CNC Programmer

Overview  The CNC Programmer will be responsible for making programs for production runs for different machines. During the manufacturing process, you will perform quality checks with the machine operator to ensure the program is producing parts according to specifications, making manual adjustments if necessary. You will also look for product modifications that might reduce the amount of material or fabrication time.

Set up, check programs, and operate numerically controlled machine tools and/or CNC machining equipment to perform a complex series of progressive machining operations to meet precise tolerance and finish requirements
Understand program format and fixturing. Able to arrange, mount and secure work pieces in the absence of fixture
Setup and calibrate fixture to appropriate reference points
Install programs and/or cards in console reader and correlate machine position with controls
Manually cycles machine through an operation sequence to check fixture and work positions, tooling, clearances, speeds, feeds, etc
Adjust the machine/ console to correct deviations from program specifications.
Recognize reports and correct errors
Recommend tooling and operational sequence to assist in developing practical programming for new and unusual machining requirements
Able to troubleshoot and diagnose operating difficulties and make adjustments
Work form detailed and involved part drawings and specifications
Skills and Requirements   3-5 years of machinist/ programmer experience
Mathematical skills that require the ability to add, subtract, multiply, divide and perform geometric, algebraic and trigonometric calculations
