Hard Skills
AdvancedPrecision MachiningThe ability to operate machine tools such as lathes, mills, and grinders to repair tire mould components within extremely tight tolerances.
AdvancedTIG and Laser WeldingSpecialized welding techniques used to add material to worn or damaged mould surfaces without causing heat-induced distortion.
IntermediateBlueprint and CAD InterpretationReading and interpreting technical drawings and 3D models to understand the geometry and specifications of tire patterns.
IntermediateMetrology and Precision MeasurementThe use of micrometers, calipers, and coordinate measuring machines (CMM) to verify the dimensions of mould segments.
IntermediateSurface Texturing and PolishingApplying specific finishes or textures to the interior of moulds to ensure proper tire release and aesthetic quality.
ExpertTool and Die AssemblyThe process of disassembling, cleaning, and reassembling multi-piece tire moulds while maintaining alignment.
