We are working with a Wiltshire-based client who are looking for experienced CNC Machinists with 5-axis experience to join their manufacturing team on a contract basis. This role sits at the heart of their production capability, translating complex engineering designs into high-precision physical components to exacting tolerances and quality standards. Key areas of focus include: * Setting up machines with the correct tools and fixtures and fine-tuning G codes, speeds and feeds to ensure programs run correctly * Feeding back recommended changes to cutter paths, cutting tools, speeds and feeds to the CNC Programmer based on material properties and machining requirements * Operating multiple machines in parallel where cycle times permit * Checking first parts with inspection before full batch runs, with close attention to tool wear * Identifying and recommending process improvements to enhance efficiency, reduce cycle times and maintain high yield and quality output * Maintaining detailed setup sheets and process parameters for continuous improvement What they're looking for: * 5-axis CNC machining experience is essential - Rotary Table 5-axis and Gantry 5-axis * Experience on 3-axis machines and the ability to cover Turning is an advantage * Strong understanding of machining processes, materials and tooling * Familiarity with XYZ, DMG Mori DMU, Hardinge Bri...
