Recognized as a technology leader, Sanmina Corporation provides end-to-end manufacturing solutions, delivering superior quality and support to Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) primarily in the communications networks, defense and aerospace, industrial and semiconductor systems, medical, multimedia, computing and storage, automotive and clean technology sectors. Sanmina Corporation has facilities strategically located in key regions throughout the world. This is an ITAR facility and applicants must be a US Citizen or a lawful permanent resident. Sanmina in Turtle Lake is currently looking to hire Quality Inspectors to work a rotating 2/2/3 schedule. Hours: 6:30p - 7:00a or 7:00p - 7:30a Work every other weekend. Job Summary: The Quality Control Inspector (Plastics) is responsible for monitoring, inspecting, and testing plastic products throughout the production cycle. This role involves using precision measuring tools, conducting laboratory tests on polymer properties, and ensuring that all items comply with internal specifications and international standards. Key Responsibilities 1. Inspection & Testing
  • Visual Inspection: Checking for common plastic defects such as sink marks, splay, flash, short shots, or color inconsistencies.
  • Dimensional Verification: Using precision instruments to ensure parts match blueprints or CAD specifications.
  • Functional Testing: Performing "stress tests" to ensure the plastic doesn't crack under pressure or fail in its intended environment.
  • Material Analysis: Occasionally testing the raw resin or "melt flow index" to ensure the plastic hasn't been degraded during the heating process.
2. Documentation & Compliance
  • Reporting: Maintaining detailed logs of "Passed" vs. "Rejected" batches.
  • Non-Conformance Reports (NCR): Identifying why a batch failed and documenting the specific deviation from the standard.
  • Traceability: Ensuring that every batch can be traced back to a specific machine, operator, and raw material lot.
3. Process Improvement
  • Calibration: Regularly checking that gauges and scales are accurate.
  • Feedback Loop: Working with machine operators to adjust temperatures or pressures if parts begin to drift out of specification.
Technical Toolkit A QC Inspector doesn't just "look" at things; they use a variety of specialized tools to quantify quality.
  • Digital Calipers Measuring thickness, diameter, and depth.
  • Micrometers Extremely precise measurement for thin-walled plastic parts.
  • Spectrophotometer Measuring color consistency to ensure "Brand Blue" is actually blue.
Required Skills & Qualifications Soft Skills
  • Unwavering Attention to Detail: Spotting a 0.5mm defect in a sea of thousands of parts.
  • Objectivity: The ability to "red tag" a batch even when production is behind schedule.
  • Communication: Explaining technical failures to non-technical teams clearly and without friction.
Work Environment
  • Setting: Primarily on the manufacturing floor (which can be noisy and warm due to injection molding or extrusion machines) and in the QC lab.
  • Physical Requirements: Long periods of standing and the ability to lift up to 20 pounds.
  • Safety: Mandatory use of PPE
A Quality Control (QC) Inspector in the plastics industry is the final line of defense between a manufacturing glitch and a disappointed customer. Whether it's automotive parts, medical devices, or simple consumer packaging, these inspectors ensure that every piece coming off the line meets rigorous structural and aesthetic standards. In addition, Sanmina Provides a variety of benefits including health insurance coverage, life and disability insurance, savings plan, Company paid holidays, 40 hours of sick time from day one, and paid time off (PTO).
