Full Job Description

Position Overview
A Prototype Press Brake Technician is responsible for developing, setting up, and producing prototype and low-volume sheet metal components. Unlike a production operator who repeatedly runs established jobs, a prototype technician must independently interpret engineering drawings, determine forming methods, select tooling, troubleshoot issues, and collaborate with engineering to ensure parts meet design intent and manufacturability requirements.

1. Blueprint and Drawing Interpretation

· Read and interpret fabrication drawings, assembly prints, and engineering specifications.

· Understand dimensions, tolerances, geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T), bend notes, and revision control.

· Identify critical features that affect fit, function, and assembly.

· Verify that flat patterns and formed dimensions align with print requirements.

2. Press Brake Setup and Operation

· Perform complete machine setup including tooling installation, alignment, and machine programming.

· Operate CNC and manual press brakes safely and efficiently.

· Develop and verify bend sequences to avoid collisions and dimensional issues.

· Perform first-piece inspections and make machine adjustments as required.

3. Sheet Metal Forming Knowledge

· Understand bend allowance, bend deduction, K-factor, outside setback, and springback.

· Calculate or verify developed flat lengths and formed dimensions.

· Understand how material thickness, grain direction, and bend radius affect part quality.

4. Tooling Selection and Tonnage Calculations

· Select appropriate punches, dies, V-openings, and specialty tooling.

· Calculate forming tonnage requirements and verify tooling limitations.

· Understand minimum flange lengths, tooling clearances, and radius formation.

5. Material Knowledge

· Work with carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum, galvanized steel, and specialty alloys.

· Understand material-specific forming characteristics and springback behavior.

· Recognize material defects and determine corrective actions.

6. Inspection and Quality Control

· Use calipers, micrometers, angle gauges, height gauges, and other inspection equipment.

· Inspect first articles and verify compliance with engineering requirements.

· Document dimensional results and communicate discrepancies.

7. Prototype Development and Problem Solving

· Analyze prototype parts and identify manufacturability concerns.

· Recommend design improvements that reduce cost, improve quality, or simplify fabrication.

· Troubleshoot dimensional issues and establish corrective actions.

· Work closely with engineering teams to develop repeatable manufacturing processes.

8. Manufacturing Process Knowledge

· Understand the relationship between forming operations and laser cutting, machining, welding, finishing, and assembly.

· Ensure formed parts meet downstream manufacturing requirements.

· Assist in developing work instructions and process documentation.

9. Safety and Workplace Practices

· Follow company safety policies, machine guarding requirements, and lockout/tagout procedures.

· Maintain a clean and organized work area.

· Promote safe material handling and lifting practices.

10. Communication and Teamwork

· Communicate effectively with engineers, programmers, quality personnel, and production teams.

· Provide feedback regarding manufacturability and process improvements.

· Support prototype development projects through collaboration and documentation.

Characteristics of a High-Performing Prototype Press Brake Technician

A highly skilled prototype technician can independently review a drawing, verify the flat pattern, select tooling, determine the optimal bend sequence, program and set up the press brake, produce a conforming first article, and identify potential design or manufacturing issues before the part reaches production. This individual often functions as a combination of machine operator, setup technician, process developer, and manufacturing engineer.
