The mission

Collected needs at the bench, coordinated materials and suppliers, ran the 5S program across two workshops.

The tools

Each tool: the need, the machine (FDM, SLS, CNC, laser), the material, the iterations. Gallery coming with captions.

My part

I ran the needs collection and produced the tools; the 5S standard was set with the quality team.
