CNC Machine Operator Cmm Inspector

Tech Savvy Machinist? Read on.

EDCO, INC. is a family-oriented manufacturing company seeking great people to join our team of talented engineers, fabricators, and machinists. EDCO provides a professional and fun environment working with a diversified set of customers, products, equipment, and manufacturing processes. An AISC Certified Fabricator, EDCO works with General Construction, Marine Construction, Renewable Energy, Aerospace and Defense, and other industries with a need for metal fabrication and specialized custom equipment.

We are seeking an experienced CNC Machine Operator with a high level of proficiency in CMM Quality Control Inspection.

A qualified candidate would have no less than 5 years of CNC machining experience. This includes broad knowledge of machining techniques and CNC machine operation and involves familiarity with diverse setups and understanding of program formats involving combinations of operations to the capacity of the machine. Advanced setup, adjustments, proving out programming and operation to perform complex series of progressive machining operations with close and exacting tolerances requires a high degree of skill. May run more than one part simultaneously. This position assumes the machinist can work independently on the most complex parts and serves as a technical resource to less experienced machinists, including setting up and instructing other operators and performing inspection for conformance.

Additionally, this position requires no less than 2 years of experience in Quality Control inspection utilizing CMM Inspection software. The Quality Inspector must be able to work independently and with a team to inspect a variety of parts and materials using a variety of inspection instruments as well as perform detailed first article inspections. The Inspector examines materials received, finished products, and work in process of fabrication into metal products to ensure conformance with work orders, drawings, and template specifications.

Our shop runs specialty parts with tight tolerances, prototypes, and small production runs. This level of an operator should be able to work directly from a drawing or CAD model to develop a manufacturing process, fixture design, select special order tooling for purchase as well as further optimize existing programs and processes to improve production efficiency, quality and/or reliability. Our shop utilizes Mastercam and Haas mills and lathes for machining and CAM2 Software for our FARO Arm and a Laser Tracker for quality inspection.

If you are motivated self-starter, have excellent communication skills, and are dedicated, collaborative, professional, results-oriented, and highly reliable, we think you might be a great addition to our team and would love to learn more about you.
