Position Summary
The Manufacturing Engineer is responsible for transforming high-precision fixture designs into physical assets with a focus on technical excellence and financial efficiency. This role requires a blend of advanced CNC/CAM expertise and rigorous project management to ensure parts are machined "Right First Time" within the estimated budget and hours.
Core Responsibilities
- CNC / CAM & Process Strategy
- High-Precision Programming: Develop 3-axis and 5-axis CNC programs using advanced CAM software, optimizing tool paths for surface finish and accuracy.
- Manufacturing Methods: Identify the most efficient manufacturing sequence to ensure dimensions meet customer specifications (±5 to ±10 microns).
- Surface Treatment Planning: Calculate and apply accurate machining allowances to account for post-processing requirements like Hard Anodizing, ENP, or Heat Treatment.
- Material Expertise & Development
- Metallic Machining: Implement specialized cutting strategies for Stainless Steel (work-hardening prevention)
and Aluminium (high-speed machining with superior surface finish).
- Non-Metallic & Polymer Development: Lead the machining and development of TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) and other engineering plastics. This includes managing material compression during clamping and selecting razor-sharp tooling to prevent "burring" or melting.
- Distortion-Free Machining: Develop specialized workholding and stress-relieving machining sequences to prevent warping in thin-walled components.
- Production Control & Cost Management
- Machining Hour Control: Monitor and control actual machining hours against the pre-defined Estimated Man-Hours. Identify variances and implement corrective actions to prevent cost overruns.
- Efficiency Audits: Continuously review CNC cycle times and setup procedures to align shop-floor performance with the commercial estimate.
- Assembly Engineering: Lead the physical integration of mechanical, pneumatic, and electrical subsystems, ensu
