Precision Blanchard Grinding Specialist
Step Into the Shop
Imagine powering up a 48”–100” Blanchard grinder, reviewing a print, and mapping out the grind path that turns a heavy plate into a precision-flat component. As our Precision Blanchard Grinding Specialist, you’ll blend planning, setup, and hands-on machining to meet exacting customer specs—all while collaborating with a team that values safety, communication, and craftsmanship.

- Verify dimensions using calipers, micrometers, indicators, and scales; record and communicate results.
- Interpret drawings, specifications, and grind instructions to confirm part requirements.

- Use SPC/statistical tools to monitor processes and ensure consistent quality.
- Operate overhead and jib cranes to load/unload and position workpieces safely; use forklifts as needed.
- Maintain coolant and lubrication levels and keep your area clean and orderly.
- Contribute to other assigned tasks that keep the operation running smoothly.
