U103 MACHINIST-TOOLING

Plan machining operations and set up and operate a variety of machine tools and attachments to make, alter and repair parts of overall designs and tools and gauges to exacting tolerances and finishes requiring unusual machining operations, where information is not always complete. Tools and Equipment: Manual and CNC lathes, mills, duplicators, jig borers, jig mill, surface, cylindrical, internal and tool cutter grinders, drill presses, saws, tracer attachments, dividing heads, rotary tables, gear trains, jigs, fixtures, hand tools such as grinders, hammers, wrenches, files, stones, micrometer, verniers, protractor, dial indicators, scales, sine plates and bars, surface plates, height gauges, optical comparator, safety glasses. Material: A variety of ferrous and nonferrous metals and alloys, woods, and plastic for tools, dies, gauges, jigs, and fixture components and assemblies. Direction of Others: None 1. Receive work assignment from supervision. 2. Read and follow safety regulations and procedures and MI package including drawings, change notices, sketches, operation sheets, specifications, work authorizations, and verbal data. Develop dimensions for parts where information supplies are incomplete. 3. Plan the machining operations and sequences required to machine a variety of cutting tools, and component parts of overall designs. Make difficult calculations involving geometry and trigonometry and lay out reference lines on material. 4. Set up, operate, and adjust a variety of machine tools and attachments to make, alter, and repair parts of overall designs and single tools and gauges requiring considerable ingenuity and improvising to accomplish difficult; machining operations to exacting tolerances and finishes. May make special fixtures for holding positioning and clamping material and tack weld items together to facilitate machining. 5. 6. Assist Tool, Die and Gauge Maker in assembling, fitting and aligning complete tools, jigs, and fixtures. 7. Maintain tools, equipment, and work area in a clean and orderly condition. 8. Make proper time charge entries and record data as required. 9. Perform other work of equal or lower classification as required. This is a Union Represented Position.
