Allow us to introduce ourselves…

The Weidmann Group of companies is active in some of the world’s most vital fields namely energy and medical. Our technology and our knowhow contribute crucial resources to a worldwide market, whether it be leading the global market in transformer electrical insulation, keeping the lights on for billions of consumers, or the delivery of a breakthrough drug through our advanced plastics technologies for medical and pharmaceutical applications.

The role…

We are seeking an experienced Manual Machinist to join our Maintenance team in Urbana. The primary focus of this position is using manual lathes, mills, and other machining equipment to manufacture, modify, and repair components that support the maintenance and reliability of our production equipment.

Unlike a traditional production machinist role, you'll work directly with our Maintenance team to troubleshoot equipment issues, create or repair replacement parts, and help minimize production downtime. This is a great opportunity for an experienced manual machinist who is interested in expanding their industrial maintenance knowledge, with the opportunity to develop additional mechanical and electrical skills.

Primary Focus: Manual Machining & Equipment Repair

How You’ll Make An Impact…

  • Operate manual lathes, mills, and related machining equipment to manufacture, modify, and repair shafts, bushings, housings, and other precision components needed to maintain production equipment.
  • Read and interpret blueprints, mechanical drawings, and specifications while using micrometers, calipers, gauges, and other precision measuring tools to ensure accuracy and quality.
  • Partner with Maintenance and Production to troubleshoot equipment issues, identify repair solutions, and support the repair and maintenance of pumps, gearboxes, motors, mechanical drives, and other industrial equipment.
  • Perform fabrication, fitting, assembly, and welding as needed while supporting preventive maintenance activities and safe, reliable equipment operation.
  • Expand your industrial maintenance capabilities through hands-on training and cross-training in mechanical and electrical maintenance, including areas such as hydraulics, pneumatics, power transmission systems, motor alignment, electrical troubleshooting, PLCs, and VFDs.

What Do You Bring…

  • Strong hands-on experience operating manual lathes and manual mills; experience machining, modifying, and repairing precision components is required.
  • Ability to read blueprints and mechanical drawings and confidently use precision measuring equipment, including micrometers, calipers, and gauges.
  • Previous experience in machining, tool room operations, industrial maintenance, fabrication, mechanical repair, or a related manufacturing environment.
  • Mechanical aptitude and an interest in expanding your skills into industrial equipment maintenance and troubleshooting; electrical, PLC/VFD, welding, hydraulics, pneumatics, and mechanical maintenance experience are a plus, but not required.
  • Ability to work collaboratively within a Maintenance team, safely use hand and power tools, lift up to 100 lbs., and work in a non-climate-controlled manufacturing environment.

What do we offer?

  • Signing bonus of $2,500 after 6 months of employment
  • Medical insurance, with an accompanying health savings account, vision and dental insurance, PTO starting your FIRST day
  • 401k plan with company match, Company paid basic life and AD&D insurance, STD and LTD
  • Employee assistance program
  • Employee referral program
  • Additional company programs include: Wellness, clothing allowance, computer loan, and tuition reimbursement
  • An award-winning atmosphere! Weidmann was named Best Employer of Champaign County
