Core Coil Assembly Section Manager

Detailed Job Description — Transformer Manufacturing Plant, Chittoor

Designation: Core Coil Assembly Section Manager

Department: Core-Coil Assembly – Transformer Manufacturing

Reporting To: Head – Manufacturing / Plant Head

Location: Chittoor, Andhra Pradesh

Transformer Capacity Range: Up to 20 MVA (Power & Distribution Transformers)

Qualification: B.Tech (Mechanical / Electrical Engineering)

Experience: 15 Years (Transformer / Heavy Electrical Equipment Manufacturing)

JOB PURPOSE

Manage the assembly of wound coils onto the core, fitting of clamping structures and insulation barriers, and verification of electrical clearances and mechanical integrity of the active part prior to drying and tanking. Ensure assembly quality, cycle time, and safe handling of heavy active parts.

PROJECT PHASE RESPONSIBILITIES

• Plan assembly sequence and clamping-structure requirements for new transformer designs with the design team.
• Design/specify jigs, fixtures, and lifting arrangements required for new core‑coil configurations.
• Conduct first assembly trials for new designs and verify electrical clearances (phase-to-phase, phase-to-earth) and mechanical fit‑up.
• Coordinate with Purchase/SCM for clamping hardware, insulation barriers, and pressboard components for new orders.

PRODUCTION PHASE RESPONSIBILITIES

• Prepare and monitor daily assembly schedules aligned with winding output and drying/tanking section pull.
• Supervise fitting of top/bottom yoke clamps, core clamping structures, and insulation barriers per drawing.
• Verify tightening torque values on clamping bolts/structures as per specification.
• Conduct in-process electrical clearance checks and mechanical alignment verification before handover.
• Coordinate crane/lifting operations for active part handling with trained riggers and supervisors.
• Manage rework/non-conformance closure for assembly-stage defects.
• Ensure timely, quality handover of assembled active parts to the Processing/Drying section.

TECHNICAL SKILLS

• Strong understanding of transformer active‑part assembly, clamping structures, and insulation coordination.
• Knowledge of mechanical fastening standards, torque specifications, and structural integrity checks.
• Familiarity with crane operations, rigging, and safe lifting practices for heavy transformer components.
• Ability to read and interpret mechanical/electrical assembly drawings and clearance diagrams.

LEADERSHIP REQUIREMENTS

• Lead assembly supervisors, fitters, and riggers across shifts.
• Coordinate cross-functionally with Winding, Processing/Drying, Design, and Quality teams.
• Train staff on assembly standards, clearance verification, and safe lifting procedures.
• Drive continuous improvement in assembly cycle time and rework reduction.

KEY PERFORMANCE INDICATORS (KPIs)

• Assembly cycle time vs. plan.
• Rework/non-conformance rate at assembly stage (%).
• Electrical clearance and torque compliance (%).
• On-time handover of active parts to drying section (%).
• Safety incident rate during lifting/assembly operations.

SAFETY & COMPLIANCE RESPONSIBILITIES

• Enforce crane and rigging safety protocols during active‑part lifting and positioning.
• Ensure use of certified lifting tackle and periodic inspection/certification of cranes and slings.
• Mandate PPE (safety helmets, gloves, safety footwear) during assembly operations.
• Enforce LOTO during maintenance of assembly‑area equipment.
• Maintain safe working clearances around suspended loads and moving active parts.
• Comply with ISO 45001 and statutory factory safety regulations for lifting equipment.
