What you'll do

  • Manage and control injection moulding processes to achieve production, quality, cost, and delivery targets.
  • Set and optimize machine/process parameters such as temperature, injection speed, pressure, holding pressure, cooling time, screw speed, back pressure, and cycle time.
  • Conduct process troubleshooting and root-cause analysis for defects such as short moulding, flash, sink marks, warpage, burn marks, flow marks, weld lines, silver streaks, and dimensional variation.
  • Implement corrective and preventive actions (CAPA) to eliminate recurring process and quality issues.
  • Monitor process parameters and establish standardized moulding conditions to reduce process variation and improve process stability.
  • Drive productivity improvement initiatives through cycle-time reduction, machine utilization improvement, rejection reduction, and optimization of manpower and resources.
  • Monitor and achieve daily/monthly production targets while maintaining required quality standards.
  • Optimize processing conditions for engineering polymers including PC, PMMA, PBT, PA6, PA66, and PC+ABS.
  • Ensure proper material drying and handling to prevent moisture-related moulding defects.
  • Operate and monitor auxiliary equipment such as CFS/chiller systems, dehumidifiers, hot runners, temperature controllers, and material dryers.
  • Perform robot programming and optimization for automatic part handling, de-gating, stacking, and other automation applications.
  • Support EOAT (End-of-Arm Tooling) design, development, modification, and troubleshooting according to component and automation requirements.
  • Conduct mould trials, machine trials, and process validation for new moulds, materials, and products.
  • Analyze production and quality data to identify trends, losses, and opportunities for continuous improvement.
  • Maintain and improve process documentation, SOPs, work instructions, parameter sheets, and control plans.
  • Coordinate with Quality, Maintenance, Tool Room, Production Planning, and Engineering teams to resolve technical issues and maintain smooth production.
  • Ensure proper implementation of 5S, safety procedures, process discipline, and standard operating practices on the shop floor.
  • Monitor machine downtime, rejection, rework, cycle time, and material consumption and take appropriate improvement actions.
  • Train and guide operators and technicians on machine operation, process parameters, defect identification, and troubleshooting methods.
  • Support new product development, process improvement, and productivity enhancement projects.
  • Maintain effective communication and positive working relationships between employees, supervisors, management, and cross-functional teams.
  • Prepare and maintain relevant production, process, rejection, downtime, and improvement reports for management review.
