Picture yourself as the go-to expert who keeps critical industrial equipment running—diagnosing issues, installing systems, and welding repairs that keep production online.
Imagine This Scenario
A conveyor stalls while a crusher vibrates out of spec. You arrive, assess root causes, rig and set replacement components, weld a reinforcement, and return the line to full speed. That’s the impact you’ll make here—every day.
What You’ll Do
Dismantle, assemble, install, and fabricate equipment: mills, pulverizers, conveyors, crushers, and rotating machinery (belts, chains, fan housings, blowers, motors).
Diagnose faults and execute repairs on mills, pulverizers, crushers, and conveyors.
Safely rig, move, and set heavy, bulky units.
Determine whether removed parts/equipment should be salvaged or scrapped.
Repair, fabricate, and improve metal components using welding and cutting processes.
Work from blueprints, verbal directives, or your own innovative concepts to get the job done.
Support other crafts and apply your skills wherever needed in the plant.
