- Perform flank grinding operations on precision components using conventional and CNC grinding machines.
- Monitor and control grinding parameters such as speed, feed, depth of cut, and wheel selection to achieve required surface finish and dimensional accuracy.
- Conduct tool and wheel setting, dressing, and balancing to maintain optimal grinding performance
- Inspect machined parts using measuring instruments (Vernier, micrometer, height gauge, profile projector, CMM) to ensure adherence to tolerances.
- Identify process deviations and implement corrective actions to reduce rework and improve component quality.
- Coordinate with the production, quality, and maintenance teams to ensure smooth workflow and machine uptime.
- Prepare daily production reports and maintain documentation as per standard operating procedures (SOPs).
- Ensure adherence to safety, 5S, and lean manufacturing practices on the shop floor.
- Support continuous improvement projects to enhance productivity and reduce cycle time in grinding operations.
Required Skills:
• Hands-on experience in flank grinding and understanding of grinding processes.
• Knowledge of precision machining, GD&T, and part tolerance requirements.
• Ability to troubleshoot machining issues such as wheel glazing, chatter, burn marks, and size variation.
• Familiarity with CNC grinders (optional but preferred).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
