Hard Skills
AdvancedHot Gas WeldingThe process of joining thermoplastic materials by heating the base material and a filler rod with a controlled stream of hot air or inert gas until they reach a molten state for fusion.
IntermediateThermoplastic IdentificationThe ability to distinguish between various types of plastics such as PP, PE, PVC, and PVDF to ensure compatible filler material selection.
IntermediateBlueprint and Technical Drawing InterpretationReading and understanding engineering specifications, joint designs, and dimensional requirements for plastic fabrication.
IntermediateEquipment Calibration and MaintenanceSetting and maintaining specific temperature and airflow parameters on welding torches and ensuring nozzles are clean and functional.
IntermediateWeld Quality InspectionPerforming visual and physical checks, such as spark testing or bend tests, to detect voids, discontinuities, or weak fusion in the weld bead.
FundamentalOccupational Safety ComplianceAdherence to safety protocols regarding high-temperature tools, fume extraction systems, and personal protective equipment (PPE).
