Key Responsibilities
Automation & Technical
- Monitor, troubleshoot, and maintain all PLC-controlled processes on the automatic plating line (Siemens, Mitsubishi, or equivalent).
- Diagnose and resolve faults in variable-speed drives (VFD/Inverters) for conveyor, hoist, and pump motors.
- Maintain, calibrate, and replace industrial sensors — proximity, temperature, level, flow, and encoder types.
- Operate and manage SCADA/HMI interfaces; update PLC programs and parameters as required.
- Coordinate with equipment vendors and system integrators for upgrades, spare parts, and technical support
Maintenance
- Develop and execute Preventive Maintenance (PM) plans for all automated equipment on the plating line.
- Conduct Root Cause Analysis (RCA) for recurring breakdowns and implement corrective actions.
- Manage spare parts inventory and ensure critical components are always available.
- Prepare maintenance reports, downtime analysis, and KPI dashboards for management review.
Technical skill requirements
- PLC programming & troubleshooting — Siemens TIA Portal / STEP 7, Mitsubishi GX Works, or equivalent.
- AC/DC Variable Frequency Drives — Siemens, Yaskawa, Mitsubishi, ABB, or equivalent brands.
- Industrial sensor types: proximity, photoelectric, temperature, level, and flow sensors.
- HMI / SCADA operation and basic configuration (Weintek, Siemens, Proface, or similar).
- Motor control circuits — DOL, Star-Delta, and VFD-driven systems.
- DC Rectifier systems used in electroplating processes is a strong advantage.
- Basic pneumatic/hydraulic knowledge for plating conveyors and hoist systems.
