• Follows instructions to machine, fabricate, or assemble parts to print and operation sheet specifications using conventional and CNC machines
• Interprets CAD data, prints and sketches with regard to fabrication and follow written/verbal instructions
• Performs secondary operations during the machine cycle such as deburring and straightening
• Inspects parts as they are produced using standard gages, micrometers, indicators, vernier calipers, depth gages, and other measuring devices, to ensure conformity to specifications
• Inspects cutting tools for wear to ensure the quality of parts and makes adjustments during production run as required to maintain quality parts and to keep the machine running
• Maintains coolant levels to ensure a steady supply of coolant/cutting fluids to the machine
• Receives and, when assigned, provides cross\-training for other tasks related to department functions and procedures
• Recommends and executes changes to achieve process improvements and/or cycle time reductions
• Performs minor preventive maintenance to equipment
• Other job\-related duties as required by management
• Assists providing feedback on prescribed processes, fixturing, and tooling to Manufacturing Engineers to ensure that off\-line engineering is complete and optimize efficiency before online operations are performed
• Analyzes machining results and performance targets with budgeted times and communicates shift targets for jobs to be run in production
• Investigates “out of specification” problems in machining processes and work with ME’s and programmers to resolve such issues
• Provides technical support to Manufacturing personnel when necessary
• Verifies gages and inspection equipment required are correct and appropriate for the task
• Adheres to safety guidelines and the correct procedures for performing tasks to prevent personal injury or damage to product and/or equipment
