Dover Corporation • employee • Roseville, MN, USA • 4h ago

Responsibilities:

CT Scan Operation & Optimization

System Operation: Safely and efficiently operate high-resolution industrial CT scanning systems (e.g., micro-CT, multi-source systems).
Scan Optimization: Determine optimal scan parameters (voltage, current, exposure, filters, voxel size) based on material density, geometry, and required resolution to minimize artifacts and maximize data quality.
Fixture Design: Design and fabricate custom, low-density fixtures to position complex prototype parts securely without interfering with X-ray penetration.

Metrology & Data Analysis

Dimensional Inspection: Perform full 3D inspections and compare CT volume data against nominal CAD models using advanced analysis software (e.g., Volume Graphics VGStudio MAX, GOM Inspect).
GD&T Analysis: Evaluate complex geometric features, including wall thickness, porosity, fiber orientation, and part-to-CAD variances using strict GD&T principles.
Reporting: Create comprehensive, visually intuitive metrology and inspection reports for design and quality engineering teams to accelerate product iterations.

New Product Development Support

Failure Analysis: Perform non-destructive root-cause analysis on failed prototypes or test samples to detect internal voids, cracks, assembly defects, or material delamination.
Design for Manufacturability (DFM): Partner with R&D engineers early in the design cycle to advise on features that optimize X-ray inspectability.
