Description
Supervisory Responsibilities: None
Purpose: To build and machine Proto@type components to the specifications required, while working in close collaboration with the Engineering Department and Production Departments. Assists in training for Entry and Intermediate level Proto@type Personnel.
Essential Duties/Responsibilities:
Ensure a safe work environment for self and others. Follows all safety rules and regulations. Demonstrate commitment to safety program.
Studies blueprint to determine machining needs, plans layout, and understands best plan for assembly for making recommendations
Studies and understands preliminary blueprints, specifications, recognizes manufacturing problems and cost reduction ideas and confers with Engineering and Shop personnel to act on these problems early on in new designs
Setting manufacturing processes for proto@type and production environments. Understands cutting forces and the effect on parts and fixturing. Demonstrates this in the processing of parts with proper tool selection, tool path, tool sequencing, and fixture design to establish an effective and efficient process while maintaining close dimensional tolerances
Involved with the Advanced Quality Planning teams. Works as a team player to identify manufacturing problems, cost reduction ideas, and solutions
Proficient at operating and set up/programming the following equipment: helical gears in the CNC hob, G code lathes and mills (programming skill at an advanced level, good understanding of cutting compensation, work coordinate system, and 4th axis mill work)
Proficient at operating the following equipment: tool and cutter grinder, cylindrical grinder (capable of grinding outside and inside diameters and tapers) (moderate level)
Proficient at trouble shooting involute, lead, and run out problems on the hob
Proficient at inspecting helical gear and spline involutes on the M & M Involute inspection equipment
Able to design and fabricate moderate level hydraulic and pneumatic fixtures for proto@type and production processes. Understands the effect of cutting forces on the part and fixture, and demonstrates this in the fixture design
Sets up broaching machine for broaching spline with little or no trouble at all, at advanced level
Sets up shaper machine for shaping internal or external gears or splines with little or no troubles at all, at advanced level
Sets up roll forming machine for cold forming external splines with little or no troubles at all, at advanced level
Understands spline data, whether it's pilot diameter for broaching, pre-roll diameters for cold forming and the effect heat treat will have on splines.
Understand spiral and hypoid bevel and straight bevel gears processes and manufacturing operations that confer with roll testing patterns
Evaluates tooling orders received to determine whether tooling should/can be manufactured in-house or procured from outside vendor and processes parts with proper allowances (grind stock, plating allowance, pre-roll diameters, etc.)
Calculates and records tool requirement data carefully in order to promote continual process improvement
Tests assembled mechanisms for fit and function and able to find the source of any problems found
Involved with AQP meetings. Able to study blueprints and assembly drawings, recognize manufacturing problems and cost reduction ideas. Works well with the team to brainstorm solutions
Demonstrates coaching abilities in the workplace
Demonstrate leadership and commitment to quality initiatives
Understands programs and what the program is doing to part
Maintains a clean and organized work area and safe shop environment
Performs preventive maintenance to shop equipment
Demonstrate commitment to the TEAM Industries Quality Management system and Objectives
Promote a positive atmosphere. Actively support activities that promote the welfare and morale of TEAM employees.
Will be required to perform other duties as requested, directed or assigned.
