Industrial Stamping Press Maintenance Technician

About the Role Step onto our second shift and become the go-to expert who keeps high-tonnage metal stamping operations running. You’ll split your time between two nearby plants, so dependable self-transportation is essential. This position is for an experienced manufacturing press and machine repair professional—someone who has already repaired metal stamping presses, weld cells, compressors, and similar production equipment.

A Day in the Life You arrive, review the maintenance queue, and tackle a coil-fed press that’s showing a hydraulic pressure fluctuation. You listen for irregularities, isolate the fault, and tear down the assembly to reach a worn seal. After measuring, replacing, and aligning components, you re-pipe a section of hydraulic line, bring the press back online, and run test parts to confirm quality.

Later, you fine-tune an automated lubrication circuit, then shift to the other facility to realign a clutch and spindle on a Minster press. Before clocking out, you tweak a computer-controlled motion routine so the Aida press cycles smoothly.

What You’ll Work On Repairing and maintaining mechanical and hydraulic systems on production equipment, including coil-fed metal stamping presses, metal fabrication machine tools, material handling gear, and automated lubrication systems.

Diagnosing malfunctions by observing, listening, and inspecting equipment; dismantling machinery to access problem areas.

Measuring parts to verify wear or misalignment; removing and replacing worn components in drive and hydraulic systems.

Realigning and adjusting assemblies such as spindles and clutches for optimal performance.

Locating damaged pneumatic and hydraulic piping; cutting, threading, and installing new lines.

Starting and testing machines after repair to validate operation and quality.

Fabricating or restoring parts using a lathe, drill press, and grinder.

Modifying computer-controlled motion in automation to resolve cycle or positioning issues.
