PROJECTS & RESEARCH

• Current Status: Tooling Ongoing. 

• I designed and engineered the "FreshNest Infinity," an innovative refrigerator crisper system that quadruples vegetable shelf-life (increasi ng freshness from 1 week to 4 weeks). The project spanned the entire product development lifecycle, including concept, prototyping, and testing. I executed a rigorous Design for Manufacture (DFM) strategy, delivering a complex 8-part assembly utilizing just 6 injection molds for efficient production.

• Current Status: Mass Production. 

• I engineered a refrigerator backsheet focused on material efficiency and structural integrity. By implementing strategic structural formings (ribs/embossing), I successfully reduced the sheet thickness from 0.3mm to 0.2mm—a 33% material reduction—while maintaining the required strength and rigidity. Additionally, I redesigned the assembly interface, creating an improved locking mechanism between the backsheet and side cabinet to ensure a more robust and secure fit during assembly.

• Current Status: Tooling Ongoing. 

• I led the end-to-end development (concept to DFM) of a universal refrigerator body stand designed to standardize components across 5 different models. By engineering a common two-part assembly, I improved manufacturing efficiency and parts interchangeability. Furthermore, I innovated on the traditional design by reclaiming "dead space" within the stand to integrate a multipurpose storage drawer, adding significant user value and extra storage capacity without altering the refrigerator's footprint.

• Current Status: Mass Production. 

• A new 163 Litre refrigerator model has been developed from our best-selling 163L model, now featuring Smart Control for front-door temperature adjustment and Inverter technology for energy efficiency and quieter operation. I have modified and optimized the parts for this model and successfully implemented it in the production line. Since most components remain common with the existing series, the upgrade required minimal investment, making it both cost-effective and innovative.

• Current Status: Mass Production. 

• Designed and implemented a compressor back cover to improve protection, airflow, and safety. Previously, there were no back covers on the model.

• Current Status: Mass Production. 

• Designed and implemented a plastic bottom cabinet to replace the traditional metal-reinforced assembly in the 170L refrigerator. This innovation reduced material costs, replaced a manual multi-part assembly with a single injection-molded component, cutting process costs and significantly improving production speed. The new design also made the cabinet lighter in weight, enhancing efficiency and ease of handling while maintaining durability.

• Current Status: Mass Production. 

• Designed and implemented an electronic temperature control system replacing the mechanical control, delivering more accurate regulation and saving refrigerator space by housing all components within the liner. The upgrade also introduced programmable cabinet light adjustment and a Super Cooling Mode for rapid chilling, enhancing both functionality and user convenience.

• Current Status: Mass Production. 

• Designed and implemented a new cooling circuit for a 150L Direct Cool refrigerator model, covering the full thermal system design. The project included evaporator and condenser design, suction line optimization, cooling load calculations, and compressor selection. Rigorous testing and validation ensured reliable performance, efficient cooling, and smooth integration into mass production.

• Current Status: Mass Production. 

• Developed a new 150L Direct Cool refrigerator model, including the design of a new liner, back sheet, and side panel. To minimize investment, the project utilized common parts from the existing 500S series and incorporated doors from two different models. This approach enabled the creation of a cost-effective new model for customers while ensuring efficient production and part compatibility.

• Current Status: Tooling Ongoing

• Designed a new door middle cap for enhanced aesthetics in the 500 Series (5 models). The caps are specifically engineered for use with glass doors, offering a modern look and providing customers with more design options to choose from. This project adds visual appeal and customization flexibility while maintaining compatibility with existing models.
