Plastics Fabricator or Welder Cover Letter Template

Dear Hiring Manager, I’ve built a solid track record on the shop floor, where accurate cutting and joins matter. At my last role I trimmed and joined poly parts to spec, using electrofusion and butt welds on polyethylene. A typical day means reading drawings, setting up machines, and chasing small defects before they become rejects. I’ve worked with tools and machines that measure to the tenth of a millimetre, and I know how to keep cycles moving without sacrificing quality. I’m comfortable with blueprint reading, setup and operation of plastics machines, and finishing with sanding and polishing. I’m familiar with quality checks like dimensional checks and colour clarity, and I understand the need to document measurements and pass along notes to the team. I’ve kept stock at standard tolerances and I’m mindful of the impact of heat on material properties when welding or trimming. A concrete example from [Previous Company] stands out. I replaced a failing butt weld process on a run of extruded pipe components, then introduced a simple checklist that caught misalignments before welding. We reduced rework by a noticeable margin and significantly improved first-time pass rate. The team appreciated the clearer guidance, and I learned to flag issues that might not be obvious in the moment. I’d welcome a chat about how my hands-on experience with plastic welding, electrofusion, and quality control can support [Company Name]. I’m available for a discussion at your convenience. Kind regards, [Your Name]
