Materials Engineer

Key Responsibilities:

Research and Development: Conduct research to identify new materials, coatings, and manufacturing processes that can improve foil performance, quality, and cost-effectiveness.

1. Material Testing: Design and perform experiments to assess the mechanical, thermal, electrical, and chemical properties of foil materials. Analyze test data to draw conclusions and make recommendations.
2. Product Development: Collaborate with cross-functional teams to develop new foil products or modify existing ones to meet specific customer or industry requirements.
3. Quality Control: Establish and maintain quality control procedures to ensure that foil materials and coatings meet industry standards and customer expectations.
4. Process Optimization: Optimize manufacturing processes for foil production, including casting, rolling, and coating, to enhance material properties and production efficiency.
5. Coating Development: Develop and test coatings and surface treatments for foils to improve properties such as corrosion resistance, adhesion, or electrical conductivity.
6. Testing and Analysis: Use advanced testing equipment and software to analyze material properties, assess product performance, and identify areas for improvement.
7. Regulatory Compliance: Ensure that foil materials and coatings comply with relevant industry regulations and safety standards.
