within Makino will be creating the final proposal for submission to the customer, the Automation Proposal engineer must provide the appropriate information to the other organizations in a clear, accurate, and complete format. Develop presentations for customer proposal reviews. Present automated system proposals to customers, either at Makino or at customer's facility. Maintain a sufficient knowledge of the technologies and products that apply to automated machine tending applications. This will require attending exhibits, seminars, and training classes. QUALIFICATIONS:
To perform this job successfully, an individual must be able to perform each essential duty satisfactorily. The requirements listed below are representative of the knowledge, skill, and/or ability required. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.
Knowledge of the standard Makino automation product offerings, i.e. pallet-based automated systems. Knowledge of automated machining systems (robot and gantry-based automation) working in conjunction with a variety of machine tool types, accepted industry practices, and competitive environment is required. Basic knowledge of comprehensive workpiece machining systems, workholding devices during part transfer, auxiliary processing equipment (i.e. workpiece washers), and material handling processes is required to effectively concept and propose applicable integrated automated systems. Basic knowledge of machining practices and workholding devices during machining is desired to effectively develop and communicate automation concepts to other organizations, such as the PM Proposal Engineering group. Familiarity with personal computers, word processing, spreadsheets, databases, solid modeling systems (primarily SolidWorks), CAD systems (primarily AutoCAD), and presentation application packages is required. Effective communication and presentation skills, both verbal and written. Ability to travel to customer locations for proposal data collection and proposal presentations. (Up to 25%)
We believe that the interests of our company and people are inseparable, and we are committed to developing a diverse team of creative and independent professionals. Employees enjoy a stable work environment from a company with years of success and growth in the machine tool industry.
Makino offers competitive pay, generous benefits including Health/Dental, company paid life insurance/LTD/STD, onsite cafeteria and fitness center as well as ongoing training and tuition reimbursement.
