01.2017 - Current

Program and setup on Fadal CNC machines using Gibbs cam 3D modeling sofware . Repair die inserts for production . Check inserts for damage using indicators and mark them up and get them welded to recut to tolerance. I will program using Gibbs cam software to get the inserts back to original form or shape . Than I will stone the inserts so the aluminum doesn’t stick to the inserts . The inserts I repair are aluminum injection molds . I will have to fit at times and make sure the inserts have a tight closing so aluminum doesn’t flash out .
