Dimensional Evaluator (INTERNAL) LPCS LSBS Weekend Fri-Sun

Mission:To identify and correct visual / dimensional flaws in castings to ensure the final product meets customer specifications. Based on business needs, may be required to perform the functions of visual / dimensional inspection and straightening (along with their associated tasks i.e. hardness testing, UTT, targeting, CMM evaluation/disposition etc.) as defined on PCC Technique Cards, blueprints and other documentation.NOTE:The aim of this description is to recognize multi-skilled work which facilitates the flow of parts. Each employee is expected to apply an average of 20 percent of their total hours worked, performing on one or more secondary functions in addition to a primary “core” function.Examples:If your primary “core function” is visual dimensional inspection, then the secondary function of straightening must be performed a minimum of 20% of the time.If your primary “core function” is straightening, then the secondary function of visual dimensional inspection must be performed a minimum of 20% of the time.PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTABILITIESVisual / Dimensional InspectionObjective: to visually and dimensionally inspect castings in accordance with customer specifications and to ensure that only necessary rework is performed.Essential Job Functions:Follows Quality Systems and Technique Card requirements.Fixtures some parts and leaves others freestanding.Visually inspects castings as required.Dimensionally inspects castings for conformance to blueprint and Technique Card specifications using templates, micrometers, fixtures, gauges, calipers, ultrasound, boroscope and other dimensional measuring devices.Checks casting hardness using Brinell, Rockwell and other instruments.Marks castings to identify area needing rework, mill rates, etc. in order to meet dimensional and visual specifications.Adjusts fixtures, gauges and precision measuring tools to calibrated standards.Interprets CMM reports and performs other visual / dimensional functions as required to move part through production process. Works from established rest points for targeting.

StraighteningObjective: to straighten castings to meet dimensional tolerances and customer specifications.Essential Job Functions:Sets up castings on surface plates or fixtures.Evaluates the condition of parts using precision measuring tools, or CMM reports; determines the most effective method of straightening castings.Establishes datums to casting surfaces and fixtures on surface plates; straightens to a rotational tolerance.Straightens casting to the required configuration using a variety of tools and devices, including presses, straightening fixtures, profile templates, and power or manual tools.

Casting Repair and AnalysisEssential Job Functions:Make recommendations to resolve part non-conformity. May work in other disciplines to resolve quality issues.Performs other tasks as directed including blending of defect areas.Makes recommendation for part routing as required.

DocumentationEssential Job Functions:Completes and maintains a variety of records, logs and non-conformance reports and production reports as required.

SafetyObjective: to take responsibility for and demonstrate safe work practices.Essential Job Functions:Adheres to plant and department safety rules.Safely operates all equipment and tools.Identifies and reports safety problems.
