Wire EDM and CNC Setup Machinist - Tooling and Die Maintenance

Klein Tools Manufacturing
Elk Grove Village, IL

What a day looks like

You arrive, review the day’s prints, and set up a CNC milling station for the first run. Later, you move to the wire EDM, dialing in offsets and selecting the right graphite and tooling you pulled from a well-organized inventory you help maintain. Between jobs, you jump in to restore a forging die, square up a trim die, and check fixtures to keep production humming. You wrap up with a quick shop clean-up and document any notes for the next shift.

What you will do

  • Set up and operate CNC milling equipment for precision work.
  • Set up and run wire EDM for intricate profiles and features.
  • Operate CNC-controlled, manual, and automatic machines as needed.
  • Maintain and repair forging dies, trim dies, and related fixtures.
  • Track and replenish tools and graphite inventory.
  • Keep a clean, organized, and safe work area.
  • Support additional tasks as directed by supervision.

What you bring

  • Hands-on experience setting up and operating CNC machinery.
  • Blueprint reading proficiency; able to work from sketches and special instructions.
  • Your own tools suitable for the role.
  • Ability to follow detailed written and verbal procedures.

Machines and technologies you will use

  • EDM Machine (Wire) (Fanuc)
  • CNC Lathe (2-4 axis) (Doosan)
