CNC Machinist 1st shift

Level Two: Building upon level one, with minimal assistance level two machinists operate 2-6 axis CNC/Automated or Manual as well as standalone machines, which requires basic machine setup including preparing and setting up fixtures and cutting tools, as well as loading and adjusting programs and/or offsets. Level two machinist competencies include the ability to use more advanced quality inspection tools and techniques such as height and air gauges and bench inspection. The level two machinist will have basic competencies in print reading and common CNC G and M codes, and be familiar with adjusting clutches, cams, and gears.
