Mill-Max Internship
During the summer of 2018, I got the opportunity to intern at Mill-Max, an interconnect components manufacturing company in Oyster Bay, NY. I worked in the tool room along side several machinists to machine parts for manufacturing machines. Below are a few of the parts I machined.
Air Jet Holder - Cold Rolled Steel
Clip Bracket - Tool Steel
Auto Spring-Pin Loader Front Bracket - Aluminum
Auto Spring-Pin Loader Side Plate Guide - Aluminum
Spring Pin Assembly Machine
After we machined all the parts, I helped assembly them together into the final machine.
Thanks for viewing!
