CNC MILLING MACHINIST

We are looking for a skilled CNC Milling Machinist to set up, program, and operate computer numerical control (CNC) milling machines to manufacture precision metal or plastic components. You will read engineering blueprints, ensure production tolerances are met, and maintain machine quality and safety standards. Key Responsibilities  Setup & Adjustment: Set up auto-lathe machines, including mounting work-holding devices, installing cutting tools, cams, and setting stops or feeds.  Machine Operation: Monitor continuous automated production runs, ensuring raw materials (bar stock) are fed properly and machine feeds/speeds are optimized.  Part Inspection: Conduct first-piece inspection and periodic in-process quality audits using micrometers, optical comparators, plug/thread gauges, and calipers.  Tool Sharpening & Replacement: Change worn or damaged cutting tools, inserts, and drills; perform tool sharpening and offsets as required.  Troubleshooting: Diagnose machining issues, thread pitch errors, dimensional drift, or surface finish flaws during operation and make immediate corrections.  Maintenance: Perform daily machine cleaning, lubrication, coolant level checks, and chip management. 
