You will be required to perform setting and operating duties in the CNC Turning section machining components from a range
of materials. The machine controls are mostly either Mazak or Fanuc. We have two Turn/Mill Lathes one of which has a Y
axis and sub-spindle. There is also a Mazak J200 Integrex Mill/Turn in the section.
Mainly you will be working prepared process and tooling sheets with pre-created programmes. However, you may need to
utilise your machine-side editing skills. Some knowledge of conversational systems (Mazatrol/Hurco) would be
advantageous. You will need to understand materials and machining techniques and be able to demonstrate an ability to
plan and execute jobs under pressure. Although not essential a recognisable apprenticeship plus significant post-training
industrial experience will be the greatest indicator of your abilities in these areas. Now
