- Plan machining methods, sequences, setups and work holding
- Select appropriate tooling, speeds, feeds and cutting parameters
- Machine precision components to tight tolerances
- Confident with complex setups and large or heavy components
- Strong understanding of machine capabilities and machining processes
- Competent with precision measuring equipment including micrometers, verniers, bore gauges, height gauges and dial indicators
- Inspect and verify your own work
- Troubleshoot machining, tooling and setup issues
- Able to work independently with minimal supervision
General Workshop Skills
