Currently we are Looking out Professionals for Our Prestigious Client

Client Name: - JD Jones & Co (P) Ltd

Role Title: -Techno-Production Engineer
Location: -Kolkata, WB
Products:- PTFE Compression Moulding (Automatic & Manual)

About Client: -

JD Jones & Co (P) Ltd is a century-old manufacturing company (est. 1923) based in West Bengal, specialising in fluid sealing products—gland packing, gaskets, PTFE components, and specialty lubricants—under the PACMAAN and ROLGARD brands. We are ISO 9001:2015 certified with a growing global export footprint.

We are in the midst of a significant modernisation drive: investing in CNC machinery, industrial automation, digital tools, and AI-enabled workflows. We need people who don’t just operate machines—we need thinkers who bridge the gap between production capability and market opportunity, and who can build world-class PTFE manufacturing from the ground up.

Production & Process Management

•         Manage day-to-day production of PTFE compression-moulded components: rods, sheets, billets, rings, and custom profiles.

•         Set up, control, and optimise parameters for both automatic and manual compression moulding presses, sintering ovens, and post-processing operations.

•         Monitor and control cycle times, moulding pressures, sintering temperatures, and dimensional outcomes to ensure consistent output.

•         Ensure adherence to production schedules, output targets, and yield requirements.

Process Optimisation & Continuous Improvement

•         Identify and implement improvements to reduce cycle time, scrap, and rework across both automatic and manual lines.

•         Provide tooling optimisation inputs, mould design feedback, and machining allowance standardisation.

•         Implement best practices for material handling, preforming, sintering, and cooling.

•         Drive capacity planning and productivity improvement initiatives.

Product–Application Mapping & Go-to-Market Support

•         Build and maintain a product–application knowledge base: map PTFE product variants (grades, fillers, dimensions) to customer applications, end-use industries, and performance requirements.

•         Provide technical inputs to Sales on product feasibility, material selection, and application suitability for customer enquiries.

•         Support go-to-market efforts by translating production capability into commercially relevant product specifications and datasheets.

•         Participate in customer technical discussions, audits, and new product introduction trials.

Quality, Testing Standards & Documentation

•         Ensure products meet drawing specifications, dimensional tolerances, and material standards.

•         Maintain awareness of and compliance with updated testing standards applicable to PTFE products (ASTM, IS, EN, DIN) as per current industry norms.

•         Ensure test reports, material certifications, and quality documentation align with customer and export market expectations.

•         Coordinate with Quality teams on inspections, non-conformances, root cause analysis, and corrective actions.

•         Maintain and improve process documentation, work instructions, and control plans.

•         Support internal audits and customer quality requirements.

Digital & AI-Enabled Working

•         Use AI tools for process analysis, documentation drafting, root cause brainstorming, and productivity tracking.

•         Leverage Excel, ERP, and digital dashboards for production reporting and analysis.

•         Continuously upgrade skills in digital manufacturing and AI-based productivity tools.

Technical Qualifications (Must-Have)

•         5–8 years of hands-on experience in PTFE compression moulding or fluoropolymer manufacturing.

•         Demonstrated experience with both automatic and manual compression moulding presses.

•         Strong understanding of PTFE materials, fillers (glass, carbon, bronze, graphite, MoS2), sintering cycles, machining allowances, and common defect mechanisms (cracking, voids, dimensional drift).

•         Working knowledge of moulding presses, sintering ovens, and basic machining processes for PTFE.

•         Ability to read and interpret engineering drawings, process specifications, and quality standards.

Product & Market Knowledge (Highly Valued)

•         Understanding of PTFE product applications across industries: pumps, valves, chemical processing, oil & gas, pharma, food processing, electrical insulation.

•         Ability to connect product specifications (grades, fillers, dimensions) to customer requirements and end-use performance needs.

•         Awareness of competitive PTFE product landscape and industry-standard offerings.

Added Benefit

•         Knowledge of updated testing standards as per industry for PTFE products—ASTM, IS, EN, DIN, and relevant ISO test methods. Familiarity with how these standards apply to product qualification, customer approvals, and export documentation.

Education

•         Diploma or Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Polymer, Chemical Engineering, or equivalent technical background.
