Visual Inspection and Packaging Specialist — Injection Molding

Can You Spot the Flaw Others Miss?

If you answered yes, you might be the Visual Inspection and Packaging Specialist we’re looking for. Picture this: a finished lot is about to ship. You verify dimensions, catch a subtle color variance, adjust packaging, scan inventory, and keep a customer’s line running on time. That’s impact.

Role Mission

Ensure plastic parts from injection molding and secondary assembly leave our facility exactly as the customer specified—no surprises.

How You’ll Succeed

1. Know the standard: Review specs, work instructions, and packaging details before you ever press “start.” Ask questions when anything is unclear.
2. Finish with finesse: Trim runners and complete simple secondary ops like basic welds or insert placement.
3. Inspect with intent: Perform visual checks and use measuring equipment to validate conformance.
4. Move product accurately: Swap full containers, label correctly, and use an RF scan gun to disposition parts into inventory.
5. Package to perfection: Count, weigh, and sort parts with sample or counter scales; follow customer packaging standards precisely.
6. Back up quality: Assist with online and offline quality sorts.
7. Run the system: Use IQMS to label/package parts, prep upcoming jobs, enter rejects, confirm counts, locate raw materials, sub‑components, and packaging, account for finished goods, and transact inventory movements.
8. Document and close: Record rejects, complete end‑of‑run verification, and log shift counts. Set up and tear down cells per standard work.
9. Own your space: Keep the area clean and organized. Call out mold, machine, or safety issues immediately. Be present and punctual. Help where needed.
