Paid Mechanical Engineering Position Near BWI

Are you still looking for a co-op or internship position for the Fall?

Kop-Flex currently has paid full-time or part-time co-op positions for
Mechanical Engineering students.  Kop-Flex is located south of Baltimore
near BWI airport, and offers students a great opportunity to gain
experience in mechanical design and manufacturing.

Kop-Flex Inc., part of a business unit of Emerson Electric Co., is a
manufacturer of flexible couplings for power transmission applications.

Kop-Flex hires many co-op students for full-time positions after
graduation.

Duties will include: assisting Product Engineers in the design of
mechanical couplings and u-joints used in industrial, power transmission
applications; performing rudimentary stress analysis using in-house
computer programs; calculating coupling mass elastic data; applying
engineering knowledge to modify coupling designs to meet customer
specifications; other computer-related duties as assigned. Co-ops will
also be expected to interface with our global engineering teams.

Co-op engineers are expected to possess a basic understanding of machine
design principles, as well as introductory engineering knowledge in the
areas of stress analysis, mechanics of materials, dynamics, and vibration
analysis.  They should also be familiar with the use of Microsoft Office
and have some familiarity and proficiency with CAD (preferably AutoCAD) as
well.

The student will learn basic manufacturing processes, develop the ability
to identify and create cost-effective designs, and become familiar with
material specifications and applications.  Also, the student will learn to
communicate with customers and associates, while assisting the company to
process day to day work.
