  • Perform preventive and predictive maintenance to minimize downtime.
  • Troubleshoot 110V–480V systems (single-phase and three-phase)
  • Install, troubleshoot, and repair AC/DC motors, servo drives, starters, and relays.
  • Work with PLC and HMI systems to diagnose automation and control issues.
  • Maintain gearboxes, cylinders, bearings, belts, and rollers.
  • Read and interpret electrical schematics, blueprints, and technical manuals.
  • Assist with installation and commissioning of new printing equipment.
  • Maintain maintenance records and follow safety standards.

  • Experience in flexographic printing, label converting, or packaging manufacturing strongly preferred.
  • Strong knowledge of PLCs, HMIs, control systems, and AC/DC drives.
  • Experience troubleshooting servo motors and press automation systems.
  • Knowledge of hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
  • Ability to read electrical schematics and mechanical drawings.
  • Strong troubleshooting and problem-solving skills.
