Job Summary Electrical and Mechanical technician in chemical manufacturing facility. Position will troubleshoot, repair, and maintain machinery and mechanical/electrical equipment such as motors, conveyor systems, pneumatic and hydraulic systems, production machines, pumps, material handling equipment, blending/mixing systems, etc.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Diagnosing, repairing and testing industrial equipment including power service, motor starters, high/low voltage electrical systems PLC's controls, HMI's Networks (EtherNet/IP) and electrical field devices (photo eyes, proxes, encoders, limit switches etc.) Utilize standard electrical test equipment to perform equipment test using established procedures and write, update and clarify test procedures. Help train others to conduct these tests properly. Performing preventive maintenance and general maintenance as required on both production equipment and facilities equipment. Complete assigned work orders and document all tests. Troubleshoot and identify root cause and make recommend improvements on a continuous basis with cross functional teams.

KNOWLEDGE, SKILLS & ABILITIES

Follow all safety, health, and environmental procedures and protocols including Lock-Tag-Verify, elevated work and fall protection, confined space, forklift operation, and hot-work standards. Perform preventive and corrective maintenance on mechanical, electrical, and hydraulic systems as prescribed by OEM documentation and internal maintenance programs. Safely and quickly recover servos, encoders, safety circuits, filling equipment, cappers, labelers, case packers and palletizers. Troubleshoot and repair electrical systems including motors, relays, contactors, limit switches, photo eyes, sensors, and control circuits operating at 24 V

DC, 120 V AC, 240 V

AC, and 480 V 3-phase. Diagnose, configure, parametrize, and troubleshoot variable-frequency drives (VFDs) and interface with PLCs (Allen-Bradley /Rockwell preferred) for basic logic adjustments and fault tracing. Inspect, rebuild, and align mechanical assemblies such as pumps, conveyors, gearboxes, and drive systems to maintain design tolerances. Troubleshoot and service hydraulic and pneumatic circuits including valves, regulators, cylinders, and proportional controls. Perform basic welding, cutting, and fabrication in support of mechanical repairs or equipment modifications. Utilize precision measurement tools, alignment lasers, and test instruments to ensure equipment reliability and adherence to OEM standards. Maintain accurate maintenance records, communicate irregularities, and coordinate resolution of abnormalities with the planning and production departments. Support continuous improvement initiatives and assist in the refinement of preventive maintenance programs through analysis of performance data. Must have strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills. High-speed filling/packaging experience preferred. Identify root causes and implement repairs that prevent repeat equipment failures. Find electrical faults, understand machine sequence, restore production safely and stop failures from returning.
