Description
Job Summary:
Professional to operate metal forming machines, interpret technical drawings, adjust parameters, and perform basic maintenance, with emphasis on precision and quality control.
Key Highlights:
1. Specialized operation of metal forming machines
2. Focus on metrology and dimensional control of parts
3. Responsibility for basic preventive maintenance of equipment
#### **Responsibilities**
* Operate metal forming machines—such as press brakes, shears, and rolling mills—according to technical specifications and drawings.
* Read and interpret technical drawings, production orders, and process sheets to configure machines.
* Adjust machine parameters—including pressing force, bending angles, and cutting speed—to ensure dimensional accuracy of parts.
* Monitor the forming process, identifying and correcting deviations or non-conformities in produced parts.
* Perform basic preventive maintenance of machines, such as cleaning, lubrication, and component inspection.
* Visually and dimensionally inspect produced parts using measuring instruments (calipers, micrometers, protractors).
* Record production data—including part quantities, cycle times, and incidents—in production control systems.
#### **Requirements**
* Proven experience (minimum 6 months) operating metal forming machines (press brakes, shears, or rolling mills).
* Course in Mechanical Technical Drawing Reading and Interpretation.
* Solid knowledge of metrology and use of measuring instruments (calipers, micrometers, protractors).
* Experience programming and adjusting CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines for metal forming.
* Familiarity with various metals and alloys (carbon steel, stainless steel, aluminum) and their forming characteristics.
* NR-12 certification (Occupational Safety in Machinery and Equipment) or willingness to obtain it.
* Completed elementary education.
