Technical understand of different surface material (e.g. foil with TPO, PVC, PU, foam foils, leather) and trim technologies, develop surface material with the necessary glueing technology, including 2K dispersion glue application for manual/auto spray(one side or two sides), roller coating and hotmelt glue application for spray and roller coating. Develop surface treatment process and glueing process from theoretical study to practical verification according to SEP guideline.
Creation and further development of process documentation (e.g. process datasheet, process data acquisition, verification plan), continues data recording during the development phase. Responsibility in process development for glueing as main focus, press lamination and trim technology with main tasks (e.g. guide the component design for design to process, guide the foil and trim pattern development, feasibility studies, build prototype samples, build concept samples, process verification, support tooling development with process input, definition of process parameters, evaluation of ECR, participation on expert level for DFMEA and PFMEA, etc.). Technical lead and coordination of glueing and press lamination within projects. Develop product and process specifications as test and verification procedures (e.g. give technical input for requirement manuals, create test and verification plans, support and guide trial runs, etc.). Suggest product or process changes in order to increase system performance and/or to better implement customer wishes. Develop process standards and equipment, in order to achieve the desired results, and interpret the results (e.g. using statistical analysis and methods, etc.). Make process changes, documentation of results and deviations. Create technical verification to use for changes in process development and equipment, in order to support new methods and processes. Develop and approve lamination part specifications, support drawing creation. Knowledge and know how transfer within the department, in between region and headquarter. Conduct studies and inspections task in process tryout activities.
