Why This Role Exists

This role exists to support ongoing machining demand for large-diameter, heavy-duty components requiring precision turning and experienced setup capability.

The Vertical Turret Lathe (VTL) Machinist plays a critical role in safely handling large castings and forgings while maintaining tight tolerances and production efficiency.

This is not an entry-level turning role — it’s for a machinist comfortable with large-scale work and complex setups.

The Work You’ll Be Doing

In this role, you will:

  • Perform full setups and operate CNC Vertical Turret Lathes (VTL)
  • Load and secure large castings and forgings using overhead cranes and rigging equipment
  • Read and interpret complex blueprints and GD&T
  • Verify dimensions using large-scale precision inspection tools
  • Select carbide tooling appropriate for heavy-duty turning
  • Monitor tool wear and adjust offsets as needed
  • Perform in-process inspections to ensure parts meet specification
  • Maintain a safe and organized work area

This position requires confidence working with large workpieces and maintaining dimensional accuracy on heavy components.

You’ll be working with:

  • Machines: CNC Vertical Turret Lathes (VTL)
  • Controls: G-code based CNC controls

  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to precision
  • Dependable, safety-conscious work ethic

Preferred

  • Experience with large-diameter turning operations
  • Background in heavy industrial or large-component machining environments

---

Why Machinists Like This Role

  • Steady 1st shift schedule
  • Competitive starting pay at $26/hr+ based on experience
  • Specialized machining environment
  • Respect for experienced tradespeople
  • Opportunity to work with large-scale equipment
