Primary purpose of the job :
Set up and operate a variety of machine tools such as lathes, milling machines, and grinders, to produce precision metal parts.
Duties and Responsibilities :
- Able to Set up and operate multi-axis numerically controlled lathe machining centers to machine complex surfaces on metallic and nonmetallic work pieces, drill bore or tap holes as required by computer program.
- Inserts precision indicator in machine spindle, and depresses switches to jog spindle into contact with work piece, synchronize tape and tool, and record set-up point. Retracts spindle and loads and secures first preset tool and holder. Starts machine and observes metal-cutting action.
- Compares numerical data displays with specifications on operations sheet. Assembles and presets tooling for next operation during tape-controlled cycle to reduce machine downtime. Occasionally replaces milling with drilling and boring tools at specified change points to reduce or eliminate need for subsequent machining or work piece on another machine.
