• Experience with interpreting blue prints, sketches, manufacturing instructions and GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing).
• Experience in set up of Vertical and Horizontal Mill and Lathe, Offsets, Fixtures, Planer Jacks, Ground Blocks, etc. independently.
• Experience in interpreting machine code and experience with MDI (Manual Data Input).
• Experience using measuring instruments such as indicators, calipers, micrometers, bore micrometers, height gages, thread gauges and other hand tools with a full knowledge of their application.
• US citizenship is required.

Responsibilities

• Receive work assignments from lead or supervision.
• Read and follow safety regulations and procedures, and MI package, including drawings, change notices, operation sheets, specifications, work authorizations, tape, readout sheets, and set‑up sheets.
• Align, shim, and position tools in holders to exacting tolerances. Select and set optimum speeds and feeds. Set read out and positioning indicators for reference.
• Analyze manufacturing information, production drawings, instructions, and parts. Plan sequence of operations, method of holding and aligning workpiece, and machining cuts required to obtain specified finishes and tolerances where details are not normally provided.
• Lay out and scribe or mark on parts reference lines and center points for precise machining dimensions where accuracy is essential. Use trigonometry and geometry tables and/or charts to determine dimensions for bolt circles, angles, chords, etc.
• Position, align, level and clamp workpieces and/or fixtures to exacting tolerances in all axis. Improvise as necessary to prevent distortion in positioning and holding part.
• Set up, operate/perform and adjust any (8) of the following types of machines/machining operations Manual: 1) Boring Mill‑Horiz, 2) Boring Mill‑Vert, 3) Lathe‑Horiz, 4) Planer Mill, 5) Line Boring, 6) Drilling, 7) Superfinishing, 8) Layout, 9) Broaching (multiple or single task), 10) Grinding. CNC,/DNC: 1) Boring Mill‑Horiz, 2) Boring Mill‑Vert, 3) Lathe‑Horiz, 4) Drilling, to machine a variety of parts with numerous steps, diameters and fits to accomplish exacting tolerances of finish, perpendicularity, concentricity, parallelism and flatness, etc.
• Develop and/or follow the sequencing of CNC/DNC machines. Prepare, proof or make changes to programs as necessary to produce part to specifications. Correct program errors and supplement movement in manual mode and perform operations.
• Disassemble setups of jobs and clean and return fixtures, gages, tools, etc., to their assigned locations.
• Check work for conformance to specifications and chart dimensions. Sign off operations completed and obtain first piece and final inspection sign offs on operation sheets.
• Must be able to obtain and maintain certified operator measurement certification through periodic testing.
• Maintain tools, equipment and work area in a clean and orderly condition.
• Maintain a working knowledge of various machining principles and practices, processes, capabilities, tooling, and technologies. Recommend and/or initiate changes in machining procedures and methods to improve operating efficiency.
• Relay pertinent job information to employees assigned to the same machines on follow up shifts.
• Perform work of equal or lower classification as required.
