2nd Shift CNC Machinist

Description

A CNC machinist at Betts may work in any of our machining departments which include 3-axis mills, 5 axis mills, horizontal mills, dual-spindle lathe (with live tooling), and 5-axis machine centers (mill head with turning turret). A Betts machinist is provided with a machine, program, and preset cart of supplies, and will use those tools to setup his or her machine.

They will then be expected to run production on that machine, inspecting parts to ensure critical dimensions are being held consistently.

Machinists will be expected to progress and hit pre-determined efficiency standards for each specific part. A CNC machinist at Betts can expect a fast-paced environment with a high mix of medical parts being ran on their machines.

Betts Precision is a family-owned medical device manufacturer focused on providing employees a safe place to enjoy their work day, build technical and personal skills, all while creating a better life for them and their families. With the help of these amazing team members, we set the standard in the medical industry in terms of quality, service, and creativity.
