Job Description

Job Summary:

The Lab Technician is responsible for monitoring and maintaining the chemical and physical parameters of the pre-treatment and powder coating processes to ensure product quality and compliance with internal specifications. The role involves daily testing, process validation, equipment maintenance, and quality reporting.

Key Responsibilities:

Daily Duties:

Ensure cleanliness and readiness of the lab, equipment, and instruments. Check water level in the pre-treatment bath and refill with RO1 and RO2 water as required. Conduct titration tests to verify total alkalinity and total acid levels in the bath. Add chemicals to the bath (powder mixed in RO water, liquid added directly) based on test results. Always use safety gear (goggles and gloves) when handling chemicals. Record chemical values and temperature hourly in the in-process report with graph updates. Monitor powder coating process parameters hourly and record them. Inspect incoming raw materials for excess oil, dents, rust, or damages before allowing pre-treatment. Ensure no yellow stains or powder deposits on treated materials; white layer must be visible on nail scratch. Inspect final coated materials for defects like blistering, rundown, or ooze-out and initiate corrective action if needed.

Testing & Quality Control:

Perform coating thickness, gloss level, adhesion, and hot water tests as per daily plan. Check TDS and pH of input water (RO1 & RO2).
