About The Position
The CNC Machinist sets up and operates CNC turning centers, including machines with live tooling, to produce parts through turning, drilling, boring, grooving, milling, tapping, facing, tapering, cutoff, reaming, and deburring. Available equipment includes Mazak Integrex i450 and i250 series, DMG Mori, Okuma, and Kitamura Bridge Mill machines. The role uses programs from tape, disc, or direct input and works with a tool setter and other CNC equipment.
