What will you be doing
Imagine waking up in a hotel anywhere in the world. Today is the day youve been preparing for months: the customer acceptance test. Your journey began at the office gathering all relevant information documents drawings parameter files and developing the low-level software and configuration files. The past few months on-site have been intense but youve met many people and become an integral part of the multidisciplinary international site team. Together youve successfully integrated the sorter into the customers complete solution. This process included I/O checks commissioning the (safety) PLC parameterizing and fine-tuning frequency drives interfacing with other systems and optimizing the FSC. Your analytical skills combined with the support of your colleagues have helped you overcome challenges along the way. As the day progresses you execute test cases according to the test protocol. The sorter is just one component of the overall material handling system which performs well meeting the set requirements and proving its functionality. You feel a sense of pride in what the team has the evening you celebrate the success with a joint dinner. Now youre ready to enter the final phase of the project: the stand-by period providing support during the initial weeks of operation before handing over to the service department. With this project nearing completion youre excited to move on to your next adventure in a new location.
