Veiravan Annamalai's Problem Solving Experience:
- I developed a new wheel design by re-aligning the internal pores , that could improve the efficiency of the grinding wheel.
- I developed a new chemical conversion coating for abrasives that delayed their fracture, thereby enhancing grindingw heel life and performance.
- I developed a method of estimating grinding temperature from an analysis of grinding chips.
- I developed a turmeric based coolant for non polluting grinding operation.
- I developed a new instrument for characterising dust in abrasive particles.
- I developed a process metric for new product development that improved teh new product sale from 3% to 16% of total sale.
- I have developed a set of rules of Innovation that could enable any one to generate out-of-the-box-ideas for problem solving.
