Work history

Mechanical engineer

Premier Hose Technologies
Preston, Lancashire
2023.09 - Current
  • I was taught how to build and service aerospace hoses, bag valves, blanking caps, cartridge valves, and plugs. We supply these to BAE, GKN, Mercedes, and many more. They are typically used in autoclaves to vacuum seal carbon fibre onto components.
  • I have also been taught how to build and test the firefighting hoses that we supply; this consists of building a male and female high-pressure coupling and then using ferrules to swage them onto the ends of the hoses. Then, using the high-pressure test rig, I would test them up to 80 bar in pressure.
  • What I currently do for Premier Hose is operate the CNC lathes and mill, which consists of me setting up a machine with the correct tooling, then probing all tools correctly, ensuring there is enough clearance, and then also running the first off for the part required.
