SUMMARY

A Dimensional Quality Assurance Inspector will perform visual and dimensional inspections on precision machined components and assemblies to ensure product meets quality standards. Components will be inspected to blueprints, engineering drawings, industry standards, and specifications.

PRIMARY DUTIES & RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Visually and dimensionally inspect precision machined components utilizing a variety of measuring instruments and gages, such as calipers, micrometers, micro-hites, optical comparator’s, CMM’s, etc.
• Inspect parts that are in-process, at receiving, and at final inspection to ensure quality.
• Work from verbal or written instructions, quality standards, and/or other quality documentation.
• Initiate and maintain a positive interaction between quality and production personnel.
• Maintain inspection records and documentation.
• Initiate corrective action requests.
• Provide on-the-job training.
• Maintain equipment in a clean manner and ensure that all equipment is handled and stored properly such that it will be protected from damage when not in use.
• Adhere to all company procedures and policies.
• Other duties as assigned.

EDUCATION and/or EXPERIENCE

• High school diploma or equivalent required
• At least 5 years’ experience performing mechanical inspection in a precision machining environment.
• Capable of using a variety of gages, including but not limited to, calipers, micrometers, micro-hites, optical comparators, CMM’s, etc.
• Ability to perform multiple tasks in a fast-paced environment to assure quality and delivery requirements.
• Ability to read and interpret blueprints and specifications.
• Advanced knowledge of GD&T.
• Clear communication skills (oral and written).
• Prefer experience in an ISO 9001/AS9100 environment.
• Prefer experience with Keyence IM Series.
• Prefer experience with MCOSMOS and MiCAT Planner.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS

• Must have your own calipers and 0-1” micrometers
• Must wear OSHA approved safety shoes
• Must wear ANSI Z-87.1-2010 Impact Rated safety glasses
• Must wear current vision prescription, if required
• This position requires access to information controlled under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). Due to ITAR requirements, applicants must be a 'U.S. person' as defined in 22 CFR § 120.62: a person who is a lawful permanent resident as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(20) or who is a protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3).

SMT specializes in precision machined components and assemblies primarily for the aircraft, aerospace, and defense industries.
We have 21 CNC machines, including 6 horizontal mills (3 of which are on a 23 pallet FMS and 1 has its own 6 pallet system), 1 high speed, 4-axis, vertical mill, 4 vertical mills with capability up to fifth axis positioning, and 8 lathes (some with live tooling). Our 2 most advanced CNC lathes are twin spindle, have twin Y axis turrets with live tooling, and are in a cell with a Fanuc robot.
Some of our niche capabilities include:
-Complex internal and external deburring and finishing under 10-40x magnification
-Process to create precision .0005" tolerance bores with less than 16 microfinish, and 11 sigma capability
-Precision surface treatment applications that eliminate the need for masking when parts require a combination of anodize and chemfilm, which results in clear and consistent edges every time.
