  • In‑Process Inspection:
    Perform frequent checks using micrometers, height gauges, and profilometers to ensure parts meet blueprint specifications
CNC Milling (Haas Vertical Machining Centers)
  • Machine Operation:
    Load programs, set tool offsets, and establish work coordinates (G54–G59) on Haas VMC platforms
  • Tooling & Hardware:
    Select and install appropriate carbide end mills, drills, and taps; swap out worn inserts as necessary
  • Cycle Monitoring:
