What are the responsibilities and job description for the Industrial Stamping Press Maintenance Technician position at BAE Manufacturing Industries?
Step onto our second shift and become the go-to expert who keeps high-tonnage metal stamping operations running. You’ll split your time between two nearby plants, so dependable self-transportation is essential. This position is for an experienced manufacturing press and machine repair professional—someone who has already repaired metal stamping presses, weld cells, compressors, and similar production equipment.
A Day in the LifeYou arrive, review the maintenance queue, and tackle a coil-fed press that’s showing a hydraulic pressure fluctuation. You listen for irregularities, isolate the fault, and tear down the assembly to reach a worn seal. After measuring, replacing, and aligning components, you re-pipe a section of hydraulic line, bring the press back online, and run test parts to confirm quality. Later, you fine-tune an automated lubrication circuit, then shift to the other facility to realign a clutch and spindle on a Minster press. Before clocking out, you tweak a computer-controlled motion routine so the Aida press cycles smoothly.
What You’ll Work On- Repairing and maintaining mechanical and hydraulic systems on production equipment, including coil-fed metal stamping presses, metal fabrication machine tools, material handling gear, and automated lubrication systems.
- Diagnosing malfunctions by observing, listening, and inspecting equipment; dismantling machinery to access problem areas.
- Measuring parts to verify wear or misalignment; removing and replacing worn components in drive and hydraulic systems.
- Realigning and adjusting assemblies such as spindles and clutches for optimal performance.
- Locating damaged pneumatic and hydraulic piping; cutting, threading, and installing new lines.
- Starting and testing machines after repair to validate operation and quality.
- Fabricating or restoring parts using a lathe, drill press, and grinder.
- Modifying computer-controlled motion in automation to resolve cycle or positioning issues.
Note: Other duties may be assigned as needed.
Shift & Mobility- Second shift assignment.
- Ability to reliably travel between and support two plant locations.
- Proven background in manufacturing press and machinery repair—specifically with metal stamping presses, weld cells, and compressors.
- Strong equipment, mechanical, and general troubleshooting abilities.
- Experience with metal stamping and forming, including progressive die processes.
- Familiarity with Minster and Aida stamping presses.
- Competitive Wages
- Health Insurance
- Dental Insurance
