Responsibilities

Key Accountabilities:

• Set up, fabricate, and verify parts by operating conventional and computerized numerical controlled (CNC) machines and mediums or secondary hand and power tool operations such as hand or power feed drill presses, operate duplicating, numerical milling, profiling machines, vertical turret lathes, horizontal and/or jig boring mills, various types of milling machines, radial drill presses, engine lathes and determine and select cutting tools and fixtures for Machining aircraft parts precision grinding machines.

• Maintain make ready crib.

  Representative Duties  

  Tulsa -

• Plan sequences of operations and method of setup including method of holding and aligning work. Determine tooling, speeds, feeds, and depth of drilling: determine dimensions, tolerances, operations to be performed, operational sequences and methods.
• Layout, scribe, mark, and locate references lines, center points and center lines using precision measuring instruments to scale and compute angular and linear dimensions, including those which involve complex contours, compound angles, and exacting tolerances, scribing circumferences of holes, and prick-punching intersection of circles and center lines as a guide in positioning cutting tool.
• Setup and operate duplicating or numerical controlled milling, drill press or profiling machines in manual and automatic modes to fabricate castings, forgings, and machined parts.
• Setup and operate four or more axis numerical controlled milling and profiling machines in manual and automatic modes to proof new or revised numerical control tapes.
• Setup and operate vertical turret lathes to machine tooling and experimental parts to exacting tolerances and coordinated dimensions.
• Setup and operate horizontal and jig boring mills to perform boring, drilling, milling, blind line boring, facing, reaming and tapping where exacting tolerances and coordinated dimensions are required.
• Setup and operate boring mills to perform straight and single angle boring, line boring, counter boring, drilling, reaming, tapping, face and radii milling and profiling.
• Setup and operate milling machines to perform work to close tolerances with the aid of all special holding fixtures and attachments. Use rotary tables, dividing or indexing heads, slotting attachments and subheads to perform operations such as milling compound/ multiple/single angles. Radii, slab, and end milling, straddle and gang milling, splines, serrations, keyways, gears, and sprockets.
• Setup and operate numerical controlled turret lathes to proof tooling or numerical controlled tape on first run parts, on both tape and manual mode making all types of lathe machining cuts to fabricate first run parts.
• Setup and operate radial drill press to drill, bore, ream, face, lap, tap, countersink, spot face, and fly cut to exacting tolerances on non-repetitive tooling, experimental maintenance, or variable production parts.
• Improvise and adapt tooling and holding fixtures as necessary. Setup and operate engine lathe to turn, face, bore, drill, groove, ream, chamfer, and tap parts to close tolerance: cut or chase all types of threads by use of taps and dies, cut straight or single lead thread by use of single cutting toll; machine angles and radius. Check parts for correct finish and dimensions using height gages, gauge blocks, micrometers, calipers and protractors, and other precession tools.
