We are looking for someone with CNC LATHE setup and operating experience. It will be a huge plus if they know MAZAK machine control and have experience with Y-axis machining.

POSITION SUMMARY:
Operates various conventional and/or numerically controlled machining centers on semi‐complex jobs. Works from blueprints, sketches, planning sheets, verbal instructions, and/or engineering, tooling, or equipment information. Contributes to lean initiatives to increase productivity and reduce costs. Works with limited guidance in a team environment.

RESPONSIBILITIES:
1. Sets up and runs multiple production machines. Performs machine operations (including reworking parts) such as cutting, shaping, deburring, forming, drilling, and reaming parts. Performs machine operations where the materials, tooling, and sequence of operations have been pre‐planned and established. Makes necessary machine adjustments and reports improper machine functioning or cutting action for correction.
2. Aligns and fastens work using standard fixtures and established methods.
3. Installs and adjusts cutting tools consistent with type and size of material being machined.
4. Follows established manufacturing methods using standard production machines, materials, and tooling.
5. Adjusts feeds, speeds, and depth of cut to machine quality parts, per documentation.
6. Operates hand and power tools to deburr precision and complex machine parts in accordance with semi‐complicated engineering blueprints and route sheets to close tolerances.
7. Inspects parts for conformance to specifications using measuring instruments such as gages, calipers, micrometers and comparators. Uses various types of magnification equipment (including a microscope) to detect and avoid damage to surfaces and critical areas. Visually inspects parts for burrs or damaged machined surfaces.
8. Routinely maintains equipment to ensure cleanliness, accuracy, and reliability specific to division requirements.
9. Accurately and regularly performs statistical process control (SPC) specific to division requirements.
10. Actively implements lean initiatives by identifying and providing suggestions on areas for improvement. Effectively applies lean concepts and tools in work area.

Position Summary:
Coordinates complex programming support for machining parts, tools, or sheet metal on numerically controlled machine tools from the engineering design stage through the finished part. Ensures parts conform to dimensional specifications and equipment achieves throughput efficiency.

Responsibilities
• Provides programming support for machining parts, tools, or sheet metal on numerically controlled machine tools by writing complex programs of machine instructions in symbolic to encode numerical control code or direct the numerical control database to regulate the movement of the machine along the cutting path. Changes, updates, and/or initiates manufacturing processes.
• Safely and economically produces a part to the manufacturing engineering specification or drawing by selecting proper cutting tools for each part, taking into consideration such factors as speeds, types of cutters, feeds, and control system limitations.
• Selects program routines for the most efficient computer calculation of dimensional and machining requirements for each part by computing angular and linear dimensions, radii, and curvatures, and outlining the sequence of operations required to machine the part.
• Determines dimension and configuration of difficult cuts, selection of cutting tools, and machine speeds and feed rates by analyzing drawings, sketches, and design data of part.
• Coordinates and oversees code tryouts, including complete follow-up on all cycle-related procedures, documentation, and communications. Ensures accuracy by comparing encoded code or computer printout with the original program sheet.
• Shows location of reference points and direction of cutting paths by preparing geometric layout on graph paper or using computer-assisted drafting software.
• Modifies existing parts programs for engineering changes or program improvements. Eliminates instruction errors or omissions by revising the program.
• Analyzes proposed changes in methods and materials and contributes to continuous improvement and key lean manufacturing/production activities. Recommends actions by analyzing and interpreting data and making comparative analyses. May lead special projects in applying continuous improvement techniques and implementing changes.
