(MSI) • Whitsett, NC • Aerospace | Space | Defense** Machine Specialties, Inc. (MSI) is a leading contract machining and metal finishing company that designs and manufactures sophisticated, cost-effective solutions to meet our clients' most demanding challenges. We manufacture precision components for the aerospace, space, and defense industries. Our company is located in Whitsett, NC, about 8 miles outside of Greensboro, NC. We are searching for an experienced CNC Set-Up Machinist who specializes in multi-axis mill/turn (turn-mill) machining to set up and run our DMG Mori NT integrated mill/turn centers. This is a specialized, hands-on role for a machinist who can independently take a job from blueprint to first article on these machines - not just load and run. This is an hourly position reporting to the Manager of the appropriate department. **About the Machines You'll Run** Our DMG Mori NT machines are integrated mill/turn centers - they combine full turning and full multi-axis milling in a single setup. If you have set up and run these or similar turn-mills, you know exactly what makes them different from a standard lathe or machining center: - **Fanuc control -** integrated turning and milling in one work envelope, running on Mori Seiki's MAPPS control (Fanuc-based). - **B-axis milling spindle -** a swiveling B-axis milling spindle with a built-in motor, so you're programming and setting tools for true 5-axis simultaneous work, not just indexed positions. - **Main + sub-spindle -** main and second (sub) spindle with synchronized part transfer - you'll set up done-in-one work, handing the part from the main spindle to the sub-spindle to finish the back side. - **Combined tooling -** live/rotary tooling and turning tools together, plus a lower turret on some models - tool setup, offsets, and collision awareness across turning and milling in the same program. **What You'll Do** - Independently set up DMG Mori NT turn-mill centers from the blueprint - work-holding (chucks, collets, bar feed), tooling, offsets, and program - and bring the first article to print. - Set and load all turning and live-milling tools per set-up instructions, and dial in B-axis positions, tool geometry, and work/tool offsets. - Set up and verify main-spindle-to-sub-spindle transfer and synchronized (done-in-one) operations. - Work to close tolerances and correlated dimensions, using probing and in-process gauging to hold aerospace-level accuracy. - Machine to dimensions and maintain close tolerances while keeping production on schedule. - Troubleshoot setups, tooling, and part quality; make adjustments and document what you change. - Communicate with engineering and programming to improve setups and operations, and help develop best practices on the mill-turns. **What We're Looking For** - Hands-on experience setting up and running multi-axis mill/turn (turn-mill) machines - Mori Seiki / DMG MORI NT, DMG Mori NTX experience strongly preferred; comparable Mazak Integrex, Okuma Multus, Nakamura, or similar turn-mill experience will be considered. - Fanuc control fluency - able to read, edit, and prove out programs at the machine. - 5+ years of CNC machining experience in a job shop, preferred. - Experience with 5-axis CNC machines, and comfort managing turning and milling in a single setup. - High level of blueprint reading and GD&T; strong grasp of tolerances, offsets, and correlated dimensions. - Detail oriented with proven analytical, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills. - Understanding of G&M Code. - Proficiency with conversational controls is a plus. - Able to meet deadlines while working under minimal supervision, with a positive, professional, customer-focused attitude. - Knowledge and use of hand tools and precision measuring instruments. **Available Shifts** - **Days:** Monday–Thursday 7:30 AM – 5:00 PM, Friday 7:30 AM – 3:30 PM - **Nights:** Monday–Thursday 5:00 PM – 5:00 AM (15% shift premium) - **Weekend Days:** Friday–Sunday 6:00 AM – 6:00 PM (10% shift premium) - **Weekend Nights:** Friday–Sunday 6:00 PM – 6:00 AM (20% shift premium) **Physical Requirements** - Able to lift up to 40 lbs. - Able to stand for extended periods (up to 10 hours daily). - Able to work 45+ hours per week. **How to Apply** If you meet these requirements and are interested in applying, please submit an updated copy of your resume to the email address below or apply online at www.machspec.com/careers. **HR@machspec.com** ## Skills - GGY AXIS - CNC Machining - First Article Inspection - Customer Focus - FANUC CNC - Problem Solving - Hand Tools - Tolerancing - Milling - Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (Gd&t) - Gauging - CNC Turning - Blueprint Reading - Attention to Detail - Tool Offsets - Okuma - Precision Measuring Instruments - Computer Numerical Control (Cnc) - M-code - Detail Oriented - Mazak ## Related - [Manufacturing & Production jobs](https://www.foundrole.com/careers/manufacturing-and-production?utm_source=ai_markdown)- [Machinist & CNC Specialist jobs](https://www.foundrole.com/careers/manufacturing-and-production/machinists-and-cnc-specialists?utm_source=ai_markdown)- [CNC Machinist jobs](https://www.foundrole.com/careers/manufacturing-and-production/machinists-and-cnc-specialists/cnc-machinist?utm_source=ai_markdown)- [Browse all companies](https://www.foundrole.com/companies?utm_source=ai_markdown) ## Related pages - [North Carolina](https://www.foundrole.com/locations/us/north-carolina?utm_source=ai_markdown) — 97809 jobs - [Metal Products Manufacturing](https://www.foundrole.com/sectors/manufacturing/metal-products-manufacturing?utm_source=ai_markdown) — 12049 jobs ## Browse - [Companies](https://www.foundrole.com/companies?utm_source=ai_markdown) - [Jobs by country](https://www.foundrole.com/locations?utm_source=ai_markdown) - [Jobs in the United States by state and city](https://www.foundrole.com/locations/us?utm_source=ai_markdown) - [H1B sponsors by location](https://www.foundrole.com/h1b-sponsors?utm_source=ai_markdown) - [H1B salaries](https://www.foundrole.com/h1b-salaries?utm_source=ai_markdown) - [Sectors and industries](https://www.foundrole.com/sectors?utm_source=ai_markdown) - [Jobs by career field](https://www.foundrole.com/careers?utm_source=ai_markdown) - [Latest jobs](https://www.foundrole.com/jobs/latest?utm_source=ai_markdown)
