  • Select, install, and align the correct punches and dies based on material type and thickness.

  • Adjust back gauges, ram depth, bend angles, and machine stops to achieve precise bend lengths and part dimensions.

  • Load production programs and make machine adjustments as necessary to ensure quality parts.

  • Verify first-piece inspections and perform in-process quality checks.

  • Understand material behavior and compensate for springback when bending sheet metal.

  • Produce precision sheet metal components while maintaining quality and production standards.

  • Perform routine machine maintenance and maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area.

  • Collaborate with engineering and production teams to resolve fabrication issues and improve processes.
