Job Description

Key Roles and Responsibilities

3D Model Interpretation and Creation

Create and interpret 3D models from files provided in formats like STEP, IGES, or SolidWorks. If only a physical sample is provided, take precise measurements and reverse-engineer it into a 3D model using CAD software.

CNC Program Development

Develop CNC programs for 3-axis VMC machines using CAM software (e.g., Mastercam, NX, Fusion 360). Select appropriate machining strategies based on material, geometry, and finish requirements.

Setup and Operation

Set up the VMC machine, including fixture and tool selection based on the job requirements. Run the machine and monitor the machining process, making adjustments as needed to achieve specified tolerances and finishes.

Pre-Machining Process Knowledge

Understand and perform part preparation such as cleaning, deburring, and marking reference datums. Verify raw material specifications and ensure correct stock selection.

Tooling Expertise

Select and install correct cutting tools, holders, and workholding devices. Optimize tool paths and feeds/speeds for improved cycle times and tool life.

GD&T Interpretation

Read and interpret engineering drawings with Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing annotations to ensure part meets design intent. Apply GD&T principles during both modeling and inspection stages.

Post-Machining Process Knowledge

Check finished parts against dimensional and surface finish requirements. Document and report discrepancies or errors in the process. Conduct part deburring, cleaning, and any required secondary processes.

Continuous Improvement & Documentation

Maintain and update CNC program and process documentation. Suggest and implement process improvements to increase productivity, accuracy, and safety.

Collaboration

Work closely with design engineers, quality inspectors, and production team members to resolve issues and optimize outcomes.

Desired Experience

Previous experience as a CNC/VMC Programmer or Machinist (preferably 3-5 years). Familiarity with different materials, cutting conditions, and tooling required for various applications. Track record of successfully programming and operating 3-axis VMC machines to achieve complex geometries and tight tolerances
