Occupation Summary
This occupation requires the inspection of all materials and parts machined and fabricated from sheet metal, forging, extrusion, composite, etc., those formed by creasing machine and the various peening processes and chemical processes and painting applications including first article inspections as directed. Also required is the inspection, repair and calibration of standard and precision measuring instruments/ gauges, the inspection of tooling including jigs, fixtures, dies, patterns, templates, etc., including test run and first check of production parts.

Work Performed

• Determines methods of inspection and set up of parts which requires inspection from surface plate, tables, etc., and use of precision measurement tools.
• Determines machinability and availability of material for subsequent machining operations or further fabrication as required. Inspects parts when made up into complicated assemblies for their usability, interchangeability, etc., and prepare the necessary paperwork.
• Determines sequence of inspection operations and acceptability of alodine, anodized, shot peened and prime painted aircraft skins, panels and other parts, being guided by directives, blueprints, specifications, inspection procedures, standards and practices.
• Inspect parts to specification, and determines allowable deviations in dimensions and finishes when not otherwise specified.
• Inspects creased and shot peened skins, panels and other parts for uniformity of peened or hammered appearance for proper contour of formed parts to specifications.
• Inspects materials of all kinds, using necessary information needed such as blueprints, specifications, catalogs, purchase orders, standards (both military and customer), etc., and the use of precision measuring equipment
• Observes damage to precision measurement equipment and instruments caused by improper usage and transmits information to assist in correcting such practices.

Levels jigs, fixtures, etc. and inspects with precision measuring equipment and inspects for practicability by loading sample parts if required. Inspects tooling completely for dimensions, workmanship, adherence to tool design, engineering prints, shop practice and procedure, inspection standards, practicality, and coordination with associated tooling and parts. May make tool tryouts and other practicability inspections. Stamps and otherwise approves/disapproves tooling and prepares paperwork as required.
• Performs duties incidental to the accomplishment of the assigned task and hands-on hardware audits. Mixes sealant to specification requirements.
• Computer proficiency to navigate systems for labor charging, access work instructions, record completion of work, Paycor, MES, PII’s, etc.

Minimum Qualifications

• Two (2) years machinist experience or other close tolerance machinist experience and demonstrated ability to read and interpret specifications and blueprints and make analytic mathematical calculations.
