Overview: Our client in the automotive sector is looking to employ a Millwright to conduct mechanical and electrical maintenance and repairs on plant and equipment in a safe and efficient manner.Minimum Requirements / Experience:Grade 12 with Mathematics and ScienceSection 13 red seal Millwright trade testN4 electro-mechanical certificate, Siemens PLC5 years' experience in heavy industry Key Performance Areas:Scheduled Maintenance ProcessReceive Maintenance Schedules, plan and execute before they expire.
Interpret instructions and plan maintenance and repair workInspect the tooling and determine spares and consumables requirementsGenerate Job Requisitions for scheduled maintenance work (type of repair or maintenance, spares, quantities, time, etc.
)Transport tools, equipment, and spares to the work siteIsolate equipment, perform lockouts, complete the LOTO register, and make the work area safeComplete the Contractors Permit to Work before contractors commencing work on site.Conduct Preventive Maintenance activitiesPerform changeovers in the production environmentCount stock for a Stock Take integrity check (check spares condition during the count)All Scheduled Maintenance shall be recorded (Opened and Closed) to the Maintenance Connection system IN TIME to aid in prolonging equipment life and prevent Unplanned Maintenance.Housekeeping: Keep the Workshop and work area clean and maintain or improve on 5S standards.Perform Plant start-ups.
Plan plant start-up well in advance of planned production starting time to ensure the plant is ready for production.
If unsure, ask.Track and record personal daily hours to ensure the KPA – Artisan Utilization of?
75% is achieved.Maintenance Process (Breakdown): Attend to machine breakdowns of a mechanical/electrical nature for all equipment under engineering functional control.Update the responsible person on the progress of repairsEscalate a problem/breakdown to the next level if it cannot be resolved successfullyAll Breakdowns shall be recorded (Opened and Closed) to the Maintenance Connection system to aid in determining the root cause and to calculate KPI and artisan utilization data accurately.Electrical Maintenance: Design and construct Single/Three Phase CircuitsDesign and Install Electrical WirewaysConstruct, commission, and do fault tracing on low voltage reticulation networks (220Vac, 110Vac, 24DC)Install or replace and commission electrical equipment (lighting systems; electrical cables and conductors; earth leakage unit in a low voltage circuit; metering units or measuring instruments; low and medium voltage transformers; batteries; electrical wire ways; direct current (DC) machines three-phase AC electrical circuits, machines, and control gear)Wire and commission three-phase electrical circuitsInspect and clean (electrical machines; enhanced safety apparatus; electrical motors)Test and inspect a three-phase industrial/commercial installationInspect and maintain electrical equipment (electrical distribution boards, panels, and enclosures; intrinsically safe apparatus; lighting systems; high mast lighting structures; batteries and battery rooms (UPS, Generator); low voltage switchgear; unit protection devices on transformers; AC or DC drive units; (DC) machines; electric power tools; three-phase AC machines and control gear; AC motor control gear)Replace electrical equipment (electrical cables; faulty components in a distribution board; three-phase electrical motor between 5,5 kW and 75 kW)Fault find and repair (Domestic appliances; single-phase alternating current (AC) systems; three-phase voltage electrical circuits)Disconnect and connect electric motorsHandle and care for electrical earthing gear and related equipmentJoint low-voltage cablesTroubleshoot on programmable logic controllersFabrication: Mechanically cut, drill, punch, and assemble fabrication materials using powered machineryCut materials using the oxy-fuel gas cutting process (manual cutting)Join metals using the resistance welding processWeld workpiece (oxy-acetylene welding, shielded metal arc welding, gas metal arc welding, gas tungsten arc welding)Remove metals using oxy-fuel and air-carbon arc gouging processesInstrumentation Maintenance: Construct Basic Electronic CircuitsInstall Instrument impulse linesMaintain instrumentation equipment (Flow; Level; Pressure; Temperature; Intrinsically safe apparatus)Carry out soldering and de-soldering proceduresMaintenance Process (Post Maintenance): Test and commission machinery or equipment before handoverComplete the Planned Maintenance Schedule-Maintenance Connection (Work completed, work not completed, spares used, spares not available, time taken, observations, problems, etc.
)Identify any other work required (including additional spares) and communicate to the Planner/BuyerClean up after completion of the job and inform the responsible person that the maintenance has been completed to the required standardMaterial Handling: Sling loads.Operating cranes/hoistsOperating forkliftsProject Planning: Schedule project activities to facilitate effective project execution.Monitor, evaluate, and communicate project schedules.Project Management: Contribute to the management of project risk within own field of expertise.Supervise a project team of a technical project if and when requested.Assist within the project in the field of your expertise.Project Administration: Support project meetings and workshops when required to do soContinuous Improvement: Participate in continuous improvement drivesReporting: Complete Maintenance Time Sheets (nature of work, time spent to repair, and material/spares used)
