Dedicated mobile equipment technician with 7+ years of experience diagnosing, repairing, and maintaining heavy-duty melt shop machinery, with focus on remote-controlled 480V AC scrap bucket transfer cars.
Skilled in servicing SEW-EURODRIVE gearmotors, BE/BMG fail-safe brakes, BGE/BME rectifiers, and BMK brake control modules.
Supports troubleshooting across 480V AC primary power, 230V DC braking circuits, and 24V DC wireless remote logic for safe furnace charging.
Uses multimeters, megohmmeters, schematics, and wiring checks to locate faults, coil degradation, and intermittent dropouts in high-heat environments.
- Performs mechanical repairs on gearboxes, axle alignments, and rail wheel trucks while helping reduce unscheduled downtime.
- Follows Lockout/Tagout and NFPA 70E practices during maintenance on forklifts, material handlers, and industrial transit systems.
- Troubleshoot and replace SEW BGE/BMK brake rectifiers and full-wave modules, ensuring correct single-phase 230V AC supply routing and reliable 230V DC voltage conversion.
- Utilized multimeters and megohmmeters to isolate intermittent wiring dropouts and coil degradation in high-heat melt shop environments, achieving high first-time fix rates.
- Interface wireless radio remote receiver signals with 24V DC control inputs on BMK modules, streamlining remote operator safety logic and system responsiveness.
- Perform mechanical overhauls on heavy-duty drive axles, gearboxes, and rail wheel trucks to significantly reduce unscheduled mechanical failures.
- Strictly enforce Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) protocols and NFPA 70E standards across all high-voltage and high-heat maintenance tasks, maintaining a 100% incident-free safety record.
- Troubleshot complex low-voltage 24V DC digital control networks and relay logic systems to minimize operational machinery downtime..
- Read and interpreted intricate multi-page electrical, hydraulic, and pneumatic schematics to rapidly isolate root-cause equipment faults.
- Collaborated with production teams to execute scheduled preventive maintenance (PM) checklists, extending equipment operational lifespan.
