JOB REQUIREMENTS: Develop programs to control machining or processing of metal or plastic parts by automatic machine tools, equipment, or systems. Align and secure pattern film on reference tables of optical programmers, and observe enlarger scope views of printed circuit boards. Analyze job orders, drawings, blueprints, specifications, printed circuit board pattern films, and design data to calculate dimensions, tool selection, machine speeds, and feed rates. Compare encoded tapes or computer printouts with original part specifications and blueprints to verify accuracy of instructions. Determine reference points, machine cutting paths, or hole locations, and compute angular and linear dimensions, radii, and curvatures. Determine the sequence of machine operations, and select the proper cutting tools needed to machine workpieces into the desired shapes. Draw machine tool paths on pattern film according to guidelines for tool speed and efficiency, using colored markers. Enter computer commands to store or retrieve parts patterns, graphic displays, or programs that transfer data to other media. Enter coordinates of hole locations into program memories by depressing pedals or buttons of programmers. Modify existing programs to enhance efficiency. Observe machines on trial runs or conduct computer simulations to ensure that programs and machinery will function properly and produce items that meet specifications. Perform preventative maintenance or minor repairs on machines. Write programs in the language of a machine\'s controller and store programs on media, such as punch tapes, magnetic tapes, or disks. Write instruction sheets and cutter lists for a machine\'s controller to guide setup and encode numerical control tapes. Sort shop orders into groups to maximize materials utilization and minimize machine setup time. Revise programs or tapes to eliminate errors, and retest programs to check that problems have been solved. Prepare geometric layouts from graphic displays, using computer-assisted drafting software or drafting instruments and graph paper. ***** OTHER EXPERIENCE AND QUALIFICATIONS: What you bring: High School Diploma or general education degree (GED) and Tool and Die Degree Preferred. Knowledge of machine operating procedures normally acquired through a minimum of two (2) years of experience in a similar position with technical in class training. And/ or completion of Crystal Finishing\'s CNC III in class training. Full comprehension of G code and basic programming methods. Must have basic computer entry skills. Must have basic math skills (add, subtract, multiply and divide). Ability to read, count and accurately measure is required. Ability to work in a team or independently. ***** APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS: Apply In Person: Facility 3 - Human Resources 2714 Ross Ave Weston, WI 54476 Apply Online: www.crystalfinishing.com/careers
