Royce-Ayr Cutting Tools is a Cambridge manufacturer of precision cutting tools. We build custom and standard tooling, including solid carbide router bits and PCD-tipped (polycrystalline diamond) tools, for demanding machining applications, from our shop on Sheldon Drive.

We are looking for an experienced CNC Grinding Machinist to set up and run our Walter Helitronic and Vollmer VGrind CNC tool grinders, grinding solid carbide cutting tools, such as spiral router bits and end mills, from blank rod to finished tool.

Shift: Day shift to start. The role may move to afternoon shift later.

What you will do:

- Set up and run Walter Helitronic and Vollmer VGrind CNC tool grinders
- Load blanks, run jobs and keep the robot loaders supplied
- Grind flutes, cutting edges, clearances and points on solid carbide tools to print
- Measure your own work with micrometers, calipers and gauges, and hold the tolerance
- Make offset adjustments and change and dress grinding wheels
- Work with tool programs in NUMROTO and Walter Helitronic Tool Studio
- Read prints and work instructions
- Inspect, label and package finished tools,



and keep the machines and work area clean

What you bring:

- At least 2 years of CNC grinding experience
- Comfortable with measurement and shop math, including working in thousandths of an inch
- Good attention to detail. You would rather check a tool twice than pass a bad one
- Reliable attendance
- Willing to work afternoon shift if the role moves
