CNC Turning Setter

An established engineering company is growing its turning team and is looking for two skilled CNC Turning Setters to help handle a steady workload and keep production running smoothly.

This role suits a hands-on setter who enjoys getting a job set up correctly the first time: reading the drawing, loading the tools, setting offsets and producing accurate parts to tight tolerances. You’ll be working on CNC lathes, ideally Doosan Puma and Haas machines, and you’ll be responsible for both setting and operating them.

• Set up and operate CNC turning machines (lathes) for production runs
  
• Read and interpret technical drawings to set up each job correctly
  
• Carry out tool changes and set and adjust tool offsets
  
• Produce quality parts to drawing specifications and hold tight tolerances
  
• Read CNC programs to understand and check the machining sequence, and make basic edits where needed
  

Requirements

• Proven experience setting and operating CNC turning machines (lathes)
  
• Ability to read and interpret technical drawings
  
• Hands-on experience with tool changes and offsets
  
• Track record of producing quality work to drawing specifications and tight tolerances
  
• Ability to read CNC programs
  
• Basic program editing is advantageous
  
• Experience with Fanuc controls is advantageous
  
• Experience on Doosan Puma and Haas lathes is preferred
