Molding Engineer - Fujikura Conec (THAILAND) LTD.

1. Develop and validate plastic injection molding processes for new products, including mold trials, process qualification, and mass production readiness.

2. Define and execute testing plans for new models, analyze trial results, and approve process conditions for production.

3. Optimize injection molding parameters (Injection Speed, Holding Pressure, Cooling Time, Mold Temperature, Barrel Temperature, etc.) to improve productivity and product quality.

4. Analyze molding defects (Flash, Short Shot, Sink Mark, Burn Mark, Warpage, Weld Line, Silver Streak, etc.) and implement effective corrective and preventive actions.

5. Improve production efficiency through Cycle Time Reduction, Yield Improvement, OEE Improvement, Scrap Reduction, and Cost Reduction initiatives.

6. Plan and coordinate mold maintenance, preventive maintenance (PM), mold repair, and mold modifications to ensure stable production.

7. Work closely with Tooling, Maintenance, QA, Production, and Engineering teams to resolve molding and process-related issues.

8. Develop and maintain Work Instructions (WI), Standard Operating Procedures (SOP), Process Standards, and Process Parameters.

9. Evaluate and introduce new molding technologies, engineering materials, and automation solutions to improve manufacturing performance.

10. Support Engineering Change (ECN/ECR), new product introduction (NPI), and continuous improvement activities.
