Hymson USA Inc.
Hymson is the company who lead me into automation industry. I learnt much of hands-on skills from the company. For a new-grad employee, Hymson USA provided us two rounds of training: factory based technique and management training, and an on-site delivery practice. Unfortunately, because of One Big Beauty Bill Act, most of clients which have signed contracts halted their orders. As a result, the headquarter laid off all engineers hired in the United States, including me, even the company had spent millions of dollars on these employees' training in the past two years.
I worked in Hymson China in this period. This is a factory-based training for new-grad employees hired in the United States. During this period, I practiced my hands-on skills in mechanical industry. For example, for a hole on a steel panel. it's just a round with diameter and some tolerance sign. While in practice, proficiency of operator, vibration of the driller base, even type of drill head would affect the performance of tolerance. Though I have learnt tolerance in classrooms, hands-on experience is still critical to affect my future design.
In the five month training, I took part in the full cycle to build an automatic production line from metal panels, wires, motors, cylinders. To be a future project manager, understanding techniques are very important. With hands-on experience, a workable deliver schedule can be worked out, instead of following standard work hours.
The challenge of this position includes:
As the original plan, the company wants me and other new hired US employees to complete the general assembly period at Jiangmen factory. But due to the 5-month rule for US F-1 visa holders, I had to go back to the United States before April, 2024.
