Key Responsibilities
1. Assembly and Fitting
Blueprint Reading: Interpret technical drawings and specifications to determine dimensions and assembly sequences.
Metal Shaping: Cut and shape metal components using processes like sawing, chipping, filing, grinding, and drilling.
Precision Fitting: File and finish parts to ensure they fit together perfectly, often using a Bench Vice to secure the work.
Fastening: Use various fastening methods including nuts and bolts, rivets, studs, and screws to create a complete unit.
2. Maintenance and Repair
Preventive Maintenance: Conduct regular checks on industrial machinery to ensure smooth operation and minimize downtime.
Fault Finding: Dismantle defective machines to identify worn-out or broken parts and replace them with new or repaired components.
Overhauling: Perform complete dismantling and reassembly of machines (like lathes or drills) for deep cleaning and lubrication.
3. Measurement and Quality Control
Precision Measurement: Use instruments like Vernier Callipers, Micrometers, and Dial Indicators to check that finished parts meet strict dimensional requirements.
Marking: Use marking tools (scribes, height gauges, and punch marks) to indicate guide lines for cutting or drilling.
4. Safety and Housekeeping
Safety Protocols: Adhere to all industrial safety standards, including the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) like safety shoes, goggles, and gloves.
5S Implementation: Maintain a clean and organized workspace (5S) to ensure efficiency and prevent workplace accidents.
Technical Tools & Machinery
Hand Tools: Spanners, pliers, hammers, chisels, files (flat, round, half-round), and hacksaws.
Power Tools: Portable grinders, drilling machines, and pneumatic/hydraulic fastening tools.
Machinery: Practical knowledge of operating Lathe machines, Bench Grinders, and Pillar Drilling machines.
