Requirements

Minimum of two years of on-the-job experience in mechanical inspection or a role involving routine mechanical inspection.
Knowledge of basic quality terms, definitions, and concepts.
Understanding of statistical terms and techniques, including plotting data and recognizing out-of-control conditions.
Familiarity with measurement types, terminology, scales, and calibration.
Ability to read and interpret blueprints and knowledge of critical, major, and minor characteristics.
Understanding of GD&T and the x, y, z coordinate system.
Proficiency in using inspection planning tools, conducting product audits, and determining sample sizes.
Strong mathematical skills, including measurement conversions and solving for x.
Attention to detail for solving complex problems.
Effective communication skills for giving and receiving detailed information.
Ability to work in an interactive manufacturing environment requiring teamwork and courtesy.

Responsibilities

Read blueprints and engineering specifications to obtain product information, such as specified material, surface finish, and dimensions.
Compare the surface of workpieces to standards using fingertip touch comparison to ensure the specified surface finish.
Measure dimensions, such as length, height, and distance, using precision instruments (e.g., micrometers, calipers, dial indicators, optical comparators, CMMs, and snap gages).
Locate reference points on parts and measure dimensions (angles, arcs, and radii) using aids such as surface plates, parallel bars, angle plates, gage blocks, V-blocks, sine bars, and precision instruments.
Document findings on inspection sheets and report issues to supervisors.
Test first-run parts and verify the accuracy of inspection equipment.
Test hardness of workpieces using hardness testing machines.
Conduct training for and evaluate the initial work of probationary inspectors.
Perform other customer-driven or product-driven duties as assigned by the supervisor.
Handle parts balancing requests from customers.
Check part balance during production runs, including first parts produced, as required by production procedures.
Calibrate static balancers to an internal computer-generated setting for measurement.
Use static balancers to measure part balance and record data.
Conduct capability studies to determine if parts meet customer specifications.
Notify the Director of Quality Assurance or engineers of defective parts.
