This role involves the operation and basic maintenance of a custom-built gantry-style concrete 3D printer which uses off-the-shelf components and a simple control system. The candidate is preferred to enjoy working with technology are comfortable with construction materials and have a mechanical and electrical aptitude.
Responsibilities:
Printer Operation:
- Load start and monitor printing jobs according to project specifications and safety procedures.
- Monitor the concrete material delivery system and mixing process to ensure consistent flow.
- Perform routine checks during printing to identify and resolve minor issues (e.g. nozzle clogs material flow inconsistencies).
Material Handling:
- Assist in preparing mixing and loading specialized concrete/mortar materials for the printer.
- Ensure the proper cleanup of material delivery hoses pumps and the print head after each job.
Basic Maintenance:
- Perform routine pre- and post-operation checks on the printers mechanical components (gantry movement motors guide rails etc.).
- Assist in minor troubleshooting and repair of the simple control system and mechanical components under supervision.
- Keep the printer and surrounding work area clean and organized.
Safety & Reporting:
- Adhere to all job site safety standards and operate the equipment responsibly.
- Accurately log print jobs material usage and any maintenance performed.
Requirements
Basic Qualifications (Skills & Knowledge)
Technical Aptitude:
Basic familiarity with mechanical systems and understanding of how simple motors or robotics operate.
Computer Skills:
Basic proficiency in using a computer or tablet for operating a simple control interface (G-code sender basic printer control software) and basic knowledge of 3d modelling software (CAD) to produce or modify simple designs made by design engineers.
Construction/Material Knowledge: Basic understanding of construction materials particularly concrete or mortar including mixing consistency and curing.
Troubleshooting:
Ability to observe system function identify simple problems (e.g. a loose wire a jam) and communicate them clearly.
Electrical awareness:
Basic understanding of electrical circuits both DC and AC (single and 3 phase) to be able to troubleshoot and fix simple issues like loose wiring in a safe manner.
Work Environment:
Comfortable working on a construction or workshop site which may involve physical labor lifting working outdoors securing heavy loads for crane lifting and securing them in a trailer.
Education:
High school diploma or equivalent.
Mindset:
Eagerness to learn strong attention to detail and a commitment to producing high-quality work.
