SUMMARY

The CMM (Coordinate Measuring Machine) Programmer is responsible for developing, operating, and maintaining CMM programs to ensure precise measurement and inspection of aerospace components. The role involves collaborating with engineering, quality, and manufacturing teams to inspect high-precision parts, verify compliance with technical specifications, and maintain strict adherence to aerospace quality standards.

ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS

• Develop and implement CMM programs using software such as PC-DMIS, Calypso, PolyWorks, Verisurf, SpatialAnalyzer or other relevant platforms to inspect aerospace components based on technical drawings and specifications.
• Conduct first-article inspections (FAI), in-process, and final inspections using CMM to verify dimensional accuracy, geometric tolerances, and conformity to aerospace industry standards (AS9100, ISO, etc.).
• Document and analyze CMM measurement results, generate detailed inspection reports, and collaborate with quality engineering teams to ensure product conformance.
• Ensure CMM equipment is calibrated, maintained, and functioning at optimal levels, adhering to company protocols and safety regulations.
• Work closely with engineers, machinists, and quality control teams to provide insights into potential design improvements or process optimizations based on inspection data.
• Troubleshoot measurement discrepancies and modify programs or equipment as needed to improve efficiency and accuracy of inspection processes.
• Participate in process improvement initiatives, contributing to higher quality standards, reduced defects, and improved inspection workflows.
