CNC Programmer Job Description

A CNC programmer is an individual or team who creates programs for the CNC equipment.

These instructions tell the CNC equipment how to perform the machining process.

CNC stands for Computer Numerical Control.

Many CNC programmers work in manufacturing environments where tasks are performed manually.

A CNC programmer manually designs the programs that tell the CNC equipment how to perform the machining process.

After a technician programs the CNC equipment, the CNC programmer tests the programs and makes sure that the program performs correctly.

If the program doesnt perform correctly, the technician runs the program again until it does.
