Turret Programmer

Job Purpose:

To develop, optimize, and maintain CNC programs for turret punch press machines (e.g., Amada, Trumpf, LVD, Murata), ensuring efficient, accurate, and high-quality sheet metal component manufacturing while maximizing material utilization and machine productivity.

Key Responsibilities:

• Programming & Tooling
• Prepare CNC programs for turret punch presses using CAD/CAM software (e.g., Amada AP100, VPSS 3i Punch, Radan, Jetcam, SigmaNEST).
• Select appropriate punches, dies, and forming tools; manage turret tool layouts.
• Create and maintain standard tooling libraries.
• Optimize tool paths to minimize cycle time, tool wear, and collisions.
• Nesting & Material Utilization
• Develop efficient nesting layouts to maximize sheet utilization and minimize scrap.
• Plan jobs based on material availability, thickness, and production schedules.
• Drawing & Design Interpretation
• Interpret 2D/3D CAD drawings, blueprints, and technical specifications.
• Convert design models into flat patterns suitable for turret punching.
• Process Optimization
• Conduct offline program simulations to detect errors and collisions.
• Continuously improve punching sequences and nesting strategies.
• Work with production to reduce setup times and improve throughput.
• Collaboration & Support
• Provide setup sheets, machine instructions, and tooling details to operators.
• Assist operators in resolving issues related to programs or machine performance.
• Collaborate with design, production, and quality teams to ensure manufacturability.
• Documentation & Compliance
• Maintain program database, version control, and documentation.
• Ensure compliance with company quality standards, ISO procedures, and safety norms.

Key Skills & Competencies:

• Strong knowledge of sheet metal fabrication processes.
• Hands-on experience with CNC turret punch presses (Amada, Trumpf, etc.).
• Proficiency in CAD/CAM software (AutoCAD, SolidWorks, AP100, Radan, etc.).
• Understanding of G-code/M-code (basic editing if required).
• Knowledge of different turret tools (round, oblong, cluster, nibbling, forming tools).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Attention to detail, accuracy, and productivity focus.
