Perfect Tempered & Processed Glass
Requirements
Education
- Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Electrical & Electronic Engineering
- BSc in Mechanical / Electrical / Electronic Engineering.
- Educational qualifications can be relaxed for candidates with long-standing, exceptional hands-on experience in operating glass tempering furnaces.
Experience
- 2 to 5 years
- The applicants should have experience in the following business area(s): Glass & Ceramics Manufacturing
Additional Requirements
Experience Requirements:
- 2 to 5 years of hands-on experience working directly on a factory floor.
- Direct experience as a primary or assistant furnace operator in a Glass Tempering plant is highly mandatory. Candidates familiar with brands like North Glass, Land glass, Glaston/Tamglass, etc., will get extra priority.
Additional Requirements:
- Deep understanding of heating cycles, cooling pressures, and glass properties.
- Alertness, quick decision-making capability, and troubleshooting skills to handle emergencies (like glass breakage inside the furnace).
- Physical fitness and willingness to work in rotating shifts (Day/Night) as per production demands.
Responsibilities & Context
- Operate and monitor the automated Glass Tempering Furnace (PLC/Computer Control Panel) according to standard operating procedures.
- Set and adjust precise heating time, chamber temperature curves, and air quenching/cooling pressures based on glass thickness (3.5 mm to 19mm) and type (Clear, Low-E, Reflective, Tinted).
- Inspect incoming raw glass sheets for correct dimensions, proper edge polishing, and washing quality before loading them onto the furnace bed.
- Continuously monitor the furnace bed, rollers, and heating elements to ensure smooth movement and prevent glass jamming or breakage inside the heating chamber.
- Conduct post-tempering quality checks on completed glass sheets to detect visual or structural defects, such as optical distortion, roller waves, surface scratches, or bow/warp.
- Perform regular break tests (fragmentation tests) according to safety glass standards to ensure the tempered glass meets quality compliance.
- Conduct daily basic maintenance of the furnace, including cleaning the rollers, checking air blowers, and reporting any mechanical or electrical issues immediately to the Production Manager.
- Maintain strict adherence to safety protocols, including wearing proper cut-resistant PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) while loading and unloading heavy glass sheets.
