Purpose and Scope of Job: Setup and operation of 2 & 3-axis CNC machines (lathes; mills horizontal and vertical; broaches).
Set up and operation of manual and semi-automatic lathes, mills, grinders, tool grinders, drills, broaches, shears, etc. Essential Functions (other duties may be assigned): Set up, adjust, and operate machine tools in order to perform precision machining operations while holding close tolerance dimensions with frequent assistance.
Read & interpret blueprints both imperial and metric standards. Calculate dimensions and tolerances using knowledge of mathematics (geometry, trigonometry) and part drawings / standards. Machine parts correctly with only set up
documentation and part drawing documentation. Follow Process Sheets, Process Maps, Standard Operating Procedures and Poka-Yoke systems implemented by Manufacturing Engineering and Shop management to generate predetermined production volumes, while ensuring best quality and lead times.
Use measuring gauges including micrometers, calipers, height gauge, depth gauge, bore gauges, Mahr gages, etc. to inspect manufactured parts, in order to ensure adherence to drawing tolerances. Ensure adherence to routed hours for production, depending on level of training provided. Provide feedback on equipment, tooling, jigs, fixtures, and work holding solutions to reduce setup times and eliminate rework.
Work closely with Machine shop supervisors, quality assurance, and maintenance personnel to proactively prevent problems with machining cells and tooling/fixtures, and to identify ways to improve efficiency, cost, layout, and safety.
Ensure all manufacturing safety & regulatory policies and procedures are implemented and maintained at all times. Actively practice a culture of 5S (Sort, Set and Order, Shine, Standardize and Sustain) in the machine shop. Be a resource to other company projects. Take part in brainstorming sessions and kaizen events designed to improve efficiency, costs and lead time Minimum Qualifications: Requires at least 4 years of experience operating a mix of manual, semi-automatic, and CNC machine tools in a fast paced work environment.
At least 3 years of CNC machining experience. At least 2 years of experience in high volume low mix production. Experience in using common measuring instruments (micrometers, calipers, height/depth/bore gauges). Experience in reading & interpreting complex drawings & blueprints in both imperial and metric standards. Experience in calculating dimensions and tolerances using knowledge of mathematics (geometry, trigonometry) and part drawings / standards. Experience in measuring perpendicularity, parallelism, concentricity, and run out in micron or sub-micron level resolutions on manufactured components.
Proficiency in setup, operation, & basic maintenance of 2 & 3 Axis CNC lathes; mills horizontal and vertical machining centers; and broaches Proficiency in setup, operation, & basic maintenance of manual lathes, mills, drills. Broaches, shears, band saw Ability to set up, adjust and operate all machine tools in order to perform precision machining operations while holding very close tolerances, and with minimal assistance.
