Conveyor EngineerLay out and engineer overhead and floor conveyor systems at the system level (power-and-free, enclosed track, chain-on-edge, skillet, roller, lift/transfer). Produce conveyor layouts, plan and elevation views, and sections in AutoCAD to customer and OEM CAD standards. Perform turn studies and clearance checks for carriers, loads, and product envelopes through curves, transfers, and elevation changes. Run chain pull calculations (CPPlus) under the guidance of a senior conveyor engineer; confirm drive sizing, take-up, and chain selection. Develop support steel and fit conveyor layouts to the customer's plant layout and building constraints. Provide the system definition component detailers work from; review detailed drawings for conformance (no component-level detailing). Incorporate markups and engineering changes; check and release drawings to customer standards. Coordinate with project engineers, controls, and installation teams; support site walks and field measurements.Associate degree in Mechanical Design / Engineering Technology, or equivalent technical training and experience.
