Setter cum Operator – 5 Axis CNC (5-Axis Setter/Operator)

Setter cum Operator – 5 Axis CNC (5-Axis Setter/Operator)

Kannan Tools & Dies

Position Overview

The Setter cum Operator – 5 Axis CNC is responsible for setting up, operating, and monitoring advanced 5-axis machining centers to manufacture complex, high-precision components.

This role includes machine setup, multi-axis toolpath validation, tool setting, offset adjustments, fixture alignment, and in-process inspection to meet aerospace, medical, oil & gas, and engineering standards.

The responsibility is highly skilled and requires strong technical understanding of 3D surfaces, complex geometries, and multi-axis machining operations.

• Set up 5-axis machines (trunnion/tilt-rotary table/head-table configurations) with fixtures, tools, and references.
• Load and verify CAM-generated 5-axis programs.
• Perform dry-run simulations to confirm toolpaths, rotations, tilts, and safe clearance.
• Set work offsets, tool length offsets, dynamic work offsets (DWO/G68.2), and rotary axis alignment.
• Operate 5-axis CNC machines for machining of contours, 3D profiles, pockets, undercuts, and multi-face operations.
• Execute machining as per process sheets and complex part requirements.
• Optimize toolpath parameters at machine level when required.Maintain stable machining with minimal chatter, vibration, or spindle load issues.
• Monitor spindle load, axis movement, vibration, coolant flow, and machining sound.
• Troubleshoot machining issues related to surface defects, chatter, burrs, dimensional errors, or tool failures.Report machine, spindle, or axis issues immediately to maintenance and reporting supervisors.
• Maintain setup sheets, tool lists, tool change logs, and job cards.
• Record dimensional results, deviations, rework, and machining changes.
• Provide detailed shift handover notes to ensure continuity.

Education

• ITI / Diploma in Machinist, Mechanical, Production, or related trade.
• Additional certification in CNC multi-axis machining is preferred.

Experience

• 3–8 years of experience in CNC machining, with minimum 2 years on 4-axis/5-axis machines.
• Experience in aerospace, medical devices, or high-precision engineering components is strongly preferred.

Skills

• Strong knowledge of 5-axis machining principles, tilting/rotary axis functions, and coordinate transformations.
• Ability to read and interpret complex engineering drawings, GD&T, and 3D CAD models.
• Proficiency in using precision measuring instruments.
• Good understanding of cutting tools for 3D machining—ball nose, bull nose, step tools, etc.
• Exposure to Fanuc, Siemens, Heidenhain, or Mazak 5-axis controls.
