MISSION
To assemble complex segmented patterns in a dimensionally controlled fixture in preparation for the gating process.
PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTABILITIES
1. Preparation
Objective: to inspect pattern components and dimensional fixture prior to loading.
Typical Activities:
* A. Pre-inspects pattern and dimensional fixture prior to start of assembly.
* B. Reads and follows technique card assembly instructions, which describe numerous unique assembly steps of a complex nature; plans the methods for completing a given assignment and selects among alternative assembly methods.
2. Assembly
Objective: to accurately assemble complex multi-component patterns to maintain dimensional integrity.
Typical Activities:
* A. Assembles complex multi-component patterns by means of torch, hot pencils, and a variety of hand tools.
* B. Assembles complex patterns using full-time dimensional fixturing to maintain dimensional control and stability.
* C. Manipulates fixture/pattern components to remove configuration discrepancies and verify dimensional integrity.
* D. Possibly develops code sheets for engineering-requested modifications or deviations to standard assemblies.
* E. Inspects assemblies during and after the assembly process to detect defects and ensure quality.
ENTRY QUALIFICATIONS
* Ability to apply pattern assembly techniques, methods, materials, fixturing and construction.
* Experience assembling wax patterns and/or pattern finishing is preferred or the equivalent experience.
* Ability to communicate and work effectively with others.
* Ability to work in a team environment and promote team development.
* Ability to read and follow complex written instructions.
* Ability to lift and/or maneuver objects weighing thirty to fifty pounds and occasionally up to one hundred twenty five pounds with assistance.
* Ability to work in conditions which may include exposure to noise, fumes, crowding, awkward physical positions, abrasions, cuts, and chemicals.
