Tool Engineer/ Manager

Responsibilities:

• Design and develop new injection moulds to produce plastic components that meet product specifications - Precision tolerance group.
• Carry out Simulation studies and 3D data studies on part design and mould design to ensure part mouldability.
• Participate in DFM discussions and DFMEA meetings as needed to ensure that the tools quoted are feasible and any potential issues identified early on and mitigated before tooling fabrication.
• Propose special processing measures and tooling design measures to achieve precision tolerance group.
• Collaborate/feedback with product design engineers, manufacturing, NPD and QA team to ensure manufacturability of new designs and enhance existing products.
• Oversee the tooling process from concept through production, including resin and tooling material selection, prototype development, testing, and final production rollout.
• Project Manage the tooling schedules/execution.
• Lead and guide junior engineer to prepare technical documentation, including design specifications, DFM studies, mould flow studies, testing protocols, and process workflow.
• Support Tooling, Moulding and NPD departments by trouble shooting during trials and also PPAP/PSW/FAI & 8D submissions.
• Analyse and improve injection moulding processes with emphasis on mould longevity and consistent parts moulded using various methodologies such as Six Sigma, Design of Experiments (DOE) or Lean Manufacturing.
• Conduct mould flow simulations and other DOE as needed to investigate defects and productivity issues that may be related to poor quality, defects, and increasing mould life.
• Review appearance & dimensional report and analyse the NG (Not Good) root cause or participate in 8D caused by tooling/ process parameter

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s in Manufacturing Engineering, Engineering Technology in Precision Engineering, or related field.
• Expertise in Injection Moulding Tooling with 3 to 10 years of experience.
• Design for Manufacturing (DFM).
• Production part approval process (PPAP).
• ISO 9001
• Plastic Mouldflow or Moldex and flow simulations/CFD
• SolidWorks, Catia or equivalent, able to review design using above software and carry out analysis on parts and tools.
• Understanding of polymer science and properties of different plastics
• Lean Manufacturing or Six Sigma.
• Working knowledge of problem-solving methods such as 5 Why, Ishikawa, 4M, etc.
