Key Responsibilities
* Material Preparation & Interpretation:
o Read and interpret complex engineering drawings, including General Arrangement (GA), detail, and isometric drawings.
o Mark out materials for cutting and shaping using templates, scribers, or CNC programming.
o Select appropriate materials (e.g., carbon steel S355, stainless steel 316L, aluminium).
* Fabrication & Forming:
o Operate heavy machinery to cut and shape metal:
o Thermal Cutting: Plasma, oxy-fuel, and laser cutters.
o Mechanical Cutting: Guillotines, band saws.
o Forming: Press brakes, rollers, and plate bending machines to form plates into cylinders, cones, etc.
o Perform thermal straightening to correct distortions in metal.
* Assembly & Fitting:
o Assemble components using jigs, fixtures, and tack welds to ensure precise alignment before final welding.
o Fit and align large sections and plate work to tight tolerances (often within ±2 mm).
o Use measuring equipment (verniers, levels, laser alignment tools) to check accuracy.
