Main Duties:

• Mould Making & Life Casting:

• Create accurate and high-quality molds of human anatomical features, including life casting using silicone, plaster, and other medical-grade materials.

• Work with 3D scanning and printing technologies to develop precise anatomical models based on real-life data.

• Design, develop, and maintain detailed moulds that replicate human tissues, organs, and body structures.

• Prototyping & Product Development:

• Collaborate with the engineering and design teams to develop new prototypes for medical simulation models.

• Ensure that cast models are anatomically correct and adhere to stringent medical standards.

• Research innovative materials and techniques to improve model durability, functionality, and realism.

• Integration of Animatronics:

• Collaborate with electronics engineers to incorporate animatronic elements into models, simulating real-life functions such as breathing, heartbeat, and movement.

• Troubleshoot and maintain animatronic systems to ensure smooth performance during simulations.

• Assist in the design of internal mechanical structures that support animatronic functions.

• Material Handling & Safety:

• Work with medical-grade materials, ensuring safety protocols and industry standards are followed.

• Maintain a clean and organized workspace, adhering to company safety regulations.

• Ensure all equipment is properly maintained and ready for use.

• Quality Control:

• Perform quality checks on completed moulds and models, ensuring consistency in texture, durability, and functionality.

• Address any discrepancies and work closely with the production team to meet customer specifications.
