- Setup, trouble-shoot, and operate CNC Swiss Lathes (sliding headstock) including tooling installation, offsets, work-holding, and coolant lines (high and low pressure).

WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR.

- Familiarity with related manufacturing processes (CNC milling/turning, blast finishing, laser marking, cleaning, passivation, anodization, heat treatment, forming) is a plus.
