Ensure all instructions and documentation are saved electronically in the correct location.
Die Build/Tryout/Repair: Use stock lists generated by the die design team to ensure all die components are present, and if they are not, notify Manager or a lead Die Technician. Visually compare die components with CAD data to ensure accuracy, including heat treating process (if necessary). Notify Manager or lead Die Technician of any heat treating and altering of any inaccurate die components. Drill, set, and attach the necessary parallels. Assemble, set, and dowel necessary die component details, drilling and mounting the blocks in the proper locations, ensuring trim steels, punches, and embosses are properly placed and meet tolerances.
Assemble all remaining die component details from stock lists and notify Manager or lead Die Technician to verify that the timing is correct. Load dies with die springs and nitrogen cylinders. Perform die tryouts, including setting dies, clamping die bolsters, loading coils, and feeding coil stock. Ensure dies are built accurately (t-slots, cone locators), and shut heights and feed heights are correct. Create smart pac cams for feed rate, sprayer timing, sensor timing, shut height, and overloads. Alter servo transfer systems to set fingers or fine blanking presses, as needed.
Notify a lead Die Technician of any component changes, including such items as ejector pins, screws, dowels, and stripper pads. Operate a variety of machine tools to spot, grind, and finish hardened mill blocks to verify specific dimensions, as well as build, assemble, install and adjust fingers in presses per design or instruction. Perform the duties needed to prepare to install sensors into dies and fingers, such as verify replacement is needed, retrieving and reviewing designs and diagrams to determine optimal placement and accessibility, and organizing and labeling wires, ensuring proper channels lead to sensors.
Identify, select, install and replace sensors, guarding and valves based on function, application, and information from diagrams. Ensure that sensors, wires, boxes on rails, valves, cylinders, and hoses are protected. Document items needed for installation, including sensor and pin location and work performed, via pictures, EAM and sensor installation sheets. Wire, verify, and adjust sensors, valves, and cams (using tools such as Smart Pac and sensor cart) for proper clearances and timing to ensure optimal performance (including die clearance and timing).
Install, plumb, and secure sprayers and sprayer components in dies properly, as well as chutes, keeping clear of all moving parts (fingers, pads, incoming material, etc. ). Work with press technicians and process engineers to verify that newly built dies are built accurately (t-slots, cone locators, trim steels, punches, and embosses are properly placed and meet tolerances), that shut heights and feed heights are correct, and that the dies are timed out properly. Notify designer of any component changes, including such items as ejector pins, screws, dowels, and stripper pads.
Perform the tasks needed to repair dies, including clean components, change out cracked or damaged tooling, sharpen and shim, weld, grind, cut hardened components, inspect and sharpen trims, punch, and die steels, polish forms, prep backup and changeover tooling before it goes to the crib, and check parts on the fixture, and spot the detail back into a part or model of what the block shape should be. As necessary, program transfer systems to optimally transfer parts from station to station. Build, assemble, install and adjust fingers on die horses and in presses. Build and repair fabricated components using the MIG welder.
Troubleshooting: Troubleshoot automatic and hand-feed tooling and set-ups in-press. Use data (EAM, operator observation, visual inspection, measurement, etc. ) to problem solve needed die changes. Use Smartpac and press controls modifications to ensure presses operate optimally. Validate process parameters and notify the proper operations group to enter system deviations when applicable. Alter or adjust die components to ensure die operations the produces optimal parts. Combine problem solving methods with data (EAM if applicable), information from technicians/operators, information from part strip, elongated pilot holes, mismatched cuts, and burrs) to determine the specific changes needed for each die.
Continuous Improvement/Lean Principles: Apply continuous improvement concepts to dies and the changeover process via preventive maintenance and corrective actions, making adjustments to better the quality of the part and life of the tool, cost savings, fixing overlooked areas (such as stone the die sets, clean the dies, remake worn steels and die components), simplify the dies, and identify potential cost savings for pitch and width reductions, and ensure back up tooling is correct and present.
Identify and attempt to eliminate areas of waste for better efficiency and overall production needs. Anticipate die and operation problems and work to eliminate them before they happen. Participate in, and support lean initiatives such as continuous improvement events and problem solving events, identifying and eliminating all types of waste Suggest and implement ideas to increase personal and departmental efficiency. Communicate potential cost savings to other Technicians and Manager. Participate in 8D and 5-Why problem solving teams, Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) events, die improvement reviews, and die reviews.
