Job Description
Assignment type: Internship
Start date: As soon as possible
Assignment duration: <6 months
Location: Veghel
Educational Level: Mbo / Hbo
Desired study: Engineering, Mechatronics and Industrial Automation
Language: English
Description of the assignment
Vanderlande is sending engineers from different offices to customer sites all over the world. These engineers are responsible for commissioning the conveyor systems at our customers. All equipment on a customer site needs to be setup in a certain order, and according to our standards.
To make this successful, it is important that we capture the best practices, and repeat them in the exact same way, on all different customer sites. A lot of this information is already available, only not in the consistent way that we would like.
The assignment consists of two parts:
-
The first part is to analyse the commissioning steps that our engineers take on the customer sites. You have to ask feedback about the steps, learnings from the stakeholders (commissioning engineers) and verify the steps by yourself in the test environment. Documenting the details of those steps is the basis for the second part of the assignment. In the first part of the assignment you will work with different technical components of our conveyor system, for example: PLCs, Frequency controllers, IO modules, etc. You need to reach out pro-actively to the different engineers to get the information required and perform tests by yourself.
-
The second part of the assignment is to transform the documented details into a form that is most useful for the commissioning engineers, so the steps can be replicated on site in the most efficient / optimal way. During the assignment we expect you to research as well what are the different options of representing the information, and what suits best for this situation. The current intention is to make video’s of the commissioning steps. For this you will have to create a basic script, and make a low-key video, where the focus is mainly on the technical details, and less on the video quality.
Description of department
The Engineering department is responsible for the engineering and commissioning of our systems, both in-house and on the customer site. You will perform your assignment in a young group of +/- 15 PLC engineers, who are working both in the office in Veghel and on the customer sites.
