On-the-job training
  • Adjust machine feed and speed, change cutting tools, or adjust machine controls when automatic programming is faulty or if machines malfunction
  • Calculate machine speed and feed ratios, and the size and position of cuts
  • Check to ensure that workpieces are properly lubricated and cooled during machine operation
  • Enter commands or load control media such as tapes, cards, or disks into machine controllers in order to retrieve programmed instructions
  • Input initial part dimensions into machine control panels
  • Insert control instructions into machine control units to start operation
  • Lift workpieces to machines manually, or with hoists or cranes
  • Listen to machines during operation in order to detect sounds such as those made by dull cutting tools or excessive vibration and adjust machines to compensate for problems
  • Measure dimensions of finished workpieces to ensure conformance to specifications, using precision measuring instruments, templates, and fixtures
  • Modify cutting programs to account for problems encountered during operation and save modified programs
  • Monitor machine operation and control panel displays, and compare readings to specifications in order to detect malfunctions
  • Mount, install, align, and secure tools, attachments, fixtures, and workpieces on machines, using hand tools and precision measuring instruments
  • Remove and replace dull cutting tools
  • Review program specifications or blueprints to determine and set machine operations and sequencing, finished workpiece dimensions, or numerical control sequences
  • Set up and operate computer-controlled machines or robots to perform one or more machine functions on metal or plastic workpieces
  • Stop machines to remove finished workpieces, or to change tooling, setup, or workpiece placement, according to required machining sequences
  • Transfer commands from servers to computer numerical control (CNC) control modules, using computer network links
  • Clean machines, tooling, and parts, using solvents or solutions and rags
