Full Description
Lathe Engineer Maintaining Precise with Each Turn
Job Description:
A specialist in the configuration and operation of manual and semi-automatic horizontal or vertical lathe machines, the lathe engineer is a master of precision machining. Making high-tolerance finished parts like shafts, bushings, pins, and threaded parts from raw metal or plastic cylinders is your main task. Your "mechanical touch" the capacity to sense cutting pressure, change speeds by ear, and maintain accuracy through manual dial adjustments is crucial in this profession, in contrast to CNC roles. An experienced artisan who combines mathematical accuracy with a thorough understanding of metal characteristics and cutting tool geometry is the best candidate.
Key Duties
Machine Operation: Turning, facing, boring, knurling, and parting-off operations can be carried out by setting up and running standard center lathes.
Blueprint Interpretation: To ascertain
dimensions, tolerances, and surface quality specifications, read and comprehend intricate engineering drawings.
Precision Measurement: To confirm work at every level, use manual measuring tools such as thread gauges, Vernier calipers, and outside/inside micrometers.
Thread Cutting: Use the lead screw to determine and configure the gear ratios for cutting several types of thread (Metric, BSW, and ACME).
High-speed steel (HSS) and carbide-tipped tools should be hand-ground to the proper rake and clearance angles for a given material.
Work-Holding Mastery: Use faceplates, centers with steady rests, four-jaw independent chucks, or three-jaw chucks to secure irregularly shaped workpieces.
Material Management: Depending on the material being machined, choose the right feed rates and cutting speeds.
