What is the difference between Modern Machining vs CNC Machinist?

AspectModern MachiningCNC Machinist
CredentialsHigh school diploma or equivalent; technical trainingHigh school diploma; technical training or certification often preferred
Work EnvironmentManufacturing shops, machine shops, factoriesManufacturing facilities, machine shops, production environments
Job FocusOversees various machining processes, manages equipment, ensures qualityOperates CNC machines, programs, and maintains CNC equipment
Common UsageBroader role including supervision and process managementSpecialized role focused on CNC machine operation

Modern Machining involves overseeing multiple machining processes and managing equipment, often requiring broader skills and responsibilities. CNC Machinists focus specifically on operating and programming CNC machines. Both roles are essential in manufacturing, but Modern Machining typically encompasses a wider scope of duties compared to the specialized CNC Machinist role.

What are some common challenges faced by professionals in modern machining, and how can they be addressed?

Professionals in modern machining often encounter challenges such as staying updated with rapidly evolving CNC technology, maintaining tight tolerances, and ensuring efficient workflow in fast-paced environments. Addressing these challenges involves ongoing training in advanced machinery, adopting lean manufacturing principles, and collaborating closely with engineers and quality control teams. Embracing continuous learning and clear communication within cross-functional teams can help machinists adapt to new processes and maintain high standards of precision and productivity.

What is modern machining?

Modern machining refers to the use of advanced technology and computer-controlled equipment to shape and fabricate metal and other materials with high precision. This includes techniques such as CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machining, laser cutting, waterjet cutting, and electrical discharge machining (EDM). These methods offer improved accuracy, efficiency, and the ability to produce complex parts that would be difficult or impossible with traditional machining methods. Modern machining is widely used in industries like aerospace, automotive, and medical device manufacturing.

What You'll Do
  • Perform full setup and operation of CNC mills (lathe experience also valued)

  • Background in tight-tolerance industries (hydraulics, aerospace, defense) is a plus
  • CNC programming or editing experience

We believe performance should be rewarded - and we make it meaningful.
Our Quarterly STI Program provides a target payout of 5%, with the opportunity to earn between 0% and 10% based on both company performance and your individual contributions. Bonus is paid on gross earnings in each quarter. The more the work the more you earn.

  • Quality - Getting it right the first time
  • Revenue - Supporting output that drives company growth
  • On-Time Delivery - Hitting commitments and keeping customers running
  • Attendance - Showing up and supporting the team
