What does a CNC cutter do?
A CNC boring operator is a specialist in machining metal parts using a CNC boring machine. Boring is a precise machining process by which inner or outer surfaces of a product are made to measure very precisely. As a CNC boring engineer, you work on high-quality parts that are often used in sectors such as mechanical engineering, aviation, energy and shipbuilding.
The work usually takes place in a modern workshop or production environment, where you work independently or in a team with advanced machines. You program CNC machines, set them up, perform measurements and check the quality of the final product. Craftsmanship, accuracy and technical insight are essential here.
Main duties and responsibilities
A CNC boring engineer is responsible for the entire boring process. The following work is typical for this position:
- Reading and interpreting technical drawings
- Programming and setting up CNC boring machines
- Machining metal parts according to specifications
- Checking dimensions and tolerances with measuring tools
- Maintaining machines and tools
- Reporting deviations or errors in the production process
- Thinking along about process improvements and quality
At Euro Planit, we regularly mediate CNC boring machines for both large production companies and specialised machine builders. Our clients are looking for professionals who can work independently and show a sense of responsibility.
What sectors can you work in?
As a CNC boring engineer, you can work in various technical sectors where metalworking is central. Think of:
- Machine and equipment construction
- Aerospace industry
- Energy and offshore sector
- Shipbuilding
- Automotive industry
- Heavy construction and steel construction
Within these sectors, the demand for experienced CNC boring machines is high. Companies are looking for specialists who can perform complex operations on large or high-precision parts. Euro Planit cooperates with several organisations in the east and north of the Netherlands that are looking for skilled boring workers.
What training do you need?
For the position of CNC boring engineer, a technical education at MBO level is desired, preferably in the field of metalworking, mechanical engineering or machining. Think of:
- MBO Machining Technology
- MBO Mechanical engineering
- MBO Precision Technology
- Professional training in CNC machining
In addition to training, practical experience with boring machines, preferably with CNC controls, is often required. Knowledge of specific control systems such as Heidenhain, Siemens or Fanuc is also a plus. Euro Planit will gladly look with you for positions that match your level of knowledge and ambition.
Which skills are important?
A CNC boring operator must not only be technically proficient, but also have specific skills needed to work accurately and safely. Important competences include:
- Accuracy and attention to detail
- The ability to work independently
- Problem-solving thinking
- Sense of responsibility
- Technical insight and knowledge of materials
- Experience with measuring tools
- Reading technical drawings
Communication is also important: you need to consult with colleagues, team leaders and sometimes engineers about work pieces and machining methods.
