Instrumentation & Control Engineer - Copper Clad Laminates

ROLE OVERVIEW

The Instrumentation & Control Engineer will be responsible for the installation, calibration, maintenance, and optimisation of all measurement and control instruments across the CCL plant. This role is critical to maintaining precise temperature profiles, pressure cycles, and resin curing parameters that directly impact laminate quality.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Instrumentation Maintenance & Calibration

- Maintain, calibrate, and troubleshoot all field instruments: temperature sensors (RTD, thermocouples), pressure transmitters, flow meters, level sensors, and analytical instruments

- Ensure all instruments are within calibrated range and traceable to national/international standards

- Manage instrument inventory, spare parts, and calibration records

Process Control - CCL Specific

- Monitor and optimise temperature profiles in press cycles (ramp, cure hold, cool-down phases)

- Control and fine-tune pressure cycles during multi-daylight press lamination

- Maintain resin curing parameter records and ensure process consistency across batches

- Oversee drying oven temperature zones in the treater / impregnation line

Control System Support

- Support PLC and DCS/SCADA system for process variable monitoring and alarming

- Interface with electrical and automation teams for integrated control loop performance

- Participate in new project commissioning: instrument selection, hook-up, loop testing, and start-up

Documentation & Compliance

- Maintain as-built instrument index, loop diagrams, and calibration certificates

- Support internal and external audits with accurate instrumentation records

CANDIDATE PROFILE

Experience

- 4-10 years in instrumentation and process control in a manufacturing environment

- Ideal background: continuous process industries - chemicals, laminates, textiles, plastics, or glass

- Experience controlling temperature-critical process equipment (ovens, presses, reactors, boilers)

Technical Skills

- Proficiency with HART, FOUNDATION Fieldbus, or Profibus communication protocols

- Hands-on calibration of pressure, temperature, flow, and analytical instruments

- Familiarity with DCS systems (Honeywell, ABB, Yokogawa) or advanced PLC-based control

- Working knowledge of control loop tuning (PID)

Education

- Diploma / . / in Instrumentation Engineering, Electronics & Instrumentation, or Control Engineering

Critical Requirement: Preferred: Candidates from laminates, textiles, or chemical process industries who understand temperature-sensitive curing environments.
