Manufacturing Vision Engineer

Manufacturing Vision Engineer / Machine Vision Engineer : Industrial AutomationLocation: Sheffield, South YorkshireDepartment: Manufacturing AutomationEmployment: Full:time

Overview

We are currently recruiting for our client in Sheffield, for a Manufacturing Engineer that has experience of getting involved in building machine vision systems behind next:generation green hydrogen manufacturing. This is an exciting role that would suit a hands:on Machine Vision Engineer, Vision Systems Engineer, Automation Engineer or Manufacturing Engineer with hands:on experience of industrial vision, automated inspection and production equipment?

The Role

• The role will work with machine vision cameras, optics, lighting, image processing, Automated Optical Inspection (AOI), Data Matrix/DMC identification and PLC:controlled automation, helping ensure our production equipment can consistently detect defects, identify products and capture the data required for quality and traceability.
• This role will also play an important role in introducing new manufacturing equipment, supporting NPI and production ramp:up, troubleshooting vision systems and establishing robust, repeatable vision standards across multiple machines and production areas.
• The role will be joining a manufacturing organisation where automation, inspection and industrialisation are critical to scaling production.
• This is an opportunity to have genuine technical ownership: youll help determine how machine vision is integrated into production equipment, solve real manufacturing problems and develop inspection solutions that need to work reliably in a live production environment.

Duties And Responsibilities

• Lead the integration and commissioning of industrial machine vision systems into automated manufacturing equipment and production lines.
• Configure and optimise machine vision cameras, lighting, optics and image:processing systems to achieve reliable and repeatable defect detection.
• Develop and implement Automated Optical Inspection (AOI) solutions for manufacturing applications.
• Integrate vision systems with PLC:controlled machinery and industrial automation systems.
• Support the installation, setup, commissioning and ramp:up of new manufacturing equipment.
• Translate manufacturing and quality requirements into practical vision inspection specifications and system configurations.
• Troubleshoot machine vision problems including image quality, lighting, camera setup, detection performance, communications and system integration.
• Work with equipment suppliers, machine builders and automation engineers to specify, validate and improve vision systems.
• Implement and maintain standards for machine vision, inspection and DMC/Data Matrix identification across multiple machines and production areas.
• Support NPI and industrialisation activities by ensuring vision and inspection systems are production:ready.
• Ensure vision data is captured correctly and made available to MES, traceability and downstream manufacturing systems.
• Drive continuous improvement of inspection capability, system reliability, repeatability and manufacturing robustness.

Essential Experience

What were looking for:

• Degree, HND, HNC or equivalent qualification in Electrical Engineering, Electronic Engineering, Automation, Mechatronics, Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Industrial Engineering or a related discipline.
• Around 5+ years experience in manufacturing engineering, industrialisation, NPI or manufacturing automation.
• Proven hands:on experience with industrial machine vision, automated inspection or AOI systems.Strong understanding of industrial cameras, optics, lighting, image acquisition and image processing.
• Experience integrating vision systems into automated manufacturing machinery or production lines.
• Experience working with PLCs and industrial automation systems.
• Practical experience of commissionin
