Hard Skills
AdvancedPrecision Mould PolishingThe ability to use manual and automated tools to refine glass forming mould surfaces to a specific finish, ensuring no surface imperfections affect the final glass product.
IntermediateTechnical Drawing InterpretationReading and interpreting engineering blueprints and schematics to understand mould dimensions and required tolerances.
IntermediateAbrasive Tool SelectionSelecting appropriate grit levels, stones, and diamond compounds based on the mould material and the required stage of polishing.
IntermediateMetrology Tool ProficiencyOperating precision measurement instruments such as micrometers, calipers, and profilometers to verify mould geometry.
AdvancedDefect IdentificationThe capacity to visually and tactilely detect microscopic cracks, pitting, or thermal fatigue on mould surfaces.
