VMC Machine operator

Key Responsibilities

•     Operate die-sinking EDM machines for precision machining of mould cavities, cores, ribs, engraving features, and other intricate geometries.

•     Operate wire-cut EDM machines for precision profiling of mould components, punches, electrodes, and inserts as required.

•     Set up jobs accurately — electrode alignment, workpiece fixturing, dielectric fluid management, and machining parameter selection.

•     Select and set appropriate EDM parameters (voltage, current, pulse-on/off time, flushing) based on material, geometry, and required surface finish.

•     Design and prepare electrodes (graphite or copper) or coordinate electrode procurement for die-sinking operations.

•     Read and interpret 2D drawings and 3D models to understand geometry requirements, tolerances, and surface finish specifications.

•     Perform in-process and post-process inspection using precision instruments to verify dimensional accuracy and surface finish (Ra).

•     Maintain EDM machines — dielectric fluid levels, filter condition, electrode wear checks, and daily machine upkeep.

•     Follow tool room SOPs, 5S standards, and safety protocols including dielectric fluid handling procedures.

•     Maintain job cards and EDM parameter records for traceability and repeatability.

Must Have

•     ITI / Diploma in Machinist / Tool & Die / Mechanical Engineering.

•     3–8 years of hands-on experience operating EDM machines (die-sinking and/or wire-cut) in a tool room environment.

•     Strong understanding of EDM principles — spark erosion, electrode wear, dielectric fluid, surface finish parameters.

•     Experience in electrode selection, preparation, and alignment for die-sinking operations.

•     Ability to read 2D engineering drawings — tolerances, surface finish callouts (Ra), geometric tolerances.

•     Proficiency with precision measurement instruments — vernier, micrometre, surface roughness tester.

•     Ability to independently select machining parameters based on material and finish requirements.

• It is a Full Time తయారీ job for candidates with 2 - 5 years of experience.
