• Material Adaptation: Selecting speeds/feeds for carbon steel, stainless, and alloy steels.
🎓 **Requirements:**
• Proven experience in finish turning and maintaining concentricity on long parts.
• Ability to control chatter and select cutting parameters that prevent vibration.
• Strong measurement discipline and accountability for parts that go straight into customer equipment.
