Position: Division NC Programmer - Turning (Ohio State)
Job Description
The MillTurn NC Programmer works closely with the Division leaders of NC Programming and NC Team Leads to develop highquality CNC programs for millturn products produced on vertical or horizontal lathes including multiaxis turning centers twinspindle machines and livetool capable platforms. The role includes designing tooling and workholding optimizing machining strategies and supporting proveout on the shop floor. The programmer ensures that all programs meet manufacturing quality and safety requirements while aligning with company standards and production schedules.
Key duties
- Develop CNC programs for vertical and horizontal lathes including millturn and multitasking machines using appropriate CAM software and based on engineering drawings 3D models and technical specifications.
- Create and modify 3D solid models from 2D drawings PDFs and customersupplied geometry when needed.
- Design tooling workholding and fixture concepts to support turning milling crossdrill and multiaxis operations.
- Optimize machining processes for cycle time tool life and manufacturability balancing efficiency with quality.
- Ensure CNC programs meet internal standards machining best practices and production requirements.
- Interpret and apply GD&T modelbased definitions and tolerance schemes to ensure dimensional compliance.
- Support program proveouts on the shop floor collaborating with machinists and manufacturing engineers to resolve issues.
- Understand and apply FAI requirements inspection methods and aerospace documentation standards (if applicable).
- Maintain knowledge of ITAR ISO 9001 AS9100 and other quality/compliance requirements.
- Work crossfunctionally to support new product introduction continuous improvement and special projects.
- Perform additional duties as assigned to support production and engineering objectives.
Requirements
- 710 years of CNC programming experience in a manufacturing environment including turning centers and millturn equipment.
- Strong knowledge of CAM software (CATIA Mastercam NX or equivalent) and postprocessing workflows.
- Proficient understanding of GCode and MCode for turning milling and multichannel machines.
- Experience with tooling selection insert application feeds/speeds optimization and chipcontrol strategies.
- Ability to design and document fixtures jaws and workholding solutions for complex millturn operations.
- Familiarity with Vericut or other simulation software for toolpath validation.
- Strong understanding of GD&T blueprint interpretation and metrology techniques.
- Proficient with Microsoft Office tools and capable of producing clear documentation.
- Ability to collaborate effectively with machinists quality engineers and production teams.
- Strong problemsolving abilities and a continuousimprovement mindset.
