Machine Setup: Load raw materials, set cutting tools, and prepare the CNC machine for operation.
Programming & Operation: Input or load software commands (e.g., G-code) and run test cycles to ensure the fabricated pieces meet required specifications.
Quality Control: Inspect and measure finished parts using precision tools (e.g., calipers, micrometers) to verify dimensions against blueprints.
Troubleshooting: Monitor operations and adjust machine settings mid-cycle to correct errors or tool wear.
Maintenance: Perform routine preventative maintenance and troubleshoot mechanical malfunctions to prevent production downtime.
Safety Compliance: Adhere strictly to all manufacturing and OSHA safety guidelines, maintaining a clean and organized workspace. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
