Responsibilities

Priority is “setting up” parts/components on the CNC Machines per the work order and set-up sheets. CNC Machines used will be Vertical and Horizontal machining centers.

It is the Machinist Level 2 Setup Machinist’s responsibility to communicate with his/her “mirror” co-worker (on the other shift) to ensure parts are running well, and the paperwork is proper order ONCE the part has been set-up and confirmed an “in-tolerance” part.

Inspect parts per manufacturing inspection plan (MIP) and accurately record all results on the MIP document as parts come off the CNCs.

It is the responsibility of the Operator to use proper inspection tools, methods, and protocol when inspecting parts/components. Communication with the Shop Floor Manager, Production Manager, or Programmer (when necessary) and Compliance Specialist is an expectation when running the initial set-up and ultimately production parts.

Tag and document all nonconformance parts per the AS9100 procedures/work instructions.

Note:

Must tag all set-up pieces.

Clocking into work at the beginning of shift and clocking out of work at the end of shift. This is your payroll time. No overtime will be paid unless written authorization is approved.
