You'll program, set up, and run our CNC lathes and mills to turn drawings into finished parts for the wear solutions we build.
01
What you'll do
- Program, set up, and operate CNC lathes and mills with Fanuc 18T controls.
- Study blueprints, sketches, drawings, manuals, specifications, or sample parts to determine dimensions, tolerances, sequence of operations, and setup.
- Measure, mark, and scribe dimensions and reference points on material as guides for machining.
- Select, align, and secure holding fixtures, cutting tools, attachments, and materials, or enter and edit machine control programs to established procedures.
- Program mills and lathes: set zero and reference points, tool registers, offsets, compensation, and conditional switches, using basic math, geometry, and trigonometry, and prove out part programs.
- Set up mills and lathes by installing and adjusting three- and four-jaw chucks, tools, attachments, collets, bushings, cams, gears, stops, and indicating vises.
- Verify settings by measuring positions, first-run parts, and sample workpieces.
- Hold specifications through drilling, grooving, turning, facing, knurling, and thread chasing: measure, catch malfunctions, troubleshoot, adjust and reprogram controls, and sharpen or replace worn tools.
- Perform routine machine maintenance.
- Work with engineers, production, and programmers to solve machining or assembly problems.
- Operate overhead cranes, fork trucks, and other fabrication and machine shop equipment.
- Keep a clean, organized work area and equipment in like-new condition.
- Help keep a positive atmosphere with customers, co-workers, and management.
- Follow safe work practices and help find continuous improvements.
02
What you bring
- Associate's degree from a two-year college or technical school, or 2 to 3 years of related experience or training, or an equivalent combination
- Your own tooling and micrometers up to 6 in. outside and 12 in. inside
- Able to read safety rules, operating and maintenance instructions, and procedure manuals
- Working knowledge of geometry and trigonometry, plus fractions, percentages, ratios, and proportions
- Able to solve practical problems where only limited standardization exists, and follow written, oral, diagram, or schedule instructions
03
Physical demands and work environment
- Regularly stand; frequently walk, use your hands, reach, and talk or listen.
- Occasionally sit, climb or balance, stoop, kneel, crouch, or crawl.
- Occasionally lift or move up to 50 lbs.
- Close, distance, and peripheral vision, and the ability to adjust focus.
- Regular exposure to moving mechanical parts; noise is usually moderate.
