About the position.
Welding aluminium places different demands on your technique than steel: the material conducts heat quickly, oxidises quickly and requires specific preparation and equipment settings. As an aluminium welder, you use TIG or MIG/pulse MIG to work on structures and parts in a wide range of aluminium alloys, from the 5xxx series to the 6xxx series.
What will you be doing?
- Welding aluminium structures and parts using TIG or pulsed MIG technique
- Cleaning and degreasing aluminium surfaces before and after welding
- Setting welding equipment to the specific parameters for aluminium alloys
- Reading working drawings and determining the correct sequence to limit distortion
- Checking welds for porosity, cracks and incomplete fusion
- Finishing welded joints by pickling, brushing or grinding where applicable
What we ask of you.
- MBO level 3 in Welding, with proven specialisation in aluminium
- At least 2 years' work experience welding aluminium (TIG and/or MIG)
- Knowledge of common aluminium alloys (5083, 6061, 6082) and their welding properties
- An aluminium welding qualification in accordance with EN ISO 9606-2 is a strong advantage
- Accurate, safety-conscious and quality-focused
