Where a hydraulic forging press worker can go next
5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a hydraulic forging press worker already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.
Hydraulic forging press workers set up and tend hydraulic forging presses, designed to shape ferrous and non-ferrous metal workpieces including pipes, tubes and hollow profiles and other products of the first processing of steel in their desired form by use of compressive forces generated by a piston and fluid pressure.
Also known as hydraulic foundry patternmaker technician, hydraulic foundry patternmaker, hydraulic sheet metal worker, hydraulic patternmaking operator, hydraulic foundry moulder, hydraulic sheet metal operative, hydraulic sheet metal apprentice, hydraulic foundry moulding operator, hydraulic sheet metal technical, hydraulic patternmaking technician.
