How you'll help us Keep Climbing (overview & key responsibilities)
- Vision: Deliver world-class service to all customers
- Mission: Make every customer feel like the most valued person
- Under the direction of production management, the CNC Programmer will generate CAM code programs for a variety of CNC machines, Point drawings, and machine set ups. The programs generated will produce or repair precision aircraft parts using multiple types of CNC equipment, accurate measurement tools and portable coordinate measuring equipment.
- Plans machining operation by generating CNC G&M code programs/point drawings and machine set-up sheets by studying work orders, engineering orthographic drawings, engineering work instructions, materials, specifications, reference planes, locations of surfaces, and machining parameters interpreting geometric Imperial, SI dimensions base on ANSI and ISO standards and tolerances (GD&T).
- Use Mastercam software to program mills and lathes by entering machine code and operation instructions, including zero and reference points, setting tool registers and offsets, compensation, conditional switches, and calculating requirements including basic math (geometry, and trigonometry).
- Sets-up mills, lathes and grinders by installing and adjusting three- and four-jaw chucks, tools, attachments, collets, bushings, cams, gears, stops, and stock pushers. Indicating vices, machining fixtures and tramming machine heads.
- Verifies settings and program code by measuring positions, first-run part, and sample work pieces adhering to DFP standards.
- Maintains part specifications by observing machining operations. Verify the feed and speed of machines during the machining process, taking measurements, detecting program code error and malfunctions. Troubleshooting processes, adjusting and editing programming parameters. Sharpening and replacing worn tools. Adhering to DFP quality assurance procedures and processes specifications.
- Maintains equipment by completing instructed preventive maintenance requirements, following manufacturer's and DFP instructions. Troubleshooting malfunctions and reporting to management for equipment repairs.
- Maintains continuity among work shifts by documenting and communicating actions, irregularities, and continuing needs in job turnovers. Documents actions by completing production and quality logs.
- Updates job knowledge by participating in educational opportunities (offsite / off-shift training) and continuous self-improvement through trade publications.
- Accomplishes organization goals by accepting ownership for accomplishing new and different requests (cross training), exploring opportunities to add value to job accomplishments.
- Comply with lean manufacturing principles and work with leads and supervisors to explore and implement best practices in the manufacturing process.
- Maintains safe operations by adhering to DFP safety procedures and regulations.
- Effectively work with co-workers, engineering and management in problem solving and exploring and implementing best practices in our operations.
- Be prepared to cross train and be utilized in other aspects in the production process.
