Repair and calibrate precision measuring instruments such as dial indicators, fixed gauges, height gauges and other measuring devices.

Verify dimensions of machined parts or tooling with micrometers, verniers, callipers, height gauges, optical comparators, co-ordinate measuring machines (CMM) or other measuring instruments.

Set up machine tools for machining tool operators.

Verify product dimension for conformation to specifications with precision measuring instruments.

Assemble machined metal parts and sub assemblies with hand and power tools.Perform sawing, turning, milling, boring, planing, drilling, precision grinding and other precision, non-repetitive machining operations.Set up, operate and maintain a variety of machine tools including computer numerically controlled (CNC) tools.Analyze engineering blueprints, charts, drawings, tables and sample parts to determine proper machining operation and sequence.They are employed by machinery, equipment, motor vehicle, automotive parts, aircraft and other metal products manufacturing companies and by machine shops. Machining and tooling inspectors inspect the parts, products and tooling produced from machines to maintain quality control standards. CNC Machinists set up and operate a variety of machine tools to cut metal, plastic or other materials to create or modify parts and products with precise dimensions. CNC Machinists develop computer applications for machines and process, diagnose problems relating to CNC Machining and design programs for CNC machines.
