Job Description Job Description Description: We are actively
seeking a skilled and detail-oriented Tool and Die Maker with
expertise in deep drawn metal stamping to join our dynamic
manufacturing team. This role is critical to our operations, as you
will be responsible for the design, fabrication, and maintenance of
precision tools and dies utilized in the production of complex
metal components. Your work will directly impact product quality
and manufacturing efficiency. Requirements: Key Responsibilities: ·
Utilize advanced CAD software to design and create tooling and dies
tailored specifically for deep drawing applications, ensuring they
meet stringent specifications and production requirements. You will
fabricate components using various machining techniques, including
milling, grinding, and electrical discharge machining (EDM). ·
Skillfully prepare and set up automated and manual stamping presses
for production runs. This includes aligning and securing dies,
adjusting settings for material thickness and type, and ensuring
consistent operation to achieve optimal quality and production
rates. · Implement and adhere to rigorous quality control
procedures. Conduct regular inspections and assessments of both
tools and the metal parts produced, utilizing precision measurement
tools (such as calipers, micrometers, and gauges) to ensure
compliance with tolerances and specifications. Document any
deviations and collaborate with quality engineers to rectify
issues. · Execute routine maintenance and repair work on tools,
dies, stamping machines, and ancillary equipment to enhance their
lifespan and efficiency. Troubleshoot mechanical and operational
issues as they arise, using diagnostic tools and your extensive
knowledge of hydraulic and pneumatic systems. · Work closely with
product design engineers to discuss tooling design modifications
and improvements based on production experiences. Participate in
cross-functional team meetings to address production challenges,
ensuring that tools and processes align with evolving project
requirements. · Maintain comprehensive and precise documentation of
tooling specifications, maintenance schedules, and production logs.
This will include creating detailed reports on tooling performance,
material usage, and production yield metrics, ensuring compliance
with industry standards and internal procedures. · Actively
participate in continuous improvement projects, leveraging Lean
Manufacturing principles to propose and implement enhancements to
tooling designs and production processes. This may involve
analyzing production data to identify trends and areas for
improvement. Qualifications: · High school diploma or equivalent;
technical degree or certification in tool and die making,
machining, or a related field is preferred. · A minimum of 5 years
of proven experience as a Tool and Die Maker, specifically within
deep drawn metal stamping operations, with a solid track record of
successful project completion. · Advanced proficiency in reading
and interpreting complex blueprints, technical drawings, and
schematics, along with strong mathematical skills for accurate
measurements and calculations. · Thorough understanding of
machining processes, materials (including stainless steel,
aluminum, and composite materials), and advanced heat treatments
relevant to tool manufacturing. · Familiarity with precision
measurement tools and techniques, along with experience using CNC
machinery and programming for tool production. · Excellent
analytical and problem-solving skills, with a keen attention to
detail and the ability to identify root causes of issues in tooling
and production. · Proven capability to work independently, exercise
initiative, and collaborate effectively as part of a cohesive team
in a fast-paced, high-volume manufacturing environment. Working
Conditions: This position involves exposure to metalworking
machinery, raw materials, and sometimes hazardous elements,
necessitating strict adherence to safety protocols and regulations.
The role may require prolonged periods of standing and the ability
to lift and move heavy objects, as well as flexibility to work
overtime or shift hours as production demands dictate. Benefits: ·
Competitive salary based on experience and qualifications, with
opportunities for overtime pay. · Comprehensive health benefits
package, including medical, dental, and vision coverage. ·
Retirement savings plan with employer match to help secure your
financial future. · Access to ongoing professional development and
training opportunities to enhance your skills and career growth in
the industry. If you are a skilled Tool and Die Maker with a
passion for precision engineering and a desire to contribute
meaningfully to a forward-thinking manufacturing environment, we
encourage you to apply. Join us in producing high-quality metal
components that drive innovation and excellence in our industry!
