Job Description
Electrical Engineer Heavy Industry Equipment — Gantry &Overhead Crane Systems We are seeking a degree-qualified Electrical & Electronic Engineer to design, develop, commission, and support electrical control systems for heavy industry lifting equipment, with a focus on gantry cranes, overhead traveling cranes(EOT), and related hoisting machinery. The successful candidate will work across the full project lifecycle — from schematic design and panel layout through PLC/VFD programming, on-site commissioning, and after-sales technical support. Key Responsibilities Electrical Design & Documentation • Design electrical control schematics, power distribution diagrams, and panel/enclosure layouts for crane systems using AutoCAD (and/or EPLAN). • Prepare bills of materials, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation in line with international standards (IEC 60204-32, IEC60204-1) and local electrical codes. • Select and specify components: VFDs (e.g., ABB, Schneider ATV series), contactors, relays, circuit breakers, transformers, brake resistors, and safety devices. Control System Development • Program and configure PLCs (ABB, Siemens S7 series viaSTEP7/TIA Portal, or equivalent platforms) for crane motion control — hoist, long travel, cross travel. • Configure and tune variable frequency drives (VFDs) for crane motor control, including brake sequencing and load-holding safety logic. • Design and implement HMI/SCADA interfaces (e.g., MCGS or equivalent) for operator control and equipment status monitoring. Commissioning & Testing • Conduct factory acceptance testing (FAT) and site acceptance testing (SAT) of crane electrical systems. • Perform on-site commissioning, functional testing, and troubleshooting of control panels, motor circuits, and safety interlocks. • Verify compliance with crane safety standards (e.g., IEC 60204-32, EN 14492, local WSH/crane regulations) during commissioning. Technical Support &Continuous Improvement • Provide troubleshooting and technical sup
